mustang1989

Man thanks Lloyd! You've got that right about the quality of the kit. I bought all of these old Street Demons kits knowing that fact and am in the process of revamping them. It takes a lot of work but they turn out fairly nice if a little ..................er ALOT of TLC is given to them. lol

Man thanks Andy. It takes a lot of patience I can tell ya that. I took a mock up off of the internet from Jegs and went off of that so I at least had a plan and model of what I wanted to build for it. I use it on all my dual quad applications now:

I'll be lookin' into that! Thanks a mil! Thanks Mike, Carl and Del!

Thanks Gino, Tom, Marcelo, Rob and Richard. Tom: I did look and I didn't have any "8" s that small. I see myself doing another one at some point in the future so I might acquire a decal sheet that does have one on it. Thanks buddy. Rich: I just couldn't help myself. lol

Looks like steady progress here bud. One things for sure, with that low parts count I don't think you have to worry about instructions. lol. Keep at it John.

I just couldn't help myself! lol. Thanks Carl! Dave: Thanks buddy! Ok folks it's update time again. I've been refraining from posting too many updates just because I wasn't spending enough time at the work bench due to snapping photos and posting all the time. I've till gotta install the seat belts/buckles, the steering wheel and some accessories here and there but I'm getting there.......... I'm probably going to be sliding that drivers seat forward a bit. Looks a little too far away now that I look at it from this angle in pictures.

Excellent creativity Steve. Over the top man.......just over the top!

Looks like you're off to a good start with this one Jordan. Looks like you've got all the reference material you need for the build.

Nice work on that suspension Rich. Stance is killer. Wow!

Looks like your paint came out really well Cameron. I didn't mention it before but using those jack stands in the progress shots was a cool idea. Looking forward to continued progress.............

Holeee schmokes!!! Man have I been missing out! I really like this car JC!!

Good stance, great paint and fabulous photography.

Well one things for sure, she should be very happy with that!! I built a kit for a friend of mine once and they are great gifts just because something like that can't just be bought. That's a good build there Kevin.

Ditto on that!

LOL! Thanks Ed!

And he busts out with the classics! I'll be watchin' this one Matthew!

I really like these planes Gino. That definitely looks like a difficult camo pattern. Good goin man! What scale is that anyways? I picked this up at the Houston show last year. I soooooo wanna build this.

Thanks James! I ended up painting two black dots in the middle of the white dot on the shifter ball and then I painted a white dot inside of each black dot to make that 8. Here's the 8 ball shifter so far: and then with the shifter boot:

Movin' on with the interior. I black based both of the seats and the console and will be painting the seats what will end up being a dark red color and the console will be gloss black. The shifter in the console was for an automatic so I sanded the PRNDL and the raised portion down from that area and will be installing a shifter boot from another kit and will be using a bobby pin as a shifter lever/ stick that has a black head/ ball on it. I formed it back towards the drivers seat in an "S" curve. I just didn't like the straight stick. After smoothing out the ball I've already got the white dot on it and have a small syringe standing by so I can put the "8" in the center of it. I couldn't NOT put an "8 ball" atop the stick you know. More coming on that shifter.....................soon.

That's a good lookin' powerplant you've got there Jonathan!

Oh man! He's at it again! Cant wait to see the outcome of this one Rich!!!

Sorry to hear that about your friend Rob. Sounds like a great guy and you're doing him proud with the build here.

Dang Bruce! That motor looks great. Lovin' the stance mock ups BTW!

That powerplant looks great in there!!! Jump back on it and stay the course.

I am going to use seats from an AMT 1988 Mustang kit that I just recently acquired since it has two sets in the box. I'll also be using the center console out of it as well. First off the seats sat too low for me. So I managed to snake a small Lego to use as a platform: Seat is right where I want it in regards to height after sanding the towers of the Lego down a bit: So with that.....let's add some carpet to the equation:
