cobraman Posted September 2, 2012 Posted September 2, 2012 Here is my Mustang Gasser ( style ) build. It uses the 66 Mustang body and the chassis from the Miss Deal model. Chassis was modified by making it narrower and a little longer. The stock chassis had the wheelbase pretty close but it put the engine way too far back. I had to get the engine forward so making the chassis longer was my only option. Doing this forced the front wheels way to far forward. While figuring out how to fix that I began to like the forward look so I kept it. It may be a bit stupid or unrealistic but it grew on me. I made the decals and the car is painted Icy Blue with an black interior. I also had to legnthen the drive shaft and used a piece of aluminum tube for that. Comments are always welcome pro or con. Thanks for looking.
hemi Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Actually I really like it.you did a great job on it.
Terry Sumner Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 I like it. But it's not a gasser style even...more like an Altered "style". Nevertheless a pretty cool model!
W-409 Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Very nice Mustang. You did good job with putting two kits together. Actually that wheelbase looks pretty good to me, even if I wasn't sure about it when this was WIP. Anyways, it looks fantastic!
Sixx Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Pretty cool!!! That would be a scary ride tho!!
cobraman Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 Thank you guys, I'm glad you like it.
Mister Twister Posted September 3, 2012 Posted September 3, 2012 Those Miss Deal kits come in handy for awb and gasser builds....Nice work!
cobraman Posted September 3, 2012 Author Posted September 3, 2012 Yes the "Miss Deal" kit can be used for some wild and interesting builds.
