this car didn't come with a windsheild, so i custom fit my own. i am using tinted glass all around. the windsheild i think came out of a revell pro stock kit? anyways, i made it fit. photo shows one on the desk which is what i started with. i made it smaller and changed the shape to fit.

a 427 cid!
i decided to go with a 427 ford with dual quads for this thing. simple enough i can keep the hood down and not have to cut a hole in it cuz it's already painted haha!

Looking good, Bob. I have a soft spot for fox-body mustangs, my first car was a 80 coupe with a 200 ci inline 6, auto.

got the wood grain painted on and clear acetate behind the gage faces. still have the knobs to paint chrome and some minor white details on the radio and thermostat controls. also added the tilt steering column and it's in position to stay.  Hosted on Fotki |
