HPP F100 (update 4/9/2018)

[426 pack]

This is what I like to call a what if project.

So I thought what if ford put the boss 429 in a truck? The name I have picked for it is the HPP F100 (High Performance package F100).  

The kit I am using is the moebius 1972 Ford short box and a boss 429 from a revell mustang.  

Comments welcom.

Thanks. 

 

I mocked up the frame today. I still need to biuld some parts of the exhaust and I am thinking of adding traction bars and different mufflers.

It is now sitting on its own 4 tires. 

Next step is to choose a colour. I am still not shure about the colour I want to go with. I am thinking about Blue, black or green. What do you guys think I should do for colour?

Do you have any pics of your project? 

The hood was my biggest concern with this kit when I first got it and thankfully it is not warped.

I got the interior mock-up today. 

I built a shifter and found a tack for it.

I painted the frame yesterday and got it all mocked up.
