Where would I get this hood scoop,detailed 429 motor for this? And what would be the best color to do the body. Any help would be great.

make one from plastic sheet.,,,,,,or, the only kinda-sorta one I remember is in the mpc early 80s re issue 71 mach 1 kits. it also probably is in other later mpc re issues of the mach as well. ....easier and cheaper to make one......the ace..

the polar lights Richard Petty torino talladega reissue has a boss nine in it in 1/25 scale the revell boss nine mustang is an option as well

I may have the spoiler for the back, maybe a boss mustang, aftermarket valve covers, SBC scale modeling, will help ya. Heck, u can buy the whole motor race ready there.

[John Pol]

Thanks for response guys I was wondering does this scoop look like the one I need

[tubbs]

yes, its a boss scoop with a little added to the bottom to raise it up. nice subject. do you have that year cougar?

[John Pol]

well I have most the cougar using the super cat cougar from MPC with missing link 70 hood and center piece for the grill. And thanks for your response Al.

[booboo60]

Yea, I think so, look sharp bro.

Cool subject. I have the same car on my todo list.

BUT, I havn't been able to find any underhood or interior pictures .

Wasn't this car one of the 2 factory built Boss 9 cars built ?

And If memory serves me right is still unaccounted for ,, I have several pics of a restored car but I think its a clone.

Are the wheels avail in 1/25th scale ?

I have a MPC 1970 Cougar builder as a basis for mine. If I could find some more info on the car mine might come closer to the ft of the list

The rims you find on ebay the odd time. I do have detail shoots of the car if need them just send me your email address. All I know is he used a 69 body with a 70 front end clip.

Dyno Don had the other cougar whitch had also the 429 init

[freakshow12]

I know where one cougar is. It was found in 3 pieces in 3 locations. Currently under restoration. This wAs from the owners mouth last sept. The cars were 69s and this yellow one got the 70 front end so the 69 cougar interior would be correct.

heres the cars facebook page, some decent shots,https://www.facebook.com/groups/280417496317/photos/

the 70 revell boss mustang I listed earlier has an optional dual quad tunnel ram in the kit that looks like a decent start to match the cars photos, the polar lights kit is only a single four single plane

John Kasse Racing Engines builds BOSS 9 engines today. According to his site, they were available in 69 and 70 Mustangs and "Two special Cougars"

Scale Modeling By Chris has the wheels. I would use the scoop from the MPC 71 Mustang. I believe that kit also had a Boss 429 engine in it. The best engine would be from the Jo Han Comet pro stock.

[John Pol]

all I need to do is get the scoop a motor from one of the johan kits and find what would be the closest color to the car thx for the response Karl and everybody else.

tamiya ts-34 camel yellow should be close to that yellow
