the color is a hard one to get in model paint, the best bet on it is automotive paint, the color is grabber orange, its not fun to try to make

its the whole thing the car needs a lot of body mods no matter xmod or model body i chose the model body because if i mess up i can put that body on the chassis it came with and go buy another kit

Mine is based off that with a mix of boss 302/429.

Dude, i saw that car today. or at least a mustang that had the same body paint (except the "15"). had the scoop too. Do they sell them like that? I only got a glimpse of it because it was parked at an elementary school, caught me off guard. Looked awesome though.

yes they do sell it, its the saleen parnelli jones limited edition s289 but I can garente you that it was not the pj edition, my friends dad has a grabber orange mustang that looks just like it but with out the side and hood stripe

[blue504life]

small update, I got the chassis long enough to fit the body now its just mounts, louvers (or however you spell it), paint, and I think the car might be done

no pics sorry

if your talking about the newer mustang yes they do, but i heard that that they were only makin like 500 or something, i'm probably wrong cuz i dont trust who told me, sumone please set this straight how many did they make, mor than 10 000?

all I can tell you is that it is a low number I'm not sure the exact number but it is a very limited edition car, the PJ edition that was at my world of wheels was number I think 237 out of the 500 or so built

I like it, do a different color than the bad poop yellow.

Looks cool, why aren't you mounting it on an Xmods chassis?

if I change the color it would not be a parnelli jones mustang that color is really cool in real live, and I am using a xmod chassis I just haven't mounted it yet,if you read one of my other posts I said that I have the length correct but haven't mounted it yet

[blue504life]

I don't know if you would count this as a double post but I am one big step closer to this projects completion,my step brother is hooking me up with some grabber orange paint from the shop he works at so that's the paint issue solved, and it is yet to be mounted

[SYNDYCATE]

Spoon for a hood scoop-NICE!!! thats what im doin

[blue504life]

small update

first shot at body mount





as you can see it still needs work

EDIT body ride height set what do u think


added more styrene

rear mount cant mount front yet

[xmodkidd33]

Rear is way too low. Raise it up with some styrene between the clip and the deck lid.
