Progress is being made on the Shelby. Paint came out fantastic. Base coat is flat black, followed by Testors Blazing Black lacquer. Interior is three shades of red. I ended up removing a fair bit of the front crossmember to lower the engine enough for the hood to clear. Even with all that I still needed a 60s Mopar “mailbox” hood scoop.

The aforementioned mail box, which required the Shelby hood louvers be filled and sanded to shape. The exhaust also needed custom work in the form of a NASCAR style x pipe with drag dumps. The rear section under the rear axle is made of solder. These pipes will exit through a custom rear valence adapted from a Dodge Sidewinder.
