Come to find out there was a model that looked exactly like I wanted through GMP. It's the "Dark Horse 85 Mustang Coupe" When mine makes it into paint it will look almost exactly the same on the exterior. Same model, same year, same color, same hood and same wheels. While my car won't be a show car (the wifes car is the show winner in our house) I do take my Mustangs to shows to help our club with Club partisipation awards. I thought it would be cool to have a model to set on the air cleaner for the show. My car won't be crude by any means but won't be show quality either. The biggest advantage I'll have is not many four eye fox cars show up for car shows. I'm on the list for paint the first week of March. My body guy stays backed up.

Looking good, to be honest I hated the paint your car had before. Also, good job going back four-eyed.

that's be pretty neat.... I am half tempted to buy the GMP model of the Chrome yellow fox and paint it green... or if they ever made a 7 up model... just swap the wheels to ponys from another model...lol...
