Nice to see some more muscle Blue Oval cars.  The Torino kits have the best 429 engine (non Boss version) I have seen.  I also like when both side mirrors are included in a kit.  Many of the old AMT kits just do not have them.  Great job wit these John.

Great looking group; I'd like to see each one in its own separate post with more up-close pics... they each deserve it!

Each has it's own thread in the WIP section. I took more pictures, but my camera seems to have eaten them. I'm just surprised noone has mentioned the Boss 429 in the Cobra.

Doh.  I was assuming it was the engine from the kit and did not zoom in.  I have seen someone put the Boss 9 in a real Torino street machine and it looks like it belongs there more than Ford nd Kar Kraft jamming it into the Mustang.   I guess the stock looking non-ram air blue air cleaner fooled me unless you made the scoop functional like the Mustangs.
