Been away for a while but have been working on models here and there, got my Revell 93 cobra all wrapped up and has been on the shelf for a while, that's why its not so shiny right now.

Also have some small updates on my MPC 83 gt turbo 275 drag car, got the motor painted, built and plumbed. just started to build an outlaw cowl hood for it, the hole in the driver side of the bumper is where the exhaust will exit, have most of the chassis painted but not assembled. All parts that are on are just sitting in place for mock up pics.

And lastly some early pics of my newest project, of course the Revell LX coupe. Havent done much yet, just started cleaning up the body- got rid of the door locks and the 5.0 emblems, and got a resin cowl hood from Lex's scale models, fitted it and primed it. Thinking of using the 18" bullitt 5 spoke wheels from the 08 bullitt kit. The front tires are from the 93 cobra kit, the rears are from the fast and furious supra kit, gotta add a strip of styrene to create a larger rear lip to the rear wheels.

Just finished designing two new decal sheets for Mustangs and Drag Cars that you guys might be interested in. These should be available from Model King and many of the popular decal vendors by Christmas. These will be high quality silk screen printed decals, not Alps.

Awesome Fox chasis build here. The fox chasis Mustang is one of the great cars that I ever have, I sue to drive a '85 5.0 automatic GT, and I'll never forget this car!

Hi all..this was built for my younger brother to depict his 1:1 83 GT that he restored. I finished it and presented it to him on his 60th birthday.

The wheels/tires he chose are American Racing and Goodrich T/A radials. Also some of the original GT parts were no longer on the car when he bought it, so the model looks as his actually looks.

Looks awesome Roy.

Are those the wheels out of the Grand National GNX kit?

Thank You Mike

Sort of a funny story, those wheels are the 2nd set I bought for this build. Bought both off EBay, during final assembly I dropped 1 in my work area......never to be found.:o

When I found 2nd set the listing was for a partial chrome tree with wheels from MPC 1978 Monte Carlo.
