Hurry up and finish it quick !!!

I want to see it finished.

I think some BBS rims would be cool on it. It would give a racing look.

I think chrome yellow with Equips or Fujimi Work Meisters would look tight.

Looking great so far, good luck on the finished project as this is a lot of work to complete. Can't wait to see it finished.

here are some progress pics of the rear bumper... im trying to make it more like the RSI rear end... let me know what you think... i still have to add a couple more pieces to it and figure out how to add the exhaust. there isnt much room to fit a dual muffler into the molded chasis... wish i had a pic of the RSI underbody

thanks a million!! thats a very nice quick drawing you made

i really appreciated it. i took a picture of the bottom of the model im working with to show how i plan to incorporate the dial exhaust according to your reference. let me know what you think by the way, it says "RED = Path of stock exhaust" in the picture

mstngcobrasvt98 · 02-25-2003, 10:34 PM

Maybe, if its possilbe, cut off the spare tire compartment and whatever that one thing is and fill it with flat plastic sheet and then build the exhaust on that, might be a bit easier than working around the spare tire. Otherwise, i think you've interpreted my drawing pretty good and have a pretty good idea. Anything going to be done to the interior? Good luck on the project.
