i wants to built this boss stock, but after looking the tires and the rimes i have work with other tires and rims. the tires from the kit are on the rear axle to small but on the front side to wide for me. so i made resin tires form a other kit and made aluminum rims for the rear axle.

this is the stance now:

next step is to do also aluminum rims for the front axle on my late.

Welcome to AF! I am a huge fan of Mustangs-especially the old Boss models-so I'll be watching!

welcome.
nice stance, and step lip in the rear. will be waiting on some more.

hi guys !!!

thanks for your nice comments and your looking !!!

now i can show you a little bit more from the boss.

i do the front rims also about aluminum on my late. now the deep is ok for me.
so they get 10 J on the rear and 8 J on the front. the resin wheels are also painted.

Hello Modellers !

I had a problem for posting new reply´s to my thread. í do it now 3 times and always i get the message that the post must be checked by a admin. this is 3 times ago and now post is here.

The stance looks very aggressive. I like it!

I am not sure about the problem you are having though...

hi guys !!!

the next step on the boss, was the painting. after working with mr mark softer on the decals by the coling the decals are torn :angry: :angry: :angry:

the other decals on the cap i do without the mark softer and works good.

so next time i must look for new decals to make the coling new.

http://foto.arcor-online.net/palb/alben/25/799325/3736383338653731.jpg

and the motor can get to the chassis but there is any work to do for finishing it.

I hate to tell you, that motor won't fit under the hood without the use of the hood scoop that came in the kit. To fit that motor in there, you will have to cut a hole in the hood. I found this out at what appears to be the same time as you...but my chassis and interior didn't look NEARLY as good as yours. haha

hi rsxse240 !

you have right with the air cleaner the motor is to big for this hood, but without this it´s fit very well;-)))

greets

I ended up modifying the carbs slightly or removed them, I can't remember. Then I used a cobra style long oval air filter and it fit nicely.

Excellent work, it looks fantastic so far. I think it actually looks better without the rear window slats, I always thought they looked a bit rubbish like a cheap imitation of a Lamborghini Muira rear window. I remember Ford Capri's having them as options here in the UK in the 1970's too! I think it looks nice as it is without the rear spoiler too.

hi modellers !!!

last days i find a little time to work on the boss. so i can finished the cap and get it together.

little parts are to do now on the cab, for example the radio antenna. i can see on the fotos, that i have to do more work on the rear.

here i can show you indoor fotoshoots, the outdoor fotos must wait when the snow is going.

the next step to do is motor in the next weeks.

Some parts are made without original template, but for me looks better so.

I hope you like it?

greets juergen

what did you use for the tires? they look very realistic.

I have just started building the 429 BOSS.

yours looks amazing!

Amazing model, congratulations!

A fill questions:

How did you paint it? Spray can or airbrush?

Whats is the reference for the yellow you used for the painting job?

Thanks.

Regards

hi !

sorry for the long time for my answer to your questions.

the tires i made with resin and brushed them with tamiya rubber black.

the paintjob is done by airbrush and my only references are from the internet and the us car meetings here in austria.
