S. Svendsen Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I built this '72 Blue Max Mustang funny car using the MPC kit. It's mostly out of the box except for the addition of some Slixx decals and a couple of other little add-ons. You can see more pics and read all the details on my website at the link. http://www.svensworldofwheels.com/72bluemax_mustang.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbdolfans Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Great job on the Max.Love all the Blue Max card. Very nice and clean job on the chassis and SUPER job on the paint and decals on the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk312 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Wow. I was never really interested in that car til I saw yours. Nice finish. It looks like it really builds up well. And it looks as though the MPC funny cars aren`t plagued with the undersize slicks like the Revell kits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bob terry Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Beautiful build and photography as always. I do have to ask though, is the steering linkage a flaw in the kit? The rod that runs from the front axle to the pitman arm, should that not be longer and perhaps run under the header? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun_E_Car Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Beautifully done! I plan on building the 1/16th version of this car, without the flames though. That is just plain sweet looking. Great job! --Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And great question Bob, as I just bought the MPC 'Hot Rod' Mustang kit yesterday! It looks very similar. Hope Sean clues us in on the steering rod.
