hi guys !!!

after finishing the mercury the next model is on start:

i wants to built this boss stock, but after looking the tires and the rimes i have work with other tires and rims. the tires from the kit are on the rear axle to small but on the front side to wide for me. so i made resin tires form a other kit and made aluminum rims for the rear axle.

this is the stance now:

i will do smaller rims for the front axle or what do you think?

I like the stance. the wide rear magnum 500 rims are really eye catching.

one of my all time favorite model kits, in all it's incarnations.

building one myself right now, as a seventies street machine.

I'm going for more of a 'rake' than what you have going on with your kit.

those deep 500's really caught my eye though.

the way the front wheels fit right now would only work on a drag car where turning is not an option

if you are looking to build a realistic car however...i would go with a front tire that is less wide

or find a way to narrow the track :rolleyes:

hi guys !!!

now i can show you a little bit more from the boss.

i do the front rims also about aluminum on my late. now the deep is ok for me.

so they get 10 J on the rear and 8 J on the front. the resin wheels are also painted.

Well now,Jurg, THAT looks completely natural for that car. I remember the first time I saw a Boss 429, and it sure looked like THAT! Dark Blue and NUTHIN but engine!!! Belonged to a GIRL named Barb! She traded in a 68 HEMI Road Runner for it!!!In BLUE too!laugh.gifwink.gif

hi guys !!!

the next step on the boss, was the painting. after working with mr mark softer on the decals by the coling the decals are torn :) :) :)

the other decals on the cap i do without the mark softer and works good.

so next time i must look for new decals to make the coling new.
