    Thank you very much! I forgot to mention that the paint is Tamiya Light Gray Primer with Tamiya TS-13 clear. This is a photo of the chassis.

    Hi, all; In honor of 4/29 Day, I'm posting this recently - completed 2008 Mustang. It started out as a Revell Bullitt kit (many thanks to Bruce @ Rocketfin Hobbies!). I read an article on how Jon Kaase took a 2008 GT and dropped one of his Boss Nine engines into it. He was able to accomplish this and retain the stock hood, so I decided to try it in scale. With the exception of the engine, transmission, driveshaft and exhaust system, the model is stock. I used the basic engine block, heads and valve covers from an old Johan Mercury Comet pro stock kit, a Revell Viper T-56 transmission, a driveshaft comprised of K & S aluminum tubing and parts box u-joints. I also used Oatey plumbing solder and Machined Aluminum Specialties (MAS) Scaletrapp mufflers for the exhaust system. The battery is a Greg Olsen 3D printed item, the intake manifold and headers are from the parts box. The carb is an aftermarket Demon unit. Thanks for looking and comments welcome.

    Unfortunately, no; that car was built back in 1973.

    Many years ago, a friend of mine had a 69 Nova that started out with a six cylinder; when he was finished with it, it had a built 427 big block and an M-22 four speed. Your model reminded me of his car. Very nice build!

    Your Cyclone is totally cool! It does look like a how a car from the Seventies would've appeared in a publication like Car Craft.

    Like Einstein said, "Knowledge will take you from A to B; imagination will take you everywhere." Very nicely done, sir!
