Default Special Edition Mustang Build !!

Well, Ive Decided To Go and take on This Project.
It has Benn Done ONCE before wit the av-x10 tribute vehicle, which was auctioned off. Roush also did the p512 but wasnt much of a tribute car.

Im Going to be making a tribute vehicle to the TRUE mustang. The North American Mustang.

not many people know that our cars were names after the plane NOT the horse.

Im going To Build the Car In Both Performance, Handling and Most Importantly LOOKS.

Im going to Find a NA MUSTANG that i like, and replicate it, and hope to get a photoshoot with it, and my car.

Im Going To Post updates And Pictures Daily.


Im doing this because i love the Mustang and its heritage, andd i think it will be a great show piece for shows, and such!!

Post Your Input

Sounds awesome. I never knew that fact either. Just looked them up and I'm not seeing the resemblance between our stock cars and this plane but it does sound like a neat project. Good luck. Keep us posted.

well there was nothing similar between the plane and out cars lol... the mustang was one of the3 greatest fighter planes, and was made by North American, basically the mustang car was names after he american legend plane.

I seem to recall seeing a similar project on here. But it was mainly some paint, nothing too custom from what i recall. Should be cool

Yeah that's why Roush called one of their special editions the Roush P51, as a more specific tribute to the P51 Mustang.

Anyway, best of luck on your project. I'm really looking forward to any updates

I think we should have logos with a plane on them, not a horse

This Plane Is Still Active, And im Contacting the owner/ pilot to let them know my idea.

its a P51 Mustang Cav. "Six Shooter"

the color combo is perfect, and i love the look. will post pics as i start, as well as ideas, or sketches i have once it gets rolling.

That Plane is an ORIGINAL Survivor From The 1940's And im Super Exited

Are you going to make it from a V6 since it was a "six shooter"?
