hedotwo Posted December 16, 2021 Posted December 16, 2021 Seems I've seen this particular spindle in another AMT kit but can't remember which. I need them both for the Cougar but could maybe expand my search if they're found in another kit. I know the 67 AMT annual Mustang's are close but not the same I don't think. Anyone think of another kit? Thanks
Can-Con Posted December 16, 2021 Posted December 16, 2021 Seems the same as the '68 Shelby Mustang kit.

Mark Posted December 16, 2021 Posted December 16, 2021 AMT '69 Cougar kit uses that same chassis. I'd just make them unless I had a partial '69 kit laying around to swipe them from.

I just looked at a later release 68 (in green ?) that I have and the spindles look similar to the 67 Cougar but not quite. The Cougar's have a square end it looks like, which wouldn't be a show stopper. At least, by looking at the Cougar's instruction sheet. I won't be able to compare them til I get my hands on the Cougar next week. It sure looks like the 68 Shelby's are the same as the 67 Galaxie though. Thanks Steve

deuces wild Posted December 19, 2021 Posted December 19, 2021 I think the amt '66 Fairlane 500 427 kit has those same ones.... I could be wrong.....

On your suggestion I pulled out a later release of the 66 Fairlane and while the spindles are similar they really wouldn't work. Besides, I'd hate to rob that kit when I could make the Cougar spindles fairly easily. Thanks 1
deuces wild Posted December 20, 2021 Posted December 20, 2021 Guess I was wrong... Again! ?? Sorry to put you through all that...
