Ceaser_Salad Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Greetings fellow weirdos! I have come from the depths of the internet with one goal in mind, after seeing an ad for this beauty of a vehicle. The Equus Bass in my opinion is the perfect modern muscle car. With interior up to spec with all modern vehicles, it retains the quintessential look of a real pure 60's muscle car. Resembling, in my mind, a combination of a Plymouth GTX and a '67 Fastback. My goal and plan is to kit bash a GTX, and a fastback with the interior of a Camaro. I need to make this, I need I need I need I want. My first steps are... well actually buying the kits which I cannot do at this moment. However! I call upon you all to ask if any of you guys have donor bodies of fastbacks or front grills of gtx's out there. First off, I will need to re sculpt the GTX front grill and chin to fit the more angular shape. I have no clue how, but I will figure it out. Also the GTX has 4 headlight, this only has 2 plus the fog lights underneath. Maybe the GTX isn't the best choice, but at this moment it is as close as I can get in my mind. The fastback body needs only minor adjustment, I would need to fill where the side vents are but otherwise I am going to leave it well enough alone. I would need the 770 Decals too. The interior will be just the Camaro interior from the 2017 Fiftieth anniversary Camaro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NOBLNG Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Really nice looking car. I wouldn’t spend that kind of money on it…even if I had it to spare.? You might be better off just scratch building the front end? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPudqM9chVk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSNJim Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 To me, that looks more like a modern Camaro front end than a GTX. The hood bulge looks like it came from the Camaro, too. Maybe a Challenger front bumper, and make the grille opening a bit taller to fit full height headlight lenses? You could probably rework the Camaro bumper, too, to get the hump in the middle and a little more height. Just my thoughts. Either way, it looks like it is going to be quite a bit of work. I'm looking forward to seeing the build. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TransAmMike Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Interesting looking Mustang and gonna agree with Greg as far as buying the 1:1. There are guys' on here with the skills to do that front end (me not one of them) and it will take a lot of work. Good luck Declan!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
