JDMallday Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Hey everyone, just thought I would share this with you all, It would be really cool to have someone do this in a Scale Model like 1:25 or 1:24. Tell me what you guys think about the Car, I personally like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Handley Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Is it me,or does that kit look like an modified early G-Body Dodge Daytona Turbo nose stuck on a Mercury Capri-Stang? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's only so much you can do with 1980's styling, a pencil and a ruler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afx Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Ta Da! You're amazing Jesse! I had this kit in the stash for awhile and sold it. It would take a fair bit of work to make it look like the 1:1 starting with some appropriate wheels and tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just talking about how the box art looks compared to the real car! Looks like the only thing close to right is the hood for the specific parts, and is it me, or does the roof look too tall?

Atmobil Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I'm not sure the roof is too tall, you may be fooled by the wheelarch extensions on the real car. I think the model will need a lot of work to look alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMallday Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Thanks for the replies everyone, and I never knew they made a kit already, might try to find one in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I have 3. A ton of work to get the fenders right. I have had the pleasure to see a real one. Was about ten years ago. A thing of beauty if you think of the era it was developed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDMallday Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 Nice freakshow12 I wish I could see one in person, do you have pics of the one's you did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freakshow12 Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 I have never built one yet. I have been gathering them up as they are kind of hard to find. They come with a collector card etc. I will build my opened one someday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Hall Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) I built this as a kid back then, along w/ the Monroe Mustang...typical simplified Revell of the era w/ squishy tires. Edited April 10, 2015 by Rob Hall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webestang Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) I have that kit in my Mustang collection, sealed but I'll build it. Very cool car at the time and I still like it. Saw that kit for sale $20 at the last toy show I went too. Edited April 11, 2015 by webestang Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
