Nichimo Shelby Mustang restoration

I’m restoring this beauty and looking for a source for reproduction/replacement decals and front wheels.  More to come...

In 1/16 scale?

I have never seen these wheels aftermarket or in any other 1/16 kit.  I would also ditch the flathead motor for the one from the MPC 427 Cobra.

Thanks to both you guys.  I built the Cobra 427. It’s in under glass section here.  Luckily I have the alternate pieces for the motor so I will refit.  Thanks!

May'be, one day,  I'll find this kit at a decent price ...

Chris, I'm going to follow your restoration ...

I can just cast two wheels in resin using a mold of one of the others.  Truly a needle in the haystack of the world.  Probably never find one, let alone two.  That’s why I love scratch building though!
