Trans Am/IMSA Mustang Work Stalled....

[Chris K. Hale]

After about 18 months of serious hard work, 5 kits, many many scratchbuilt parts, inc brass A arms, I had to breath and put this project on hold, the fuel filter and system in the rear was a killer, the triple filter/triple pumps all hand made were the nail.. Dont Fret it is all safely boxed and ready go back onto the work bench at some point...
The paint was originally the Red Whistler car but once painted none of the body panels fit due to warpage so I dreamt up the Texaco Black and flour Orange and am very happy with the striking finish.. more in the future.. Chris

One more, the engine came out real nice, I had a fellow send me a couple dozen pics of close up sections of the Rousch Wistler Mustang from V.I.R. and maybe the subject of the problems with correcting the kit...Chris

Very impressive work Chris. I hope you finish it.

Wow........ Well done Chris. Looking forward to updates.

Looks like the decals came from Tamiya's Ford Sierra RS500.

[Chris K. Hale]

Yeah, liked the contrast!!

Awesome work I don't know if I even come close to measuring up to you guys here, you guys are pros compared to you, really awesome clean work, I can't wait to see it completed.

This one came out of nowhere! Looks good, Chris!

Very beautiful and highly accomplished work, whereas hoping you'll recover forward motion soon and undo that stall orientation sooner as opposed to later. Great effort!

The work you have done so far looks terrific. I would need a diagram to keep track of where all those wires and hoses go.

I agree! But I'm having too much fun to quit now!
