I always liked them when they first came out in the early eighties but are really hard to find now.

you can still get them brand new from Unlimited fiberglass ( Up22) in the states but shipping was a really expensive.

they look good when you can set them back and level them off..heaps easier with a smaller car.

There was a grey one.like the above in west Auckland in the mid 80s,blown 350,it was insane. Also was a purple hc with blown 454

somewhere I have a video of a pink viva with a v8 in it at meremere, it had matching painted pink tri spoke billet looking wheels

Hi Freightrain...I am trying to keep a lot of the old styling from what we ran back in the day.

even tho the front end looks modern it is still based off a 74-78 mustang 11..

thats part of the reason for the drum brakes and igot them in a clearance sale on summit racing so they were cheap.

hope you like it so far.

im trying to have the body on the chassis by the end of the year.

Yeah there really cool but hard to find the gold anodised ones.

Use VHT anodised spray paint.

Paint over the chrome to get the anodised gold colour.

Did this years ago when i couldn't get the engine accessories i wanted in the colours i wanted.
