All right DT, I know you and Finks were the only ones to know about this, and after a solid beating from Finks, I am forced to show the rest of Da Pimps what I've been up to.
A couple weeks ago, Finks brought over a dead Mustang Xmod for me to fix. Since the pcb is pretty much fried, He just left it here for me to tinker with. I immediately knew that I had to make an Eleanor replica. So I drove to the nearest LHS and picked up two tubes of Squadron green putty and went to town. It's a little rough, but here's what I've done so far.





The only real problem I see myself running into will be finding some late 60's taillights to adapt to car. I want to make this as real as possible.

Hot Damn!!! Holy shit!!

Just don't go Miva on us with this project....



BTW...Looks great so far!!

Here is a place with a ton of Mustang Models. I'm sure one of them would have the lights your looking to use. The models are $10-15 a peice.

Thatta boy

Friggin slick shit bro. Course you know when you are done you have to give it back Ahh just fuckin w/ ya.

Oh and SG, no need, if he doesn't finish this up I will personally go over and break his kneecaps or some shit. Hell I'll do that if he doesn't paint her Elenors true colors like he was threatening to do

Okay,Okay, jesus! I'll paint her with the right colors. Please don't break my kneecaps. (I guess one wouldn't be too bad)

I'll keep y'all up to date. I promise. Thanx for the lead SG. I found the perfect kit . Too bad I only need er for the taillight lenses. But for 12 bucks, that ain't so bad.

The way I see it is...$12 now, for something priceless later.

Couldn't keep it hush could ya ? I don't blame ya, it's just too fly to
keep her under raps!

wow can't wait to see that car painted. Very nice job so far, keep us posted on your progress.

Okay, update i't's friday the 21'st about 1 am. It's starting to look more and more like a car.

God damn it man, that shit is coming out nice. Good luck man, now I gotta make me one. I gave up on xmods awhile back so excuse the ignorance, but does rs sell the bodies with a front mount thinger?

Right now there is only two body kits that come with a body and all the goodies. The Black RSX and the Mustang GT. (I think it is the GT, could be the Concept) They come with front clip thingy.

The other body kits are only the skirts and F&R grill and bumpers. No front thingy.

Naw I'm saying if I were to order a replacement body, do they come with the front mount thingie. I'm not buying a whole damn car just cuase I want an eleanor.

I go to RS and get returned cars for 20 bucks, so it isn't impossible. Finks got this mustang kit for probably ten bucks. the board is dead, but that can be easily remedied.


go to Radio Shack

No, I don't think the bodies do when you order them from RSU. But I'm sure you can order them in addition to ordering the body from RSU.

The body kits I was speaking of are just the bodies, no chassis.

Like this one....



You'll have to order them both, the body and the clip.
