Glad to have you back Anders, and from the look of it, you still have the mojo. Great build and color choice.

Excellent in all counts. This thing looks so real and that paint finish is flawless. Absolutely nailed it.

Great build , the red on red combo looks awesome and the steelies make it so cool to look at.

Great take on the classic Mustang. Beautiful interior and nice engine details.

Turned out super well Hanjo. That deep blue sure fits well with the white stripes.

Welcome back Shawn, what you will find different now is that we have an almost unlimited access to all sort of resources thanks to forum like this and internet. Wish I had this in the 70's.

The first photo was my inspiration to build this. I took some artistic license as to the year of the truck. I am not sure the military used this kind of box on the 78. The box is scratch built, airbrushed with tamiya acrylics. The wheels/tires are from an Ebay seller; jaysresinwheels1948 and they are really nice. I opened the grille and left everything else pretty much stock. Doing the camo brought memories when I use to build WWII aircrafts. As always , Thanks for looking.

Love this, looks super nice in white. -
Turned out really nice, I like the wheels.

Seeing your beautiful model brought back nice memories when I was 8. A neighbor had just got a blue mustang and he would take me and my sister for Sunday afternoon rides. Great job on the build and the paint.

AMT Pro Street 1970 Dodge Coronet Super Bee
happy grumpy replied to THarrison351's topic in Model Cars
Super nice job on the bee. Great color choice and that Hemi looks right at home. -
Very nice caddy. I like the color. I have a kit of the Austin taxi and it has the same odd scale. Too big for 1/24 and too small for 1/20. Beautiful build all the same.

That's one good looking rod Bob. perfect color for it. Nice and shinny.
-
Beautiful paint job, the trim is super clean. Excellent job.

Very nice take on the 55, I like what you've done with it.

Thanks Tim. Thanks James Thanks Pierre. Thanks Michelle. Thanks Larry. Thanks Garry. Thanks Trevor. Thank you John, glad you like it. Thanks David, Kudos to Revell for tackling this classic mustang. Thanks Tom Thanks Rex. Thanks Chris. Thanks Mathias. Thanks Lee. Thanks Rich, there are a few that didn't make the finish line but they ended up being part donors for other projects. Likewise, I do enjoy your posts as well. Thank you David. The decals lay down perfectly and only need a minimum of setting solution. Thanks David, I appreciate it. Thanks Christopher. Thanks Harry, yes, the gauges are on the decal sheet and they are super nice. Thank you Donato. Thanks Steve. Like you, I wasn't a fan back then but when the kit came out it kind of ignite a spark and I do appreciate it more nowadays but still my favorite years are 67-68-69. Thanks Eric. Thanks Donald.
