Hi guys, need a bit of help. I plan on doing a 94 Mustang GT drag car, but wasn't sure what color the chassis is on the real 1:1 car? Is the whole thing body color? Over-spray present? Is it black? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Don't know if this is much help, but here are a few pics of a newer (2005 and up) Mustang chassis. Now mind you, the '94 was still mostly Fox chassis based, but I'm sure this is pretty close to how Ford was doing 'em then.

Hope this helps!

My '99 GT is primer gray with very little overspray along the edges. It has a satin sheen to it,not flat.

Shucky, here's a '95 Cobra R I shot in Birmingham at the Mustang 45th Anniversary thing.

And here's an exhaust install article from Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords with pics of the belly of a '96 GT.

Guys thanks very much! I'm not sure I'm feelin' the factory primer grey undercarriage for a model car. Guess I'll need to experiment a bit and see what I like best. Appreciate the detailed photos, they'll be a great help on this project. Thanks! :D

Mike,

As Erics pic shows, they should be primer Gray with overspray of body color. Now, I have seen some that the overspray is very minimal and others that have it almost all the way to the trans tunnel. My FOX is that way; factory spray and I have color up into the trans tunnel with primer showing through in only the 'overshadowed' areas.
