I've been playing with one. Revell kit in 1/25 scale. I took the engine and trans from the Revell Thunderbolt kit. Been getting stuck on the intake manifold. I want something different. I have been working on trying to do a cross ram, but with the third one not working. I just mite go with and stock one. I have filled the hole in the hood, added some bolts to the chassis and floor pan. Scratched a steering box and brake master cylinder mount and pedal. Started the detail painting of the chassis and will begin plumming soon on it.

Thanks for looking. I am 100% open for comments and ideas.

Jeff-

Looking good so far. Don't know why no one else has not replied to this. I like the idea of using the Thunderbolt engine and tranny. What about using the old "Cross Boss" intake from the 70 Mustang kit. I know that it came in a 1/24 scale kit, but did it also come in the Revell "Special Edition" 70 Mustang kit? Not sure. I also like your pedal set up. Was that a kit supplied part?

Keep it up and let's see the updates.

This is looking really good so far...I always loved these Willy's...you can go any of a million ways with them and they all look good.

What did you have in mind for this one..street...gas..custom?

You know, I can't remember the last time I saw one of these built bone stock...there's an option..
