1:18 Scale Mustang Streetfighter!



What do you get when you take a 1993 Mustang Cobra R and combine it with modern Trans Am race car styling and performance? One heck of a g-Machine that’s what! This model was built by Chris Lee for a Diecast model car contest on www.diecastpub.com sponsored by GMP Diecast. Everybody was offered a 1993 Steeda Mustang Cobra model at a substantial discount from GMP to build for the contest. Chris entered the Pro-Touring/Road Racing class and was voted the winner in that class.
By the looks of the amount of fabrication, detail, and just how wild the concept is it’s no surprise that this car catches a lot of attention from anybody who’s seen it. Widebody flares, super wide racing wheels and slicks, splitters, diffusers, twin turbos, turbo system plumbing with heat wrap (wow!), custom interior, custom roll cage – AWESOME.


Even before building this killer corner carver, Chris had a plan and executed it skillfully. He even sketched up a concept rendering just like a real custom shop – from concept to build. Enjoy the pictures below. Click below to see additional pics on the Diecast Pub
