I was thinking the same thing, with the black, yellow and chrome you don't need the blue. This thing is going to be dynamic to say the least, should be beautiful Ray. 

What yellow is that? It looks very similar to MM Daytona Yellow. Whatever yellow it is, it looks just great on that car.

Thanks Randy. I see your in Colorado. I am going there in April for a family reunion. Staying in Estes Park. Looking forward to spending time in your beautiful state.

Well the clear dried and I was able to finish this one. Just to recap.. AMT Mustang AWB Funny Car kit, I stripped some of the chrome parts, got the seats from the parts box as I did the front tires, sheet plastic front and rear spoilers, lowered suspension, parts box battery, aluminum tubing for exhaust dumps, pre wired distributor. Used Duplicolor yellow and Model Master high gloss clear enamel. Comments pro or con are always welcome.

Nice job Ray! How did you get the stance lower? Suspension, or , interior tub, or , both?

Love that yellow man, it fits the car so well. Also like the Thrush 'pecker, fits the car perfectly. 

Did you mask off the wheels to paint the black, or , did you just paint 'carefully? 

Thanks,

Gene

Thanks guys. Gene, for the suspension I just simply flipped the rear end and modified the front axle. Not the best looking under side but it did give me the effect I was looking for. As for the wheels I just brush painted with metallic black.

You did a great job with this one Ray. It shows how much potential this kit has when you do a few little modifications and do great job during the buildup. I like the overall look with yellow body and black bumpers. Headers coming through front fenders is a good idea too. Great work.
