PEGASUS!!!

Pegasus is a Anti-Gravity Racer with Pod Racer Engines.

The Most of the parts are from the Monogram Mustang GTP Kit. The Engines are from the AMT Star Wars Pod Racer Kit.

I am going to take the Intakes from the Jet and modify them to fit the Mustang...

I cut the front of the Mustang off with a razor saw and got the Intakes off of the old plane without breaking them!

With a little trimming I got the Intakes to fit!

Ira, I'd give a lot to see you sit down and build a custom Batmobile.

That sounds like Fun to me... B)
