  5. What tires are those? I like anything DSG just like my own 03 Cobra
  6. Looks awesome
  7. I like all of those a lot. Nice work.
  8. I've recently gotten back into the hobby after a little over a decade. I built model cars with my dad in my pre-teens and we both messed up a lot of kits. Nothing ever turned out nice IMO. I got into real cars when I bought my 91 Mustang 5.0 when I was 14 and the model cars were shelved. Recently my good friend Brandon and I (BrandoLSX) on the forum started talking about model cars. I told him I still had 40 or so unbuilt kits in my closet and the next day I started building again. I was at Hobby Lobby getting some supplies and this kit was on clearance for like $8 or something cheap. The box art turned me off even being a Mustang nut but I saw on the side it could be built as this drag car. I had to have it. I've done a lot of research on what people are doing to achieve great looking models on the forum and utilized some techniques with mine so far. I'm pretty pleased with how this car turned out. This was my first time using BMF, boy what a PITA but in a couple days it was done taking many breaks in between. But it's totally worth it in the end to make the trim look great. Paint was just Testors enamel gloss white and clear. I used Future on the windows and lenses. I scuffed the rear slicks for that "used" look. The directions say to paint basically everything black in the interior but I wasn't doing that. I painted what would be the chrome trim a real 68 Mustang would have bright silver on the door panels and dash for more detail. Hurst shifter, wood steering wheel etc. Enough babbling, here's some pics Brandon got for me. I used my 03 Cobra's roof as a platform. The kit
  9. Thanks Fred, yeah my 03 was my gonna be a pulley and exhaust only car that went overboard. It's been my labor of love the past few years. Some of the major mods are Whipple 2.9, Full return fuel system, two Walbro 400lph pumps, Killer Chiller intercooler kit, Stage 3 Snow meth kit, Full Magnaflow exhaust, Completely rebuilt IRS, all powdercoated and delrin bushings added etc etc. Hoping for 700hp+ when I get it tuned soon The LX was my first car actually, one of the reasons I probably got out of modeling lol. I bought it when I was 14 myself. Have had it 12-13 years now. It's got a full Trickflow H/C/I set, exhaust, suspension, 03 Cobra anniversary brakes, 03 Cobra sets yada yada. My baby I want to build a 1:1 of each and I can't believe no one has made an 03-04 Cobra model kit My buddy Brandon and I just recently got back into this hobby as it has been cheaper than our real cars I still had model kits I bought in my youth collecting dust and have gotten back on the horse in the past few months. Thanks Oscar!
  10. I want that model and a real one just like it
  11. My "Toy" cars are my two Mustangs. BrandoLSX on the forums Camaro and my car.

  13. Off to a great start it looks like!
  14. Good story and all the Willy's look fantastic. One of my favorite drag cars of all time.
  15. Where's the drooling smiley face? Continues to look amazing Tyrone. What color do you plan on painting the car?
  16. Looks absolutely fantastic Robert. Great job.
  17. I loved those altered wheel base cars. Very nice work!
  18. I want to get this kit someday and build it like my old Mark VII I had but Pro-Street obviously. Looking good, keep it up!
