Or know where to find em? They're slightly different than the '99 Cobra's... I'll be using those wheels if I can't find the right ones...

I bet they'd be fairly easy to build, what with the flat spokes, and straight cuts and all. I can see what I could do, and if they turn out, I could cast them in resin. it'd be much easier to just find a kit with them though, hahaha.

Heh, well I'd appreciate that, but I'm not sure the customer would want to spend more than $5-10 on a set of resin wheels. If you think you can toss them together for that or less, for sure, I'd love it.
As it stands I think I'm just going to take '99 Cobra wheels and sand them flat and smooth like that, maybe use filler...

I was just checking out the mustangs in my repetoir, I think the wheels from the saleen convertable are a closer match, and it's a superb kit to boot.

Hmm... not worth buying an additional kit for the wheels. They look a bit similar, I'd have to fill in the "ribs" on the spokes.

you're right, they do look quite similar, but the C6 wheels are what, 19" and 20" ? Not the right scale... :frown:

this is one of the many conversions I've been planning. I've wanted to make the hood and front facia, as well as the rear spoiler and sell it as a trans kit for the 99. But time has not permitted these ventures...

Won't know til I get some pics... It's a GT convertible with a 6 pt rollbar, Jeg's reclinable racing seats, rear seat removed, single turbo 302 (this'll be my first try at a homemade turbo!)...
