More done on the Mod Rod Hot Rod. The instructions showed to mount the taillights onto the top of the rear fender for this version. I didn't a\want to do that, so I drilled a hole into the bottom of the taillights and inserted a copper wire to use as a pin. I drilled holes into the sides of the fenders then pinned the taillight into the hole. It's not glued yet, but I think it looks pretty cool. I did the same to the headlights, and finished the interior. The shifter is a sewing needle that I heated and bent to shape.

Paint looks great, nicely done!

Nicely done, great color choice!

It turned out great, nicely done!

Thanks everyone!

I got the decals applied on the Mod Rod today. I also got the headlights, taillights, and front and rear nerf bars ready to be installed, and the frame glued to the fender assembly.

I figure it's about time to get back to work on the Mod Rod Hot Rod. I got the body parts wet-sanded, polished, and waxed. I taped off and painted the running boards, and painted the 'straps" on the fuel tank in Molotow Chrome.

Thanks guys!

Thank you Mario. Thanks Roger.

Probably hanging out on a container ship just off the coast of California for a couple of months.

Thanks a lot guys!

Thanks a lot guys, much appreciated!

Very good looking old Ford!

My version of AMT's 1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT-350, I'm calling "The Great Pumpkin". Paint is Createx Pearl Tangerine sprayed over Anita's Galvanized Tin basecoat. The stripes are Decoart Extreme Sheen Obsidian with some Delta Black mixed in. It's cleared with Createx UVLS 4050 Gloss clear, wet-sanded, polished, and waxed. The interior is black craft paint, the chassis is a mixture of craft paints, as is the engine. I used Pegasus 19 and 23 inch Hella's for the wheels, and sprayed Tamiya Clear Orange on the Off The Sprue machined aluminum air cleaner. I added plug wires and door locks for extra detail, and Bare Metal Foil was used for the trim. It's a pretty nice kit overall, as it's mostly the same as the AMT 1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback except for the front and rear ends.

Very nice!

Nice work!

That's a pretty sharp color! I'm currently working on that kit as well. I painted mine Pearl Tangerine with painted on Pearl Black racing stripes.
