Description

After a long brake from drawing caused by my exams at school, finally I made one work.

size: A3
technique: pencils: H, HB, 3B, 5B

This is one of these cars which make the biggest impression on me - Ford Mustang 1969 Boss 429.

"The Boss Mustangs were built to qualify the 429 V8 for NASCAR. The Boss 429 package came with a race ready 429 cid V8 with ram air induction, an aluminum high riser and header type exhaust manifolds. Mandatory options included a four speed manual and a 3.91:1 Traction-Lok axle. Also included were an oil cooler, trunk mounted battery, race suspension, and the best interior Mustang had to offer. Although impressive on paper, the Boss 429s failed on the street where their dependence on high revs hurt their street starts and the initial batch had incorrect valve springs that would stop winding at 4500rpm instead of 6000rpm." (found somewhere on the internet ;P)

sorry for my ponglish ;P
