Dirkpitt289 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Coming along nicely. I don't know if it was by design or you forgot but the shifter boot needs some flat black. If by design carry on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the weapon x Posted December 24, 2012 Author Share Posted December 24, 2012 @dirt...thanx Bro..I'll go look that up right now. So it can look by design. Plus I guess I should have said it was the mock up version. I've been doing modeling for about the last 18 years and I'm still amazed by how much detail is involved. so your advice is very much needed and welcomed thank you again. and to everyone else is ever helped me I want to give a special shout out and thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jzaaijer Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I totally this build Jamie, I'm building a 1966 mustang myself right now. How on earth were you able to get that silver foil on the dashboard? It looks very professional! I can't wait to see your next photos. I learn a lot from this.

the weapon x Posted December 27, 2012 Author Share Posted December 27, 2012 Thankx Jzaaijer!!!!! 1st my dude...the dashboard came with that chrome peice already chromed. but I did do the rest of the paint work myself. 2nd Thankx so much for the c Compliment and and encouragement!!! 3rd how far along are you? do you have any pics of that build??? But on to the build..... I decided to make a gas line also... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jzaaijer Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Oh wow! Great attention to detail! I like how you painted the gas tank silver. That must have been a precision job! My 1966 Mustang kit is a re-issue from AMT. It is a very plain kit, but I like it anyway. I'm in the middle of spray painting it. Next to it is my 2010 Mustang. I recently finished that one. What brand is your kit? Revell? It looks very neat. I will follow your progress for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the weapon x Posted December 27, 2012 Author Share Posted December 27, 2012 gas and brake lines almost complete. I'm not sure what brand this is. I think it maybe a revell. I've had this kit for a very very long time... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
