I went back and checked out the movie car and just now realized it has hood stripes and trunk! not sure about the top... Killer machine though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWT Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) No actually I'm using the 69 body out of this 3 pack. Bought it 20+ yrs ago. That other one I take it, is based on the 1/24 Monogram 70 Boss... and I honestly don't think I've ever seen one of those. One slight difference between the movie and my take on it, is I plan on leaving the Mustang letters on the back... maybe...

If they already had a 69 mustang on the market... Why would they tool up another one? (yellow boxart) Which I beleive was an all new tool a few years ago. Don't get me wrong, I like that kit... I haven't built one yet but I do like it... It would've been easier to re-market the black one it seems... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KWT Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 The front clip on the black one is all wonky... It droops on the sides. It actually appears to be the same kit except for that and the side vent holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disconovaman Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Oh that's cool, Revell able to improve on the old kit... I'm gonna build it eventually. I just finished this one back in March. It's the old molded in yellow 24th car from 91 ish... I like the simplicity of this kit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would've been cool too. I do plan on building it some day... I did enter the 6cyl CBR and it was alot of fun. I really need to get some traction on my Camaro soon.

Pat Minarick Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Figured out the wheels and tire to use , now which engine and were to put it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheyenne93 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Well the mustang needs a lot of sanding to get the rear quarter lines and A pillars correct. A pillars were way to wide so narrowed them and scribed new molding lines. Took a few pics that are not the best, but I think the lines can be seen.

disconovaman Posted September 9, 2020 Author Share Posted September 9, 2020 Yes, the Green Hornet movie car is stellar! From where it was to how good it looks in such a short period of time is impressive... Also it's one of the last ones announced so good job on that one... I guess we should see the thread picking up speed with the years end coming soon...It's been a rough ride in 2020...I can say for sure, I'll be glad to see it over. But the show must go on! Lets get in the Driver's... err... Model building seats? and finish this years CBR strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
