bogger44 Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 It's been a busy year cutting into my building time, but here is my 3rd completed model of the year. It's the original issue Revell/Monogram kit, built straight out of the box. Duplicolor Cardinal Red was sprayed onto the body, then polished out. The decals were shot so there's no underhood markings but was no biggie to me. I left off the running horse in the grille as it had broke when I tried removing it from the tree. No big issues in building this one, only the front suspension gave a lil fuss. After taking the pics, I see I overlooked a couple small items I'll address shortly, namely blacking out the face of the scoop on the rear fenders. It doesn't really show up in the pics, but I did paint the rear side marker lights. I may give them another coat of paint to make them pop out a little more. Enough with my rambling, on to the pics...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bogger44 Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Thanks guys. Building something box stock was a nice change of pace and refreshing. Shiney! I have a few of these i need to get done..... i want to make a "vert" cobra as well !! wish me luck! Sounds like a good project, good luck! Looks real! Really nice red, is that a factory color? Don't worry about no hose or decals under the hood, looks good to me! It is a factory Ford color, but not for the Cobra. It is pretty close to the available Rio Red, though. Actually, I'm not sure what years Ford did use Cardinal Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
