maltsr Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Tamiya kit, Tamiya rattle can Gloss Black, kit decals printed by Cartograph. This is an old, formerly motorised kit that was re-issued about six years ago. The one-piece body is beautifully molded and the kit goes together well but is rather simplified. However, it looks stunning with the multicoloured paint scheme. I added some masking tape seatbelts for a bit of detail. The real cars produced a whopping 375hp from only 91 cubes, that's over 4hp per cubic inch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxicoop Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 that is awesome great color combo !!!!! does the hood open to show the engine ?? would like to see the engine if possible !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty85 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Nicely done mate, great looking build! I wonder if any one has tried bashing one of these with the Monogram Mustang for some engine detail? As I think they look near enough the same in the engine bay you could get there with not too much work. NOT meant as a critisim just thinking out loud.

The Mustang was a Zakspeed Capri with a Mustang body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
