    Those look good for that Jeep. Is that the old Revell Mork and Mindy Jeep? The Linbergh F150 has some nice tires too.

    Nice build. Yea, seems the 70's and 80's kits had the smaller tires

    I recently bought a set of desert dog tires and wheels from that site. These things are HUGE. Definitely not what I wanted. I know there is a 1/25 scale desert dog that is smaller, but not sure where to find them. Anybody have a clue? Pic is a comparison to the Firestone tires from my Super Stones truck

    What are those tires from?

    If you cut the valance off, cut the front fenders also. It is one of the many inaccuracies of this kit. Your build is looking great though

    I have a Monogram 66 Mustang built... the front end just looks wonky to me. The 67 Coupe would just need side panels for the rear and a rear seat. They could add a score line on the fastback side panel to remove the rear section. Just a thought.

    Very cool... Those metallic colors sure do pop

    I love the color. Looking good!!!

    I like it a lot. Glad to see it was not a graft on the front clip conversion. That would have been really tough to boot. As for the Olds body line, it must stay. Possibly make it a bit more subdued like the Olds wagon.

    I just came across this thread..... I must now nap from my information overload and astonishment of this build! Wow, just wow

    Being a Pinto fan, I'll be watching. Nice job on the inner fenders. Put a flat piece on top the chassis and it will look pretty good.

    This one always turned me off. Nice kit, bad representation.

    I have several of the faux Boss 351 kits, but I may need to get this one too. The front looks nice, I would just need to use the much nicer AMT tail light and bumper. The bucket seats in the MPC version are horrible IMO, so I may need to cast some from my original AMT 71 Mustang since they are much nicer.

    Did not see an "era" specified so then I would pick this as my other dream hot rod. Traditional, Y-block powered. None of the resto-mod changes, rubber band tires. or aero mirrors.

    Mine are fairly simple.... Bodies for 65/66 Mustang fastback. 69 Torino Hardtop, 61 Starliner, 67 Mustang Coupe, correct bed for the Firestone truck......ect Retool a few older kit suspensions. (63/64 Chevy, 63 Galaxie, 69 Riviera, 66 Mustang. 73 Mustang, 72 Chevy truck ect) All these mentioned and more could be done as new kits with parts from existing kits My 2 cents

    Well, I built this kit as a teenager and had no issues. It is an old kit, and takes patience and trial fits, but to say it sucks is an over-reaction IMO If this kit gives you so many issues, get the Revell snap kit or the high price Revell glue kits.
  18. Sledsel
    That is cool. I can see the Stroppe Edsel influence for sure. The details are amazing.
  19. Sledsel
    To be fair... no box art can save this kit
  20. Sledsel
    What is that color? Looks sharp
  21. Sledsel
    No windshield either

    Looks really good. Difficult kit to get looking good, but you did it.
  23. Sledsel
    Looks fantastic!!!
  24. Sledsel
    Love that kit from 74.. Would like to get my hands on one

    The Mustang II was not modified for the Python kit. The panels were add ons.
