Go for it Joe! How in depth are you going to go in detail with it? Regarding plug wires I've got a method that works a lot better than those goofy looking pre-wired distributors available online. Lemme know if you want me to show you my method.

Well after a bit of a lengthy break I am back. Work continues on the Mustang with engine work, chassis work, and work on the interior. Trying my hand at wiring the engine again. Hope it works better than the last time. Next up is to finish with the plug wires and assorted wires and cables. Til the next time. All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged. Joe

Nice work on that dash Joe. Nice detail and good use of the colors. Engine looks great as well. What are you using for plug wires?

My friend that would work great but to be honest I am just not into auto kits that much. For me they are more a distraction.

We have a rolling chassis. The engine is now installed as well. Next is to mate the body to the chassis. All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged. Joe

It all looks really good so far Joe but just a point with the plug wires in the future. I use colored wire from Lex's Scale Modeling for the wires as I can shape them any way I want without risking peeling the paint off and this stuff is available in all kinds of colors. Wire looms are available to route the wires in a slightly more organized fashion. Just tryin' to help some is all.

And she is finished. All told it turned out much better than the first time I did up this kit. Next up will be a couple of things that will test me to no end. All comments, critiques, and criticism are encouraged. Joe
