mustang1989

HOLEEE SCHMOKES DUDE!!! I never saw this one comin'!!!! I feel like I've totally missed out by not watching this one as it was being built. AWESOME work good friend. Hope all is well with you these days and that you are having a great holiday!

I've had visions in my mind for years of building a 1967 Mustang Fastback model as it would have been if I had one. I've had the pleasure of owning three 67 coupes and always wanted a fastback in real life. My last Mustang was the best of the three because it was built from the first two cars and I had managed to score a 351W from a 69 Mach 1. She also had a 4spd manual transmission and 3.55 gears.

With very few exceptions, you can never go wrong with a Tamiya kit. Great detail and ease of construction make these a "go-to" almost every time. Fantastic work on this motorcycle Mike.

Alright fellas.... I've got the engine compartment finished up save for getting the radiator true with the core support. Dunno what happened there but I'll get it all fixed up in the coming updates.

Thanks for the comments, Ryan.

You're right. Those pictures of that Cobra look nothing short of amazing Bruce. That big block sure looks nice nestled between the fenders buddy.

Sorry for the late reply Carl. Thanks for the kudos and my wife is doing well for the most part. She's been working full time since around 2 years ago but tires easily. To the casual observer she's back to 100% but I see things that no one else does. I do my very best to make her happy and to keep her in good spirits. That lady is a true testament to what God can do in the way of miracles.

Thank you, Mike and Bob!!!

I always get a kick out of your builds Pat!! Love the diorama too bud.

Four VERY sharp rides!!

Good stuff Kurt! Say.....is that an Me163 A?

Dude!!! Those look immaculate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Drop me a line anytime bro.

Magnificent work on all Anders!!

Your paint finishes are to be envied and a wide range of automotive modeling subjects just puts the cherry on top. Well done.

Oh man!! I've been meaning to pick that 55 Chevy Bel Air kit up. Gonna have to go and get me one of those. I've gotta tell ya on that Mustang kit. Revells version is a pretty straight forward kit but if you REALLY want to build a Mustang and it practically put itself together then you might want to spring for this one from Tamiya: You WON'T be disappointed.

I hear what you're sayin' James. For the longest time, I built aircraft and after a while I wanted to get better at it and at the same time, I wanted to build a scale auto that had all the details AND the perfect shine. With all that in mind, I took a break from aircraft building and switched to autos. I've been back twice now to re-visit aircraft modeling since 2014 while learning new techniques while I was away. Aircraft building is something that I enjoy very much but like you, I'm a dang gear head so I've gotta have my auto fix. lol

You picked out the details and painted up that SBC very nicely. Interior looks convincing as well. Great stance and overall look too Bob! Can't wait to see all of this great building come together in the finished product.

Good start so far on the Spitfire James. I know a lot of folks who build in 1/72 scale and turn out some very solid and convincing builds, For me, it's too small a scale to work with. I'm 54 years old and my eyes aint what they used to be so I work in the middle with 1/48 scale. Large enough to work with and put some good detail into and small enough to still fit into my display case. That Cobra kit looks sharp!!

Thanks Carl ol buddy!

Love 'em all but that Corvair and Jag just stand out to me. I know all too well about the workplace drama and all. Hang in there bud.

What a shine!!! Good catch on the cracked nozzle JR.

Thanks, you guys.

That Bronco is indeed a modern art masterpiece!! Pretty spiffy stuff man. I've got a soft spot for the V-8 Impala SS as well. Beautiful build. Got any pictures of under the hood?

I don’t know how you guys can crank all of these high quality builds out. I can barely manage 3 or 4. Maybe that’s a good thing because I’ve only got so much display space. Lol Great looking models buddy
