I have a '68 Shelby in the stash but not a version with the teardrop hood.

Nice work - unfortunately I don't have a vacuum former or a '66 Galaxie hood.

Merry Christmas Rex.

Yes that does look promising - photo from the internet. Do all releases of the '66 Galxie include the tear drop hood?

Very nice.

Very nice.

Looking for a complete hood or a tear drop to install on a '66 Mustang hood. The AMT AWB Mustang has nice one but unfortunately it has a big cut out in the tear drop Competition Resin offers a hood but I think the tear drop is a little too tall Same with Lex's Scale Modeling - tear drop is a bit over done Revell T-Bolt is the wrong shape Yes I know I am being particular!

Impressive work Andrew. Thanks for digging this up Rex.

Agreed. It's an error that Esci made that I chose not to correct as it would have involved scratch building headers. I already invested much effort in other parts of the engine and the rest of the build. I'm proud of the result.

Don't know much about the Cosworth Vega but Cosworth also helped develop Ford's BDA engine. This engine is available in the Esci/Revell Ford Escort RS1800. Looks like it could be modified to represent a Cosworth Twin Cam. Here was my BDA after many scratch built additions.

Good looking project.

Very nice Gary.

Nice work Rich, which kit is it?

I am the owner of a lifetime warning point. I posted a YouTube video of a US TV commercial. It is what it is.

Great looking project.

Very nice.

Tri-Y headers

Carved a recess into the hood for air cleaner clearance.

Thanks Ray.
