Cesar Bossolani Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 (edited) Hi guys! Fast and simple build. Strip out side trims, smoothed and opened front and rear bumper, modified Aoshima Trafficstar 20". I hope you like. Thanks to see. Cesar Bossolani Edited July 10, 2011 by Cesar Bossolani
mrmike Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I like what I see here Cesar! The wheels look good! I opened up the grille on my Magnum and added a piece of photoetch behind it. I'm looking forward to more!

mrmike Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Cesar, I used 3/64 Diamond from K & S Engineering Stock no. 02709. Here are a few pictures.
Cesar Bossolani Posted February 1, 2011 Author Posted February 1, 2011 Thanks Mike!!! You're great! Cesar
miatamadman Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Looking good so far. Now get back to work on it so I can see more
Guest Sickfish Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 G'day Cesar! Foose style? 2-tone? Lovin' it! Mopar or no car! Wheels... Awsome! Cliffo
Foxer Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I rarely comment on wheel choice, but these look MADE for this car!
Cesar Bossolani Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 Thanks guys!!! Cliffo my friend! Will be black...Maybe I'll try something in paint... I'm not sure... Thanks bro!!! Plenty beers yesterday!!! LOL Coilovers done... Looks better than oversized Revell parts, huh? Mockup are finished!!! Thanks to see Cesar Bossolani
mikelo Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Yes, they look a whole lot better! Did you make these? Will they allow for lowering? Should look great when its done. Mike
Cesar Bossolani Posted February 2, 2011 Author Posted February 2, 2011 Thanks Mike!! Yes, I did it. ... but first I did all suspension modifications and assembly. Lowered... Wheels installed (last update)... After that I've decided turn out a coilover set w/ real mini springs... Got some reference pics, take some measures and did it on my lathe. They could be functional, but I don't want to make more mods in suspension arms. I would like to paint the body in this weekend. Magnum it is a unstressed project. Unlike Mustang... Now it will receive a newest 4-link system, because this Mustang is in stand by... (Thanks Cliffo!!!) Thanks Mike! Cesar Bossolani
Guest Sickfish Posted February 2, 2011 Posted February 2, 2011 Cesar those coil-overs look sweet bro! Wish i had a lathe You can't go wrong with black on black bro! Looking forward to this quick build Lol! Cheers Cliffo
shucky Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Cesar, as always nice job! Coil overs look wonderful! Keep it going man.

pharr7226 Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) The coil overs look great. I really like the uniform distance between the coils. Thanks for showing the components. Nothing looks as good as real metal. But, I think I can do something similar with plastic, a punch, and some Alclad. Edited February 3, 2011 by pharr7226
Cesar Bossolani Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) Thanks Rick! Yes you are correct... We can do that with styrene and I did for Mustang rear suspension in 2008... Now I wont use more, they are oversized. I'll do a new and correct size set... but I did a tutorial. I did some tutorials and you could find in http://s122.photobucket.com/albums/o278/bossolani/tutoriais/ Thanks to see!!! Thanks to reply! Cesar Bossolani Edited February 3, 2011 by Cesar Bossolani

Cesar Bossolani Posted February 6, 2011 Author Posted February 6, 2011 Cliffo cool option also!!! I'll try somthing!! Thanks my friend!! Some mods!!! I hope you like it! All feedback are welcome! Cesar Bossolani
Guest Sickfish Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Bro, it's looking sweet! Let's see some paint soon Just a tip Cesar... Get the headlight lenses fitted ( glued onto chrome surround ) before installing them otherwise they're very troublesome to get into place after the chrome surround is put in place This Magnum with your cool wheels & in black with a Hemi will be a cool looking hearse... I would love to be carried off in a black-beauty like it! Lol! Cheers Cliffo
Kanedge Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) Cool build, those wheels are made for it. Edited February 7, 2011 by Kanedge

Today I'll restart law school... my holyday it's over... cool tip brother, thanks... My most miserable things in my models are clear parts... Always I do wrong things... Cool build, those wheels are made for it. Thanks Kane!! Yes, they are... Actually, I did machined aluminium lips and plastic wheels mods right for use in my Magnum. I don't damaged chrome plated and they fitted like as glove. I'm glad, I'm still learning use a lathe!!! Cesar Bossolani Edited February 7, 2011 by Cesar Bossolani
gautreau Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 Cesar, great lookin' build as always.I have to ask what size styrene do you use to build your 4-link suspensions?Also what size do you use for all the brackets for them?
Cesar Bossolani Posted February 15, 2011 Author Posted February 15, 2011 I'm started interior mods. I hope you like it!All feedback are welcome! Thanks to see Cesar Bossolani

Thanks! You would like to know about Mustang 4-link? For bars I'd used 1.0mm and 2.0mm round rods, I did brackets from 0.5mm sheet... But I'll redo all of them... Today I got 3.0mm square tube. Gift from my super friend Cliffo!!! When Magnum will be finished I'll re-start my Stang. Thanks for interesting bro! Cesar Bossolani
