Wickersham Humble Posted July 4 Posted July 4 My daughter is putting Mustang 5-spokers (Cobra logo center cap) on her '57 Ford 'shorty' business coupe restomod, and I'm making a kit of it for a surprise*. Already found a pal who will supply a 5.0 V-8 to make it realistic, and need some rims like described; think they from approximately '09 Mustang. I have a lot of very old misc stuff to trade, or whatever works. *I'm also doing the body/paint on it, and am making progress -- at age 80! The new thing: battleship gray, but maybe pinstriped? My wife of 55 years has finished the seat upholstery, and working on visors, etc. with her walking-foot Singer. The kids are learning this stuff, as they'll inherit all the tools, eveuntally. Thanks!! Wick 2
Leica007 Posted July 5 Posted July 5 I did a search for 2009 Mustang 5 spoke wheels and got about 25-30 pictures of different styles. Most were 18 or 19 inch. These were photos of 1;1 wheels. If you could either take pictures of the ones your daughter has or look through the online search and post a photo on what you need, it would help us. I did find one 2009 mustang kit by Airfix that you could check out to see if the wheels are close. Lei
Wickersham Humble Posted July 5 Author Posted July 5 Lei, thank you; I'll get on it. The rims were FB Marketplace finds, I think; look much like 19' ARE five-spokers to old me. Wick
Wickersham Humble Posted July 26 Author Posted July 26 well, no luck. I'll repeat my request, if anyone sees this; holding up finishing kit replica until I can approximate the Mustang (Cobra center) 5-spokers, about 18-inch on 1`/1 car, I believe. Help? Wick
Maindrian Pace Posted July 27 Posted July 27 A picture would be very helpful. Tons of different Mustang wheels.
Wickersham Humble Posted July 27 Author Posted July 27 Looks like they're 17's. Hope these help! Wick
Can-Con Posted July 27 Posted July 27 (edited) OK, good. You need the wheels from this kit,, Or this one,, Edited July 27 by Can-Con
Wickersham Humble Posted July 29 Author Posted July 29 Apparently the rims and tires (17-in.) from the Revell 2006-08 Mustang kits: does anyone have a set they'd trade for? Thx!! Wick
Wickersham Humble Posted Friday at 01:21 AM Author Posted Friday at 01:21 AM Still need the rims/tires, if anyone has them surplus. Still have some trade parts. Wick
Leo64 Posted Sunday at 03:30 PM Posted Sunday at 03:30 PM If you know someone that can print 3D files for you, this is available on the Cults3D website. It says they are 18" wheels, but they could be scaled to 17" pretty easily. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/18-bullitt-mustang?srsltid=AfmBOorvK20TvswFYRBf57aUEjXrwnWeCyxQ-XSjosw3VAu-4d6CPR5I Plus you could scale a picture down for the Cobra emblem for the center caps.
