Here is my rendition of the Scale Production kit, trying to replicate it as close to 100% accurate 1/25 version as I can of my 1:1.
This is my 1st thread, although I have asked a few prior questions to get the project off the ground. A little background history as to my obsession with this car....I have a 68 mustang which I've owned since 84 as it was my 1st car, which its currently in the process(6yrs) of its own build. I'll go into more detail of the car as we move along, but you can see it through my Car Domain site. I have literally replaced every nut and bolt and modified just about every aspect/feature in some form or fashion. The gist of the 1:1 is the 67 exterior, 68 interior and upgraded mechanic's.....Stroked 347,Paxton supercharger, Hughes Performance AOD, TCP front, UP rear, Currie 9", 03 Cobra Brakes, Be Cool twin fans, Vintage Air A/C....yada yada yada.
I have done this car in scale conversions over two dozen times(nothing with this amount of detail as mostly conversions of completed die cast), as my other obsession is trying to make this car in every scale possible...1:5 1:8 1:10 1:11 1:12 1:14 1:16 1:18 1:20 1:24 1:25 1:34 1:35 1:40 1:43 1:50 1:64 1: 87.......all the way down to versions I don't even know the scale as they can fit in the palm of my hand.
If your not familiar with this car, the only thing in the past that has been remotely close as to a starting point has been the Shelby 1:18 die cast version. Everything else that has been converted outside of 1:18 has started out as a 67 Shelby or just standard fastbacks. So this Scale Productions trans kit has been a blessing, But...... has opened many more worms than it has solved. If you haven't looked just about every piece of this model outside of this Trans kit has to be modified or scratch built. So with a handful of these things out of the way...I give you my WIP thread....
