I bought this model in a lot of junk kits.

My God, that is one ugly soft looking muscle car, what were ford thinking!!!

Cant wait to see what you do with this one!!

Here is a fast update. I did a pre-assembly to check if everything is on the right place.

Great job dude! I never heard of that mustang. Its something a little different and something that looks more like a ferrari.

Love it! I didn't even knew this kit existed.
You're doing a great job on it! :thumbsup:

Hello guys! Thanks for your messages.

Here is more photos of this project.

Love it! I didn't even knew this kit existed.
You're doing a great job on it! :thumbsup:

hear hear:lol2:
im not american car guy but this is a very nice concept car i would say...

That is one good looking mustang!
I would work on the headlights a little bit...the lines on it seem very out of scale and makes the headlights not as clear as it should be. It would look better if you sand away those lines.

Hello guys!

Thanks for watching my project.

In the pre-assembly I didn´t take on place the part on the back of the headlight. I'll take another picture to show you.

Denilson

The side mirror fall off while sanding. I had to give up on this.

THE END.

It looks an easy to recover job, why do you want to give up?!

No more patience with this one. :headshake

No more patience with this one. :headshake

Leave it aside, build another one and than get back to it.
IMO it's a very nice model of a beautiful car, it would be a shame not to finish it one day! :)

Most of the models I'm building now are older ones that were poorly built, and it's great to see them get a new life! :D

Sucks to see distaster strike!! Next time try using the pin technique to put the mirrors on. Never tried it, but from others its awesome. Gives the mirrors more strength and its easier to glue without a mess.

Hopefully this build will get finished in the near future.

Love my horses but i don't care much for the new design

Thanks guys, but this one will return to the box.

I will start a new project soon.

Denilson

I'm back to this project after a long time.
