well after figuring the putty I had was old and bad(who knew it has a shelf life?) :) I picked up some new stuff and made the repairs to the roof where it cracked. I think it turned out ok. don't think I would ever take it to a show ,but It should make a good conversation piece. (you did what to a shelby mustang? :D )

Nice chop! Very clean assembly of the body. Is that a Dodge magnum roof line? or something else? Either way, it looks great! :o

back section of the roof is from a lexus. the full build up is on the bench.

VERY nice design and build!!!!

For those astonished at the idea of a Mustang wagin, it's not exactly a brand-new concept......

I saw one several years ago that used the rear portion of a 65 Country sedan roof, including those air deflector scoops at the rear corners that kept part of the back window clean.

Not detracting ANYTHING for your build, there was a similar build up of a station wagon Mustang in SA last year. His came out just as nice as yours.The lines do lend themselves to that conversion quite well. You did a GREAT job, looks like it would sell well in the real world! :D

thanks alot guys for the words. It means alot to me and helps motivate me to cut up somthing else. ;)

the funny thing is, this build was just a joke that worked out. ;) I was having a hard time getting motivated with the kit

and my wife came in and was saying give it to your son and get somthing else, well as a joke I said I'm gona make it a wagon. with the "yea right" as she left the room I grabed the saw and a doner body from the part box and went to it.

after getting it tacked together and showing her as a joke ,both her and I liked it, so the rest is history.
