I posted some photos of this model on the thread titled "What diecast did you get today?" but I would like to make its own thread as I have seen some interest in this model. This is the new Maisto 1/24 Mustang Cobra. I'll post some more photos later with some mods. Engine detail is poor. The original tires don't look good so I changed the tires with the ones from the 1988 model kit as shown on the kit box (last photo). I'll be flocking the floor too. The first photo show the original tires. If you posted photos on that thread also (like user swede70) post the photos here again if you want.

Definitely an improvement from the original tires. The tires from the kit I mentioned above were a perfect fit. We should make a thread just for this model. I'll also be flocking the floor on mine.

Post a pic with the new tires when you swap them. I might even flock the floor to imitate carpeting.

That's the only flaw I found in this model. I used the tires from this kit and they fit and look great:

There will be a blue one.

Engine detail is very poor. Non steerable front wheels. Other than that, it is a very nice model for the price range. The paint job is excellent and parts fitment very good. I changed the tires on this one and painted the interior gray. It is in backorder till May or June. You may find a few on Ebay for double the price. https://www.ebay.com/itm/305483148460

Best paint job and detail I've seen in years!

2023 BRGB Movin' On Kenworth
angelo7 replied to leafsprings's topic in Model Trucks: Big Rigs and Heavy Equipment
The best build I've seen on this truck. I did one of these but is not as nice as yours. This color is hard to match but you got it spot on. Nicely done! -
Outstanding job. I have this kit with the BJ decals too. How did you do the pointed-down (curbed) red part at the front so they could match the black stripes?

When pick up trucks were still good looking. Two doors. Love them. -

Love the builds that look like the box art. Did you cut the frame? I have this kit still unopened. -

I like the Vietnam ribbon front grille. A signature of all your builds. -
AMT '62 Ford pickup restored

What a nice job! In real life this was a rare and short lived model. It was called the Unibody truck because it did not have a separate bed as regular pick trucks do. It was just one piece body like a car. -
