That's insane.  And possibly one of the coolest mods I've seen.  I'd love to see it IRL.  There are a lot more wires involved I would imagine.

Hey I have 4 of those models! And that issue! ANd the PHR, and Hot Rod with the car too! It's a cool kit, but the dual-blower set-up SUCKS. The rest is cool. In fact it's the same chassis in the Mark VII kit I have posted on here earlier (albeit HIGHLY modified).

I would like to do a cougar xmod... but that'd cost money. So i guess I'll just keep it as a mustang right now!
