replaced by a Bronco.

A white one?

LoL...nah, a two tone gold and brown one.

[Casey]

even the tires will be new.

Out of curiosity, what was the factory installed tire size and brand(s)/model(s) when these cars were new?

[Maindrian Pace]

This is my daily driver...



So I imagine I'll reward Revell's excellent choice by going completely insane in the membrane and buying way more than I should. Even if the top of the rear window is a touch too low. This could get spendy.

I'm not known for building police car models, but I will need at least one of those new Mustang kits for that purpose. I always loved how they did the wheels on our NYS trooper Stangs

Cobra R or Saleen hatchback versions would be appreciated.

Here is mine, I know I will break the bank with a few of these! Been waiting to build one and I almost purchased the resin version a few months ago, but now all I need to source now is the cowl hood, the SVO style steering wheel and the cobra rims that were on the SN-95 body cars that I know Revell made a few of, I cant wait! The first picture is when I first bought the car and the second is after I modded it a little. I had a over bore, tubular front clip with coil overs, Cervini 4" cowl, 3:73 gear, Steeda short shifter, and BBK long tubes. I wish I still had her, but I can have a model!

Wow..never seen that color before. Neat. One color I liked back the day that seemed pretty rare was a dark green that was available on the '85 or '86 LXes.

Got the local Napa to mix me some, was going to convert a few MPC I have, but looks like I'll just have to get this kit. John's '88 is in the Yellow Mustang Registry.

Can't wait to get some of these kits, would like to replicate the 89 notch i use to have.

[martinfan5]

I already have a order placed for a few of these, well me and half the guys at the club

Guys, the 10 holes were available on LX models from 87-93 so they are correct for the kit. I had a 93 LX hatchback that came with 10 holes. The 16" Pony wheels and high back (GT style) seats were part of an optional package.

I've had more coupes than I care to remember and paid a ton of money for inacurate resin bodies over the years. I'm glad to see Revell listened and actually did an all new kit instead of borrowing parts from the old 93 Cobra / GT Covertable kits from the 80's. I'd like to see them do a LX Hatchback body and interior, and eventually a GT / 93 Cobra kit.

Here's a pic of my 91 I did a resto on after a fire:

Little OffTopic, but needs to ask: Have you tried how it runs on Drag Strip?

Those are very popular Drag Cars, so I will pick one up for sure.

With this one coming to life any word from you resin casters as far as popping some of the 'pony' wheels? I know for myself i have only ONE set on hand and would buy at least 5 more cars worth. Missing Link has them out of production, with no plans for revival. I emailed this week about it.

Which kit or die-cast has the best set in 1/25 scale?

The only catch would be making sure the wheels fit the kit's all-new tires, which probably could not be done until the kit drops. Plus, I would think they'd need to be the currently-fashionable-at-Revell "flanged" style wheels, but again, fitting the tires might be an issue.

[Scuderia]

O poop i forgot this new one is 1/25 nevermind lol
