Nice build! I love the color.

Both are very nice!

Very nice build!

For giggles I did a little non-scientific comparison of a pic of my model body, and a Googled pic. I kept the proportions the same relative to vertical and horizontal, but again, its not scientific. There's a definite wheelbase diff, with near identical overall length, which jibes with my actual wheelbase measurements. Based on the window trim it looks like the model door is too short, making the trunk too long. The body looks shorter vertically as well. I hope this helps with any decision-making, absent of personal preferences.

I'm planning on doing my '60 salt style. Good luck.

Awesome work!!

Still in awe!

Very well done!

I bought a open box on the cheap early this year and understand the issues with it. I''m right now in the process of building it and plan to go restomod, similar to Steve's post. All the negative comments (I've heard them all before) almost turned me off but like I said, restomod. My original plan was to use the Delray chassis w/MCW body, but I saw too many issues with it and don't think I'd ever finish it. The positive thing is, the frame is narrower than stock, so wide meats fit well. Molded in exhaust is a negative, for me anyway, as is the fact that mine is molded in green (ugh). I have seen a couple of these well done, so its not as if you can't build one to your satisfaction if you are not one of the more discerning builders.

Looking like a nice project!

Sweet build! I know your body work is perfect because MCW paint will show it all! Fantastic!

Awesome project!!

Awesome work!

Great job! Fantastic weathering and collision work!

Nice detail! Well done.

Very well done! I love the color combo!

Nice project. Great fabrication work!

Sorry for you loss Jim. They live on in our hearts though.

Awesome build Danny. It looks sweet!

Welcome!

Very nice build! Excellent work!

Very nice build. It looks very sleek! The paint looks perfect.

Very well done! It looks like one that sat at a house not far from where I lived as a teen. It never moved and I kept wanting to ask about it. Then one day, it was gone! Thanks for bringing it back.

Hey All. Sorry I haven't posted in a while but I didn't want to post every little thing I did so this is a catch-up update. I got some work done on the engine. I still have to plumb the carbs and add the plug wires, belts, alternator, and fan. Oh yeah, and I see I have to add the oil filler cap! Bodywork-wise I had to fill in the quarter windows, and the gap in the front pan that's on the GT but not the stock 'Stang. I've hopefully got only one more sanding session to go before its perfect. I also worked on the interior. I had to cut into it to accommodate the change in wheelbase. I added some embossing powder for the carpet but there are some spots I need to touch up. I tried my hand at converting the 66 dashboard to the 65 style. It came out okay but it needs touch-up as well. Thanks for looking.

Nice!
