I start a new build report, the Hoonicorn Mustang is built. For this I got a kit of the 1966 Mustang from AMT. But from this kit I will only be able to use the body and some small parts.

I have already 3D printed a lot of the parts.

Here are the first pictures.

Then there are the first pictures with color and some things were built together.

I hope that I can inspire a few of you with it.

The bodyparts are made by me, but you can buy the other parts at cgtrader.

In the download file, the body is also included, but only as a complete part or in two parts. These are also too big for my printer. 

But I want to use the body from the kit, so I modeled this body kit as individual parts.

Today I'm going a little further.

 

First test.

The engine.

IMG_20230818_185132_(1121_x_1300_pixel).jpg.927c55e653ca5fccd50ff1c9ba731e38.jpg

The front all wheel components.

The dash got some color.

IMG_20230818_185149_(1300_x_755_pixel).jpg.bbf6ff6463c8b3defaf6dabee056bc05.jpg

Interior too.

Now I stand before riddles. I've been searching my fingers off for the wiring/hosing. Also, I can't find anything where the hoses/cables go from the red/black part at the front of the engine.

Maybe you can help?

Hi Marcel,

Hast nen schönen Bodykit gemacht und die Decals passen klasse.

Thank you very much. 

If I could now somehow get further with the engine, then everything would be perfect.

But unfortunately I can't find any pictures where you can see how the motor is wired and where all the hoses are connected.

Small update.

Tried to get the hoses done.

Painted the rims.

A few small parts.

Then tried to carbonize the bumpers.

Not really perfect, but I can't get it any better.

Hello all. 

Here it is now, it is finished.:)

Once together, the car and its creator / driver.

But whether I paint the figure, I do not know. Do not really dare me to something like that. :unsure:

Very cool! Exceptional creativity and execution. A fitting tribute to the genius of Ken Block. You gotta paint him.
