I found a spoiler! It's off a widebody Vette, and turned backward. I have to fabricate the center piece because the piece off the Vette isn't long enough.

Good looking Mustangs.

Check out the "slot car" section too. It runs the 1/4 in .988 at 66mph

Mooooon

Great idea, i do have a couple of those. The only bad thing is a Moon tank won't hide the nut on the guide flag like a fuel cell does. I'll try to fab somthing up. I'm also up in the air as what to do about the rear spoiler. I still have the original one but it could look more aggressive. Suggestions welcomed!

Thanks for the comments guys. Here's a mockup of the engine.

Cut the model frame to fit.

Looking good, keep building. -
I also cleaned up the body and added wheel flares to the rear because the wheel wells were all cut up.

I want it to look like a big Hot Wheels car. The engine is a blown Boss 429 that i dug out of a junked Mustang

Almost done

Got the body from a swap meet. It will be another one of my flip top cars. It will use a WRP frame, Super 16d motor and 9/52 gears.

Fitting the engine

Now to fill and blend

UH-OH, the decals were made for a different body. My solution, add flares to the body and shorten up those front wheel wells.

Filling in the rear window and making the spoiler out of an old Trans Am spoiler.

Flopper! A lot of cutting and trimming to get the model frame to fit

ignore the gold wheels, they are my "set up" wheels

I got the body for a buck at the swap meet! I'm building a detailed flip top slot car like my Blue Max
