I start a new project. The idea is make a replica of this car, a Mustang SN95 Convertible
https://fotos.subefotos.com/2d2f93b5f47b072ad6a064eede95143bo.jpg
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:

I put in his place the new rear bumper:
https://i.postimg.cc/dt1xDzxg/8.jpg
And I traspass the hinges from the old hood to the new:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/b57003441f8eee8444b07c8bbcf52a20o.jpg
Make some work for the proper hood adjustement:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/97cdae175957bb75002cb3d2d92868d0o.jpg
Erase the cobra logos:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/1ef925b40eae239253f96aa32853fa5fo.jpg
https://fotos.subefotos.com/651aa2481815a1d0f0dc3e50111b1aa7o.jpg
And the SVT logo:

https://fotos.subefotos.com/ec9425c67d63f8cf4b2681fdaf418ea4o.jpg
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:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/c9e440925c80de93428caa8a6f93c579o.jpg
Let's go to the tailights. The '94 Mustang have a mask in the lights to the same body color.
https://fotos.subefotos.com/b2e5a139544b57759e0cc643a0677389o.jpg
So I mask the lights:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/54b9ec6c2363de946e2e335e36fe7105o.jpg
And apply primer and paint:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/a142f460fe1d51a432af389fef3035fbo.jpg
https://fotos.subefotos.com/a445d59ff3e4a21ba3d43c546018df1do.jpg
I Put the ligths in the body, like the mirrors and the rear spoiler, for apply a second paint hand.
https://fotos.subefotos.com/fedf0a8afe13730f7fc318bea616e2b7o.jpg
And finally, this is the result with the gloss:

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
https://fotos.subefotos.com/a51427f9898030d29e03be6b27ab0e2ao.jpg
I paint he engine bay in the same color:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/a91fea4bdaf5e6df71668bfecebd5663o.jpg
Part of the chassis
https://fotos.subefotos.com/745df238dac86fffe40a309b60a32365o.jpg
The cockpit in desert tan (is more dark than the photo)
https://fotos.subefotos.com/85aaae7cac8ccd4b24aa9232380c6431o.jpg
Flock the cockpit floor
https://fotos.subefotos.com/8b4d212df2a938e40c6991bad8c94c1fo.jpg
And the door panels:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/8328b567613f39d3b177936ec9d4178ao.jpg
The colour is georgeous under the sun:
https://fotos.subefotos.com/dcca4f65dff1aca418c876e8311b6897o.jpg
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
