Here's another of my sig models. It was built from a rare, unbuilt MPC Cobra II kit.
http://images6.fotki.com/v79/photos/2/224343/973695/DSC00159-vi.jpg?1085538108
Paint is Tamiya Gloss Black rattle can, Keith Marks gold Cobra II decals and Tamiya Clear rattle can. The headlights are MV Lenses. Wheels are gold Pegasus Torque Thrusts with Revell Acura tires on the front.

The engine is a 351 Ford from another Mustang II kit with EFI and valve covers from the Revell Speedwagon street rod. Cold air intake came on this unit but I modified it.

The interior is trimmed in gold CF and has photoreduced Auto Meter gauges that I printed out from my computer. The seats are Recaros from an AMT 1988 Mustang GT.

Finally, here is a pic of the 1:1 car that I drove in high school back in 1978.

You have violated a cardinal rule of muscle cars by acknowledging that the Mustang II is anything more than a street rod front suspension donor. :nono: :lol:
But, in all honesty, beautiful build-up. I'd have done some multi-toning in the engine bay, and probably would've used Alternomad Torq-Thrusts with gold paint instead of the Pegasus versions, but it is a great looking car. Especially considering how hard it is to get gloss black to look smooth and shiny.

Dude, your cars that you build are amazing. I love every single car that you've built. You take a sweet muscle car, and then you add little touches, make it a pro-touring, and it looks amazing.

Another great model, this time a Mustang. One question, where do you get "MV lenses," or what exactly were they made for? Trains?
