Description
This kit is just like I bought it in 2007. No work has been done. so you can finish it to your liking. I believe the pictures are fairly descriptive of this kit. with these additional comments: the paint is not the best and was cheap enamel. By the time you complete the additional fiberglass work and mounting I am sure you will want to repaint the whole thing. I did not like the builders attempt at the fake rivets on the hood scoop. and was planning on grinding these off. The body is very strong. but unlike a hand laid up and properly reinforced body. I believe this was sprayed on to a form. with a chopper gun. and the strength comes from very thick fiberglass. The interior / floor pan is a separate unit that is also very strong and needs to be bonded to the body. The Ford 302 V8 engine is also incomplete as it is missing the timing chain cover and 2 bbl carb. This was not an issue with me as I was planning to replace the intake and heads with new aluminum units. The rear axle is installed. but I do not know what ratio this unit is. Mustang 4 bolt 16 inch wheels are included with some very used rubber. but this is enough to keep it rolling around while you are working on it. Please note. when I first got this home and mounted the body over the frame. I called the builder with a complaint. I believe the front McPherson struts are too high. As this was kit #1 for this manufacturer. he did say subsequent units were built with the struts 3 inches shorter. A simple cut and weld will fix this but I do not know if the struts were changed. This should make the body fit the frame and the tires fill the wheel wells. This would make a nice summer project for someone with a welder and some fiberglass skills. I have nothing more than is shown in these photos or described here. I cannot ship this so plan on bringing a trailer or a box truck at least 15 ft long. This kit was new in 2007 and was the first built by this manufacturer. With the problems I had and the buyer of kit #2 had it does not surprise me that this manufacturer is no longer in business. An early forced retirement in 2008 and medical issues prevented me from completing this project. I expect $500 via Pay-pal within 3 days of closing. The remainder can be check. cash or money order . as long as I have your check 5 days before up pick up the kit. Thank you for looking and good luck bidding.
