2014 Ford Mustang Thunderbirds Tribute

TheMongoose

Dang this is a fun build!

And she's done!

A huge shout out to all who had suggestions on the build. Throw back a cold one on me  

So here's what I started with...

here's what I was trying for...

and here's what I got!

This is where fotofrank & goldhammer really turned it up a notch from my perspective! Not realizing how big of a picture window that rear hatch area would be without the stripes and headrest trim this would have been an ugly black hole...

Went to put on the side mirrors. Do they look big to you?

While I was waiting on paint to dry on the mufflers there was time to make a chin spoiler. Not sure where this got lost earlier on but it's on now!

The big reveal to close it all out...and the reason why this car caught my attention early on, the skid plate   This is also out of 0.005" sheet.

Thanks for checking in and adding your ideaas to a super fun build! This one now sits with my 6 Thunderbirds planes. Now maybe I'll start the Spitfire one...

That is down right spectacular! What a beautiful paint job. You are to be commended on an amazing performance my friend. Bravo!!!!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL.  Submit to FSM.  That is worthy of a mag article

Ditto on submitting the build to FSM. When I saw the first picture I wondered how you were able to get an F-16 to fit in your yard. The car looks like you could get in and drive it away. Very cool.

You guys are too kind. I guess I will see how to submit it to FSM. Probably some directions out here somewhere. Can't thank you enough FSM Forum members for the encouragement. I really fed off the ideas and when things are fun they seem to just go better!
