Devilsnake98 Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 It's the latest Revell version of the 1993 SVT Cobra Mustang. Some box stock pieces, I've tried to change as much as I could to add more detail. Parted ot the Saleen Speedster kit for the supercharged engine, 6 spd. trans, seats, and other pieces here and there. Scratch built a 6 point roll bar, autometer tach, rear seat delete, cobra r style hood, cobra r style side dump exhaust, added Detail Masters braided steel line and fittings for fuel line, red spark plug wires (in correct firing order for the S351 engine), used Aoshima Work 18" wheels and tires. I've done subtle things to the body, shaved the bottom of the rear bumper to eliminate the exhaust cutouts, smoothed off all molded in emblems, smoothed in supports for the spoiler. I just painted it with Tamiya TS-38 today. I am gonna put on lemans style sripes from the front to the back over the top, and detail, then bury the body in Testors high gloss clear. The interior and frame sub- assemblies pretty much done, then the fresh painted body sat on the interior and frame for mock up. Any comments, suggestions, likes/ dislikes welcome.

Camshaft Posted October 28, 2011 Posted October 28, 2011 That looks really fantastic so far. Saleen engine & trim? Cool. Work wheels? AWESOME. I'm a huge fan of Fox body Mustangs and i'd love to park this one in my garage!
whale392 Posted October 29, 2011 Posted October 29, 2011 As a FOX chassis fan, this build has my attention (what little I can spare anyway). Looks good so far, and the scale difference between the Saleen motor (1/25th) and the Revell body (1/24th) isn't as noticeable on film as it can be in real. Looks good so far. If you feel like it, come on down to the FOX Chassis CBP thread going on and join in.
Abell82 Posted October 30, 2011 Posted October 30, 2011 Looks very nice, from what I can tell. It is very hard to see the detalis from those pics, however. Maybe more light and better focus? Different camera setting? Show us more !
