DrKerry Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 (edited) Like I need to start another project, but here we go. 06 Mustang will have a Ferrari Modena chassis, interior. Let's see where this goes.... Edited April 13, 2014 by DrKerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Interesting cross-breeding. Are you going to stay with the Mustang's front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout, or are you going mid-engined like the Modena? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PappyD340 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Nothing wrong with him Oscar, he's just performing a little surgery, that's all, keep it going Kerry you got me interested now!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Cool ! Was wheelbase spot on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 Hey Bill, it'll have mid engine Modena power plant. The cowl area crowds up the Pony engine bay a bit much. Ray, yesthe wheelbase is spot on, no altering there..... Oscar?!?!?!?! Well I'll admit, yer right. But I'm so wrong it's good....sometimes!!!!! Oh and I changed up the rear end a bit, guess you could say I did a little Miley Cyrus on it, I twirked it!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'm looking forward to this. Great idea! Sort of a reverse Pantera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted December 16, 2013 Author Share Posted December 16, 2013 I did a Pantera with a Modena chassis awhile back as well. Now it's onto another Ford.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted December 18, 2013 Author Share Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks James, it looks different with the rear end changed, photos coming soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted December 20, 2013 Author Share Posted December 20, 2013 Ok, I have two hoods I can use on this, The stock one and one from A/FX Resins. My only thing is the hood from A/FX may be a bit out of place on a rear engined car. The flat stock hood may be a better fit for it.... What do you all think??? Chin spoiler is also from A/FX Modena tail section Opened up the lower grille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o-man Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 I'd say flat hood and maybe some Shelby style side scoops for air intakes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 If the Modena's hood had some defining characteristics I'd same add those to the Mustang hood, but since it doesn't, I'd go with the flat hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kucaba Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Very nice! I like these builds where a modern exotic gives up it's running gear for a different take on a common FE RWD set-up. I'd go with the flat hood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 Thanks guys, I was kind of leaning to the flat hood myself. The stuff I got from A/FX Resins has the sail panel vents (quarter windows) as well as the rear quarter vents, just didn't take a pic of them.... Thanks for the opinions, they really help me out!!!!

Maindrian Pace Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I say the stock hood, but with the center curved down for radiator exhaust like on a GT40. -MJS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyboy Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I say the stock hood, but with the center curved down for radiator exhaust like on a GT40. -MJS Hey that is a cool idea Mike!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKerry Posted December 21, 2013 Author Share Posted December 21, 2013 I say the stock hood, but with the center curved down for radiator exhaust like on a GT40. -MJS Someone on my Kustom Kemps site said something similar. Now this one from you, I like this idea too.... My only concern is how it will look with a tall looking nose on the car. The GT-40 and other cars with this look have a tapered nose on them...
