1990 Mustang L X

Hi Gang, I'm house and puppy sitting until Sept. 2 for some friends who went on vacation to Ohio for awhile. Stopped at the L H S and brought this home to play with



Nice kit, parts pictures



comes with two hoods, stock and cowl scoop ( don't much care for the cowl scoop hood so will use the stock one )











Not much flash or mold lines, nice stock tires and rims with disc's up front and
they give you the parts to build the drag version or a street version and I'm going for the street with a little twist, more soon.   

I saw that kit at Hobby Lobby and wondered about it. Looks like a good one.

You just threw that Vette in for a teaser.

YYYYEEEEPPPP    I'm mainly a Blue Oval guy

Been playing with this and started with the chassis first to get the stance I wanted, got the rear end together with the chassis painted, needs some touch up but that is later



they give you a stock front end and a light weight tub one, I'm using the light weight one





here is the stance the way it comes from the box





I wanted the front end down just a little so I cut the spindles off even with the control arms and glued them on top of the arms to lower it





and here is the stance I got





front stance shot



The front might come up a little when it's all together but that's alright. Those are the stock wheels and rim's that I will be using and are dull coated, just need to scuff the tread a little.

So far going together with out any real bad issues   

Good start. I don't know if I would change the stance to much. Sits about right to me.

Yep. Looks good.
Engine parts on the sprue look interesting.

Waiting for some things to dry on the AFX GB I put the int. tub in and put the body on, here is where the stance will be when all together, I like it





Now I can get it ready for paint and do the rest of it

I never liked the Mustang after the seventies but the stance really improves this one John.

Nice stance on that Mustang
