This A4 Garage channel on youtube is fascinating.
Here, he shows how he takes a Mustang plastic kit motor and converts it (as shown below) into something like our Mint diecast models. I wish I had the patience.
It's a half hour long, but you can skip through it if your time is limited. This is part 4 of a 6 part series where he builds the Mustang.

That was fun to watch. It confirmed, again, how untalented I am.

lol .... we are in a similar club then, Bob.
Suggest you go to his channel, A4 Garage. There is much more to this Mustang build. He fabricates opening doors, trunk, hood hinges, and much more.
