cobraman Posted September 2, 2012 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Sumner Posted September 3, 2012 Share 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W-409 Posted September 3, 2012 Share 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
