Cayuse

Because I stole the headers for my ’73 Camaro from the ’69 Camaro kit, and I had a ’70 Mustang kit at my feet…




Getting the Camaro fender accent lines to work with the Mustang rear took a little figuring. I added some styrene strips to extend the lines and faired it all together.

Re: Mustaro

The cowl hood is just too common (in model form) for this one. So I started making some adjustments…

Re: Mustaro

I added inboard lights and made a ’68 GT500-esque grille for another ’69 Camaro several years ago. That project stalled so I borrowed it for this car.

I reworked the windshield trim and A-pillars. I also rescribed all the trim and panel lines.

Re: Mustaro

I’ve done some additional modifications to the body trying to lessen the prominence of the Camaro styling details. The ridge in the hood and header panel was turned into a soft peak. The side louvers are being made into small scoops. The front valence has been filled and smoothed and a center bar was added to the grille.




I changed the name, Mustaro never sat well with me and Cayuse is a good name for a pony car.
Mustang planes came before the car and the Hughes Cayuse helicopter went into production in 1965...

Re: Mustaro

Like the color, Tamiya or a custom mix?

Re: Mustaro

It's Tamiya Intermediate Blue from the aircraft AS line with a gloss coat. The paint dries satin, almost matte.

Re: Mustaro

I’ve added the badging, new side marker lights and the side graphics. I’m going for a vinyl stripe look for the sides. That’s why there is blue around the door handles and locks

Re: Mustaro

The last of the paint is on it. Next to do is the BMF window trim.

I decided to put the name on the back in a similar style as a Mustang.

Re: Mustaro

Looking fantastic .

I wonder if anyone would have the nerve to do this in full scale?
