roughed in chassis. It will look alot better soon.

some work on the rear end. modified frame rails, springs moved inboard and a different 9 in rear

This is just madness!! Incredible work!

sure Don. Its pretty easy but takes a few tries to get it right. I use red oxide primer as a base then put a dabs of brown,red and black paint on a piece of masking tape. I then dip a brush in each of the colors. I brush it on the tape then onto the area I want to do,so its more of a dry drush technique.sometimes I have some thinner handy and just dip the brush from time to time to thin out the paint some. the colors dont completely mix so it gives the darker and lighter areas plus some are more red. I do this until I am happy with the result then I spray it with semi gloss clear to knock it down a bit. I usually try and have every part I want to do ready so they all turn out similar. Give it a try.

thanks everyone. she is getting closer. got a few small sub assemblies done paint still coming along. should have updates pretty quick. cab will be done first,

quick mock up with some interior. should look good with a pearl black body.

and this one. have all the parts for this one just gotta get at it.lol

glad I found this build. gotta build a couple of my sn cars. this one

could you show me that process? you can pm if you like

one more

door panel. still have foiling etc to do

few interior pics. saddle tan with a ford king ranch saddle leather look insert. it takes a while to make that look. Its kind of a distressed red/brown. I have used it on a few builds.

I wouldnt go that far LOL. beautiful model but I got to spend time with the 1:1 while I was in the vault of the petersen museum in LA. I have a ton of pics of the stuff stashed down in the guts of the museum. here she is

Where did you get the wheels? Looks very promising

got some primer on it. still working on new rear end but its coming. started on the interior too. pics of that tonight

and both our manes are Fred lol

thats crazy!! polishing on going withh mine. I got some solvent popping on fender unit so wetsanding and re clearing that.

Headers are handled. Rear dump block huggers I had laying around. Have not much ground clearance for long tubes

I got the first primer coats on the body. it required very minimal cleanup. I got some filler on my rear frame section I had to make. I will have some pics of my progress once I get home from the rink

may I suggest cutting out the grille too. I did it on my panther pink convertible. I just used some mesh from a tamiya kit in behind and it looked pretty good. As for keith marks, I just talked to him this morning so he is around his computer to set u up with some decals

that model depicts an s351 yes. supercharger was a vortech s trim and was an option. the s351 was built in very low numbers in 99 then the feds cracked down. I have had the pleasure of riding in one of these and they are fun!

thanks guys! I will be keeping the 427 in it. the interior will be fairly stock but I will be using a few techniques I have used on other projects to make it pop. its going to be a tan based gut. body is prepped for primer now. I hope to have some color on soon then I will get going on the chassis while its setting up.

can I still enter?
