Protouringjoe Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Started this project a while back. The kit is a 70 BOSS 429, but i'll be using the engine and wheels from a 2008 gt500kr, hence the BOSS 329 (5.4 liter). I bought a glue-bomb gt500kr, and I'll be using the parts from that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protouringjoe Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 I was very happy with how the supercharger fit perfectly in the hole for the BOSS 9 air filter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protouringjoe Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Found some nice fat tires in my stash, thought they'd look awesome on this build. had to cut the sidewalls out to fit the rims, and steal chrome rings from another set of wheels to give them a nice off-set. Also decided I'll be using the interior from a 2013 BOSS 302 that I bought just for the coyote engine when Hobby Lobby had them on clearance.

Protouringjoe Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Got the color laid on. One of my favorites, it's Duplicolor Ford mineral grey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Great looking build. Perfect stance and the color looks perfect for this style of build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protouringjoe Posted January 26, 2019 Author Share Posted January 26, 2019 Tinted the glass, first time I've ever successfully pulled this off. I found the trick is to use Tamiya and NOT modelmasters... Also had to make some custom tubs for the huge rear tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I hope I still have that cool stance once the chassis is assembled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mod3l Lover Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Very cool build indeed Joe!! The concept in itself is a unique one for sure, and you put it all together so very nicely too! The color is just right for that car, the louvers look great with that color. The '70 and the '69 Mustangs are my absolute favorites. David S.
