'94 Ford Mustang GT 4.6 Convertible (Monogram)

I start a new project. The idea is make a replica of this car, a Mustang SN95 Convertible





The problem is that the normal version not exist in convertible, only the Cobra version. So I need two kits for this.





The kits looks similar, but are completely diferent. The Monogram have the bumpers fixed in the body. Luckily, the AMT no.


This is the cobra front bumper





And this is the normal bumper that I need to adapt:






Cut the original and adapt the new one:





The same process for the rear bumper. The problem here are the letters. The Cobra kit says, logically Cobra. But I need the Mustang GT letters:








Finally, the hood. The air ducts are different, so I need adapt the hood hinges from the AMT Kit:









Thanks for watching

Re: '94 Ford Mustang GT 4.6 Convertible (Monogram)

I put in his place the new rear bumper:




And I traspass the hinges from the old hood to the new:




Make some work for the proper hood adjustement:





Erase the cobra logos:








And the SVT logo:








And finally, after repair minor scratches and work in the union between the body and the new bumpers, I apply the primer and the first paint hand:




Let's go to the tailights. The '94 Mustang have a mask in the lights to the same body color.





So I mask the lights:





And apply primer and paint:








I Put the ligths in the body, like the mirrors and the rear spoiler, for apply a second paint hand.




And finally, this is the result with the gloss:










I hope you like, thanks for watching and sorry for my bad english

Re: '94 Ford Mustang GT 4.6 Convertible (Monogram)

Thanks all for the replies. Is near to end, but when I work I focus on the model and I dont remember to take pictures




I paint he engine bay in the same color:






Part of the chassis





The cockpit in desert tan (is more dark than the photo)





Flock the cockpit floor





And the door panels:





The colour is georgeous under the sun:





I dont have more pictures from this point, because is an old kit, and the assembly is crap. I was fight with the kit for close the body. This is the actual state, just lack minor details to finish





Thanks all for watching and for the coments.
