2017 Ford GT---#1

[griffin-gt40]

I got a couple of these kits this past week. For a snap kit the level of detail is quite decent. I should of take some box opening pics, but I didn't. Next time. I like this kit so much I'm already planning on doing some more later this year.

The chassis is just a flat piece of plastic for the most part with some mold detail for the front and rear diffusors and front grill. The body is at least two pieces that are connected together at the factory, so in essence its a one piece body. There are a few mold line, apologies, I should of taken pictures of them before primer but forgot. Most notably you can see them down the front corners in front of the wheel arches and on the rear corners behind the rear wheel openings. There is also a mold line running down behind the doors, not the easiest to sand out, but doable. The wheels and tires are both simple but still look good and actually look pretty close to scale. No side wall markings, but I think its pretty safe to say those are a thing of the past it seems on new kits.

That's it for now, I'll post some pics of the interior tomorrow, but for now some body shots....

Shot of the GT's and Foose 'Vette I also got this week.

Decals going on tonight, then some clear in the morning. ** There are no decals in the kit, I'll be stealing them from the parts box.

Thanks for looking.
