The original annual 1971 MPC Mustang....
« on: June 20, 2017, 05:00:44 AM »
after converting to a Late Model to go with the Chevelle LM






As you can tell by the tires/wheels and the bars under the hood, and the radiator I had at least one other kit of the Super Stocker series, the early issues that came with a "floater" tire for the LF, the lack of tread on this tire...for the front "bumper", from parts trees. The air cleaner is from the Mustang kit, but it set down over the carb. "Fixed" that by gluing and shaping a piece of flat plastic so it would sit on top of the carb, necessitating cutting a hole in the hood. This was one of the last kits I built straight out of the box, no painting at all. But it was built in the "race trim" out right. Another example of not having a new kit to build and bored, so time to rework an old build.
