The third-generation Mustang was produced by Ford from 1978 to 1993. Built on Ford\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s popular Fox platform, it evolved through a number of sub-models, trim levels, and drivetrain combinations during its production life. In fact the Mustangs of this generation are fondly called Foxes or Fox Bodies by enthusiasts. The design underwent a multi-faceted update for 1987, and the body style is grouped into two segments: the 1979-1986 cars, with their quad headlight arrangement, and the 1987-1993 cars, with their “no-grille” (aero) front fascia styling. Production ended with the introduction of the fourth-generation Mustang for the 1994 model year. Sure, racers could throw away extra money on the upgraded Mustang GT… But why? The LX coupes were lighter, faster and less expensive-the perfect drag racer. Under the hood on this light and compact car is a customized Windsor “5.0L” V-8. Although technically only 4.9L, nobody complained once they felt the power the Windsor could deliver. Put one of these on a drag line with the right set of tires and it will flat-out fly!<\/p>\n

For the modeler:<\/strong> This review covers the Revell kit 85-4195 \u00e2\u20ac\u212290 Mustang LX Drag kit. This is a 1\/25 scale kit that Revell rates a Skill Level 3 for advanced builders. It comes with 139 parts molded in White, Chrome, Clear and Clear Red and has Rubber tires and \"000b\"<\/a> Metal axle pins. This kit is considered a CONVERSION KIT by Revell as it is the same kit released recently as a 2n1 LX Stock and Police car. Revell leaves all the stock parts in this kit and just removes the Police Package parts and adds Drag Car parts so this car also is a 2n1 kit, BONUS. The motor is fairly simple but well detailed and looks good completed. You get both Stock and Drag interior parts in a multi-part interior that has a fair amount of detail. This is the typical Revell interior\/engine bay set-up seen on newer kits. The suspension is very detailed and assembles nicely in this kit. You do get Drag and Stock tire options. The body is a one piece unit with only the hood being separate. I will not get into the debate of specific dimension issues that the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Purists\u00e2\u20ac\u009d have brought up but overall this is THE BEST FOX on the market to date! The options to go full Stock or Drag are a nice addition. Overall dimensions are: Length: 7-1\/4″, Width: 2-15\/16″, Height: 2-1\/16″.<\/p>\n
