Yeah the dash is a modded kit dash, the 3 gauge cluster is a resin piece, then sheet styrene used for the cover over the gauges and where the stereo used to be. I also have the monster tach with shift light for it as well.

Too late to join? If I am able I am doing the kitbash of the S281 Speedster and 08 Bullitt. It will have the bullitt body and some Saleen parts.

Have an update on my 08 cobra jet. Just got most of the interior done, all painted except the interior tub. I tried to use different finishes of black to detail all of the interior. I added a rear seat delete, and still have to paint and add the monster tach to the dash, and build a 8 point roll bar. Got the engine most of the way painted and assembled, along with the headers, and have detail painted between the spokes and assembled my wheel and tire combo, just have to add the "goodyear" decals to the rear slicks. I will painting the chassis, suspension, and the interior tub when the weather permits.

Haha Eleanor round 2. That is a cool idea, interested to see the body work involved with it. If you end up not using the front bumper from that gt-h kit, maybe gimme a holler, that is the bumper I need for my cobra jet, I'm trying to re-create it and it's looking kind of goofy so far.

I just think its looks cool, so figured why not, gives me another reason to do a mustang build for this CBP,

Well I am using the front bumper, as you will see in the pics , and here is what I have done so far.

Awesome.

Here is a shot of the paint I laid down on the 07 Shelby on the left, and an 06 GT on the right. The GT on the right is being built by my wife as a replica of her 1:1 car. This is her first model build ever so I did the body paint for her.

The 07 was shot with Tamiya white primer, Tamiya pure white, then two coats of Tamiya clear coat.

The 06 was shot with Tamiya white primer, MM Diamond dust silver, and the two coats of MM clear coat.
