First completion for 2007 ,I started this a couple of day before Christmas and is the quickest build I've done in years :shock: ....heres the details!

Paint is Goldrush Metallic with silver base over Tamiya Primer (no crazing)
Decals are from the amt 67 Mustang for the side and a mix of kit decals for the rally stripes and modified revell focus flames on the roof. The dash has been converted to RIGHT HAND DRIVE and detail painted I also added a machined shifter i made myself. Wheels are Aoshima 19" with fujimi tyres and lowered to suit. Exhaust tips are from the parts box and the fuel cap i machined myself and added the kit decal to it. Victorian Number plates i printed add the finishing touch. Revell have produced a great kit that seemed to go together with out much fuss and i would certainly build another version in the future........Thanks Paul

The ride height and wheels are spot on too!

Ya gotta demonstrate how you made the dash RHD sometime too! 8)

Bill the RHD Conversion was pretty straight forward as the 06 dash is fairly symetrical the whole process only took an hour or two and was just a matter of cutting out the LHD parts swapping them and remoulding the dash with 2 part Tamiya putty and rescibing and few bits and pieces. Thanks Paul :)

Very nice Stang. Love the color. The RHD really sets it off.
