Hawk312 Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Some of you who have been on other building forums for a while may remember a while back, like over a decade ago, I built an Eleanor inspired `66 Fastback. I had another kit of the `66 lying around for years, and I wanted to do everything I feel I missed and correct some of my mistakes on the previous one. The was the intent. However, it sort of evolved to what you see here, and it turned into a decent in-between project, IMO. Alot of parts were used from the GT500 kit, including the interior and engine. Many parts were scratch built. Let me know what you think! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford guy Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Awesome build Hawk. I really like the way you've kept the classic Mustang look while adding the modern drivability. Great color combo, and you did a nice job redoing the interior. Very good build, looks fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
58 Impala Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Beautiful job, excellent paint. If that were a real 1:1 Mustang, I wouldn't mind having it in my driveway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk312 Posted March 8, 2014 Author Share Posted March 8, 2014 (edited) Thanks everyone for the kind words. I really appreciate it! Do I spot a little Jada wheel influence?? Right you are sir! I wanted to do Haldibrands, but didn`t want to do the Eleanor wheels. I wanted to do something a little different. It is interesting to see the responses here. One another forum, they aren`t to fond of those wheels. But I like them on this, and I guess that is what matters. :/ Edited March 8, 2014 by Hawk312 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
