Ford mustang Shelby GT 500 circuit-racer Revell scale 1/12

This is my new project. It's a duobuild with my 16 years old son Vincent.
Vincent ,he's doing the fine finishing work like painting the small parts,drilling the holes for bolts and applying the electric power lines.
We already started with the engine as you can see on the pictures.
We already drilled 6 holes in the exhaust manifold.
We build a race version of the car.
WHO CAN HELP US PICTURES OF RACING MUSTANGS Shelby GT500 2010??

These are the wheels now,they are painted in matt-black.
The tires are sanded with sandpaper.



We also started making the engine,we make holes for the bolts,so you can see it in the blower and in the exhaust manifold.

Are you looking for pictures of a factory stock racer? Or something with a full tube chassis? I've had trouble finding pictures for my full tube frame build of the same kit.

Anyway, looking good so far!

Re: Ford mustang Shelby GT 500 circuit-racer Revell scale 1/12

I'm working on the body now.
First of all I have made the rear spoiler with plastic.
Also the inside of the car must been transformated to a race version.
Next week,I start to make the front spoiler and the rollcage.

See you

Good to see a race car of this model. Looks good so far. I'm waiting for a kit to arrive in the mail. I have not decided how I will build it. Most likely it will be a street machine.
