Toyko Drift '67 Mustang

[RickRollerLT1]

Finished in March. Built from Round 2 reissue of the AMT 1967 Mustang GT. Obviously, no trace of AMT's own abomination of the TD car was even used here. This attempt was to get it as close to the movie car as possible. 

RB26DETT swap and exhaust came from a Tamiya Skyline R32 Nismo. Front grille opened up and mesh added. Parts like radiator, intercooler, ect comes from the spares bin while suspensions come from a C6 corvette and a Datsun 240z. Tires from Revell and AMT pieces, wheels come from the Revell Acura Integra with lips from a set of Aoshima wheels. Stripes are the AMT '67 GT decals.

Exterior is a custom mix of Tamiya Clear Orange over Mica Blue to replicate the metallic green of the 1:1, cleared with Pldege.

That looks very slick. I'm impressed.

Impressive conversion on the engine and chassis. The paint finish and color look great and the styling touches like the grill and body trim all look good.

Nice Mustang from the Fast And Furious. Great engine change.

If you want the correct wheels look for DiOlex on ebay.

Awesome job with a true custom! I particularly love how the independent suspension went in
