  14. The color I was going for is officially called " Special Light Orange" code #WT5107 as seen on a 1968 Shelby GT500KR on May 17/2024 at the Mecum Indianapolis Ind. auction. Cheers DanL

  16. Saw a "Bright Orange" 1970 Mustang cross the auction block recently and really liked the color with black accents. I used Krylon Pumpkin Orange with a white primer base coat and got a good approximation of the Bright Orange color. The paint went on easy and the bare metal foil also went smoothly other than the glue residue left around the edges. The glue removed easily with soap and water. This newly tooled kit is a great build with a few issues. Hopefully we will see more of this quality kit coming from Revell in the future. The decal kit was a treat... really nice quality and full of extras to add character to the build. I made some changes as I went along including a front end drop of 2mm, Spark Plug wires and Boots, and a Dip Stick. The problems came from a front end that sat too high and bumpers that had vague mounting points. I recommend building this kit even though the 71 mustang may not be everyone's favorite. (I think they should have done a new 1970 Mustang in all it's variations) Cheers DanL PS: The engine blue is much darker without the camera flash
