Tommy Andrews' Grand American Mustang!!
By Steve Buckner
QUOTE From STEVE:
Here's ... the Grand American series Mustang driven by Tommy
Andrews. Was a top contender throughout the 60' and early 70's. His cars
were also skinned as Comets, Falcons, Cougars and others.
His cars also ran
as #21. These cars ran nearly every track from Talladega to Baton Rouge.
I used the AMT 67 Mustang GT as the basis and kitbashed the AMT Torino
Cobra for its stocker parts and cage.Scratch built front engine bay cage and
core support was once the brush guard from a Dodge 4x4. Used Detail Master
for the wire mesh in the grill and the window net, fabricated shocks and
exhaust from aluminum tube stock, used aluminum "flashing" to create
headlight and tail light covers, made hood pins from sewing needles, used
fuel cell and dash from "parted out" 80'2 T-Bird. Tires and wheels are
Goodyear speedway specials and Holman/Moody from some 70's stocker kit(found
in the junk box).
Decals created by Jeff Lancaster and printed on the Alps
printer.
