Well this is the first time in a loooooonnnngggg time that I finished a model in a week. I started last Friday and finished it up this morning.

This is a Revell 98 Mustang Saleen Roadster in House of Kolor bright yellow. It is box stock except the rims which are from a Revell ITR kit. I added spark plug wires, braded hoses and batery cable lines. I cut out the panels on the side and added mesh. The rear tail lights have foil backing to make it stand out.

As Revell kits go, this went together very well with only minor fit problems between the base and the interior tub. I am really surprized at how fast I built this-easy kit to make and with more time the engine bay could be more detailed.

Looks really good but is the supercharger intake going into the alternator.

Yeah Im not sure whats going on with that. There is a spool on the back mounted to the alternator but no other hoses or anything to indicate where it goes. Even the real pictures on the engine dont really give a peek as to where it goes, but it is conected to the spool at the same area. go figure??

Ok now Im mad---
I made a privite message to you Dirty One about cross posting your own photo's into other peoples posts. Well I guess you did not lisiten to me. Im calling you out here in public. STOP posting your own pictures in other poeples threads its RUDE!! AND I DONT FUCKING LIKE IT WHEN YOU DO THAT TO MY POSTS:angryfire
I made a model to show off in my own thread-you can do the same without stepping on others toes and doing a childish act by going "see mine" in the same thread.
