Perfect representation. Looks as if maybe a high school kid in the late 80's got it and tinkered with it a little.

I'm only 28, but I feel that the advance in technology in cars is what is making worse drivers... because if a car is going to warn you if someone is in your blind spot, or that you're going to rearend the garbage truck in front of you... to me, thats going to give the driver more reason to text and drive.. because they DONT have to pay attention. I think real GOOD drivers are the folks grew up driving 2 ton, manual brake, 4 wheel drum, manual steering, stickshift cars. I love driving stick shift even if my sciatic nerve doesnt. I drove my my dad's '65 Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe... 289 Hi-po, 4 speed, manual steering, manual 4 wheel drum brakes! it's a handful but fun! Redline of about 7,500 RPM.. Quite a bit different than my '93 Mustang GT 5.0, 5spd, with its power steering, 4 wheel power disc brakes, and a redline of about 6,250 RPM lol I'm not a fan of cars that do everything for you. I'll admit I multitask while driving... and I do text and drive (I'll admit, I do, but driving takes precedence over staring at the screen believe me, plus talk to text is AWESOME) But some people... just cannot do two things at once... I agree, the spirited backroad driving is some of the greatest... and I too, would never give that up. But, my hour drive to work... I could use the extra hour of sleep while my car takes itself there. Cars are about driving, to me at least... and I love driving. Like Reverend Horton Heat said, "It's the journey, not the arrival, that's I'm all about!"

Ran across this on Facebook... it's for sale on Ebay... and I want it! But, besides that... wouldnt it be freaking cool to make a replica of this? Does a Sport Coupe or Cabriolet 30-31 Model A body exist in resin? I have a real soft spot for '30-'31 Model A's and I want one worse than I need oxygen... I just wish there were more 30-31 kits out there. 5 windows are my favorite.

I would love to wander around and check out all those sweet old American cars still hiding out down there. I remember reading articles in Hemmings that popped up a lot about photos of really rare cars down there just chilling, and not really rotting that bad either.

Way cool!

Thanks guys! Back at ya! I can be slow at times with shipping and what not, but I'll get there lol

wow!

The dog dish caps from Revell's '70 RoadRunner should work. I used them on another model at one time as well. Should give you that look you're going for. http://www.amazon.com/Revell-Monogram-Plymouth-Road-Runner/dp/B00643LK10

I still have my charger packed in the box. haven't touched it.

I actually bought some Mustang II parts off of a guy that was building one of these in 1:1 form... very slowly lol. But it was going pretty well. Definitely an interesting swap.

I need a shoebox ford like oxygen....

I wish I could remember everyone that I've done a trade with on here, but I must say, very positive experiences with those that I have done deals with.

I signed up. Been really busy so I might not post much especially in summer, but I'm there.

Love it. Thanks for finding this.

Looking better every day!

I just wish I could come up with a good wash to create depth. I'm terrible at it. I would love to have a few bottles of grays and blacks around for that. Because I hate that my door jambs and trunk jambs are body color. takes all the realism out of it.. but if they're pitch black it looks fake anyway. I try to weather/patina/rust things how they would look in real life. I love looking at pictures of rusty cars and studying how and where the rust develops overtime on them.

Ive been wanting to get this kit, but have not seen any in my local hobby store lately.

Cool I need to find one of these! I had a '95 with the 5.2 and the crazy looking tunnel port type intake, almost looked like an old supercharger but without all the cool noises haha! Mine was light driftwood metallic with tan interior... man that thing would go, and go anywhere.

Nice spray booth! Is that basically a box fan with a furnace filter surrounded by cardboard?

I really need to pick me up some evergreen... I cant believe I've not made a roll cage for anything yet. This must me rectified! Good work!

Looks great! I'd love to find some of those rims so I can make an Eleanor clone. My favorite bodystyle of mustang... well.. besides all of them lol

I like where this is going. Less lowrider, and more function

I need a 71-73 like I need oxygen lol

that thing is going to look sinister!

Fred, that car needs about a half dozen 1:25 scale leaf blowers in the back! lol
