I made this aussie ford using a really rough glue bombed 70 torino cobra body which had a equally rough interior pan that was missing the dash and center console and front seats and chassis the was missing everything forward the engine cradle support and was missing the rear drive train and suspension I had to replace the front suspension and rear suspension and drive train and interior parts with ones from my parts boxes the dash Is a cut down and modified xc dash from a greenlight 1/24 scale mad max last of the v8 interceptor die-cast models the engine is a modern ford v8 from the monogram 99 mustang cobra kit with the manifold and carburetor and air cleaner from the custom roush engine from the Foose 56 ford f100 kit the new windshield i nicked from from my unbuilt new reissued 70 torino cobra which I am also turning into another aussie ford
the body I painted rust-oleum 2x flat black primer with a top coat of rust-oleum 2x gloss clear
I did the flat black stripes with a paint brush and matte black acrylic craft paint and used dead ultra fine tip sharpies and various acrylic craft paints to do the rest of the detail paint work
