Here are some pics of my soon to be Boss. I am converting an old AMT 1/43 Mustang to a Boss 302 Trans Am racer piloted by Peter Revson mods include dropping the ride height adding a chin spoiler which actually is a rear deck spoiler that came from a Modifiers 2000 or so Mustang, wheels are from Tron, tires are from scrap box decals that are going to be used are from Patto's Place and are fantastic!

Also have to fill in shoulder scoops as Boss cars did not have them.

Well I got the roll cage done, also the body is ready for primer I had to add a strip of styrene to replace the upper winshield molding.

Will post pics tomorrow it was getting late and I have a long day today.

I'm liking this, a lot! That car sits just right!

I thought about doing this to my little AMT 1/43rds. I was looking for the Tron wheels and can't seem to find them offered individually. Do you have a sorce? The Plato's Place has hundreds of decals, many of which I would like for future projects. And, in whatever scale you need! Great source!

Thanks for the compliment. I found the wheels on Ebay. There is a place in Austrailia that handles the wheels

Also a place in Holland has them. The guys on a 1/43 forum I belong to said he is a good guy to deal with.
