'69 Ford Boss 302 Mustang

The kit is a simple 1:32 Scale being built kerbside

I am using 1:24 scale Aoshima wheels which measure 20" in 1:32 scale. I think they give quite a good pro touring stance and are deep dish style.

The colour is metallic black and I have still to do the clear coat. I plan on adding some details including mesh for the grille and may make some seat belts.

A bit of progress, BMF complete on windows and front grille surround which was really difficult because there were no edges to work with. Also the BMF on the windows actually had to be done on the glass part, one slip of the scalpel would have been a disaster! Also cleared then sanded/polished the body. For some reason the bodywork looks green in the artificial light (it's actually metallic black) and every tiny bit of dust shows up. Hopefully can get some outdoor pic's next time.

Thanks, it's actually a Hornby kit of a Scalextric slot car. It's pretty simple but well moulded and I think with the addition of some nice details such as photo etched mesh for the grille, photo etch wipers and maybe bonnet pins if I can source some in the correct scale it should look quite convincing. Another problem is that as it's produced as the race version it only has covers for the headlights so I plan on using some circular jewellery stones for them, they may look a bit rubbish but we'll see!

As it's a British kit you may not have seen it before, they often appear on e-bay in Europe though and are good value.
