Mine was my 1970 Ford Mustang Grande, (hence, my forum name). My car was a T-5 car; 351 Windsor, Dark Blue paint with a Black interior and vinyl top.
It had no Mustang nametags or badges on it anywhere. The car was manufactured in Feb. of 1970, exported to Germany and sold there. In Germany, at that time, there was already another German automotive product that used the "Mustang" name, so Ford was not allowed to sell Mustangs or use the Mustang name in Germany. Hence, all Mustangs sold in Germany were labelled T-5's only.
A US Army Lieutenant purchased my car brand new in Germany, drove it on the Autobaun for 2 years, then upon his return to the states, decided to have the car shipped back to the USA because he loved driving it so much. I bought it from him a few years later, and I loved driving it as much or more than he did! Sure wish I still had it...

I like this project; you're off to a good start! I think the hood scoop looks good. My only suggestion; the rear wheels in your first photo appear to me to be too "modern" for a 1960's-era gasser. It looks like you went to a different rear wheel in your last photo, but it might also be a little too modern-looking.
Of course, wheel-choice is entirely up to you and whatever wheels you think look the best on your build! (I've build many a race car with wheels that weren't "correct" for it, but they just had the "look" that I wanted).

Wow, Carl, this is an awesome build! Your paintwork is outstanding! One of my favorite subjects too, mid-1960's Ford!

Yes Casey, that is the kit that I'm looking for. Anyone got one that they won't be building?
