I saw this kit on Clearance for $7.00 and could not pass it up. I appologize to the mustang fans out there, but at least I gave it a cool paint job :D Mustang II's are actually very good in compact derbies. I folded the hood over to the bumper and added peices of metal to cover the panel gaps, to make it stronger like they do with the real ones. The start after I gave the body a treatment with a lighter ![]() ![]() Now in Black. I combined the kit's V-6 tranny with half of the V-8 block to create my attempt at a Ford 2.3 4 cyl. The pipes are big and ugly, so they will probably go. ![]()
