The second Project is the Tokyo Drift Mustang 1967...soon 2 Come.

off course there will be new rims on this ;-)

Next little step...the Hood and the front bumper...the Custom one have been installed.

The front bumper looks a little bit off the hook..but thats fixed allready after reviewing the pics.

should this be the Hardtop version or should it stay open?

Its a Pit High. but other than that its a good start.

BoomTunezzz 08-19-2006 04:19 PM

yes right..I have to lower it :-) but thats just the testfit...pls be patient hehe..

any ideas for the paintjob?

kigamkcalb17 08-19-2006 05:06 PM

red an white, an nothing against your personally or your project but boyd coddington sucks but put some rims on it lower it an paint it red an white an itll be sweeeeet even though i hate vettes personally

ZackyV 08-19-2006 05:19 PM

leave the top on it.
and if your painting it white dont add the redd it wont look very good unless its on the running board. And make sure you mount the motor to it and make it a flip hood for the sweetness factor ;)

BoomTunezzz 08-19-2006 05:33 PM

red and white? mhhhh .. i think a flipflop colour ( chameleon ) would be best and maybe racing stripes..but what colour...
heres a choice on an ebay shop i found. what do you think?

http://stores.ebay.de/Flip-Flop-Lack...QQftidZ2QQtZkm

and by the way..the hood is already cemented ...and there wouldt be much place for the motor anyway.

thrillbilly 08-19-2006 05:47 PM

my personal opinion leave it high up withthose tires i think it looks kinda cool, a four by four corvette awsome!

kigamkcalb17 08-19-2006 06:38 PM

yea red an white considering it was a big color would look good i think factory would look better


http://www.acarshow.com/v1vrdwhi.jpg

like that an color shift paint would look ugly imo dont try an gangster out a classic

xmodkidd33 08-20-2006 01:09 PM

itll be like a swamper vette

BoomTunezzz 08-20-2006 02:00 PM

I thought about that too :-) but what about a swamper 1967 Mustang Tokyo drift ;-)

http://www.xmodsource.com/gallery/fi...2-IM000192.JPG

thats the beginning of a second Project ...hehe

Thought abouut that red and white paintjob...would look original..yes..but it has to be a shiny red...
Or keep the white parts of that look and replace the red with ...mhhhhh classic racing green? Or Pearlwhite sides and an nice Cobalt blue...or deep royal blue...everything coated with multiple layers of clearcoat...so it has this glass shine.

sweetvette 08-21-2006 03:11 AM

my friend has the same exact vette model

BoomTunezzz 08-21-2006 03:59 PM

Step by Step 1962 Corvette Swamper
 
ok...thought about the swamper thing...and it will be done!!!

Looovvee the idea...moded the body to "Click on" to the Truckin Chassis.By the way ..got another grill wich wil be worked out cleaner ;-)

The holders on the Back bumpers will be painted black and sanded down in shape....have to sand down a little bit of place for the front wheels. But ..."Time will tell" ..like a wise man once said. :-)

so here are some "In work" Pics:
The Frontgrill and Bumper:

Modified Grill...to fit on the chassis clip:

there it should stay on:

The custom Offroad Backclips:

decided to make it a hardtop ;-):

http://www.xmodsource.com/gallery/fi...2-IM000237.JPG

so thats it for today...:-)

I think red and white won´t fit to the concept anymore..do they?

thrillbilly 08-21-2006 10:28 PM

swamper vette, totally cool man i would paint it camo and make a push bumper, just an idea and maybe some off raod lights on the roof

BoomTunezzz 08-22-2006 04:23 AM

yeah...I´ve got some Street Bodykit Parts left over from my H2...Chrome Push Bumper...Chrome siderails...and so on...lets see if they fit on to That Swamper Vette.

The Camo is woth thinking about....lets google if I can find some camp Patterns wich I can tape out on the car ;-)

But I still can´t decide wich colour 2 do...have to check the Paintstore or the hardwarestore...but they haven´t got the choice that ebay has ;-)...but there I will have to wait about 1 week until this **** arrives.
