hi all just a quick update for u. A few pics of the engine just sitting in place at the moment.

and a pic of it out the engine, ive went for the nissan one as i beleave it makes it a bit more unusual and moew modern with the turbo. Hope im not ofending the mustang lovers,

And here a wee sneaky peak at what (hopefully will be up coming project)

Its a tamiya r33 skyline (curbside) which im hopeing i can convert to take the engine from a dodge charger i had laying around the engine will need a tidy up.

Hi all got a fair bit done to this today (my day off) had another change of plan. I kniow cant make my mind up. So the original engine is going back in

Heres the engine complete.

also got the chassis well under way, and a quick peak at the interior which takes the engine color in to the inside of the car. The speakers in the boot will also be blue too.

The interior will get some black paint aswell.

Got the engine in. and the wheels on amost of the chassis is done. And the seats sitting in place for the mock up. Im thinking of lowering the front end a bit as its sitting too high for me.

TOO HIGH

Hey all, just a small update (no pics) got the dash started and the door panels are detailed. One thing I would like help with is wiring (plumbing) the engine. Where do I buy the wire? Internet based as I have no lhs near by. Cheers Craig ps if anybody has pics of a similar engine wired please post here.

cheers all ps loving this kit so far going together really well

Hey Craig...you asked about wiring for the motor. Detail Master is a very good site for that detail. They have a whole bunch of 1/25-24th stuff for the builder in there. Here's the web addy.. (just click on it) http://www.detailmaster.com/ Scale Dreams use to make a hinge similiar to the one that was shown in an earlier post...but going to their site..I don't see them. Detail Master does make a Photoetch set of hinges. They do look nice. I haven't had a chance to use them yet. I'll give you Scale Dreams site also.You can go in and look around there too. We can't have to many choices..ya know? Hope this helps you a little Craig.

I'm glad you decided to use the v8 in this Stang. It's not REALLY a MUSTANG with anything less than 8 cyl..LOL

Thanks Gary I will get on there websites asap. Having a blast with this kit. One of the best Ive worked with. Thanks for stopping by with th

Links. And I agree with the muscle engine. Mustang is my all time favourite car. If I had enough £££s I'd have myself a gt500. Or any mustang really. Older the better: but I've got a crappy saxo instead. Lol. Dreams dreams.

Update time, interior is glued in. And chrome vents are on, just a few things left battery, glass lights and a few other bits till it's finished.

[vizio93]

Looking good I like the interior !!!

[cazxr2]

Chrome work and lights on, and also windows in, just a few bits under the hood and she's finished.

Probably the best kit I've had the pleasure to built. No issues other than it sat too high (for me) at the start. Next post should be under glass.
