I started work on one of those myself. I have yet to put paint or primer on it, as I spent a lot of time sanding, cutting, and filing on the body to get it to look better in my eyes.

Fantastic!!!!

Exquisite!!!!!!

I recently picked up one of the Tamiya 300SL's for the collection. I really want one of those for my collection, and seeing yours under construction makes me want it more.

Nice!!!!!

I am still surprised that there is not a full detail kit of the Modern Mustang. Revell markets the simple snap kit of the Mustang, which I have and have not built, simply because it is TOO simple. I am quite sure that Revell did fine with the last rendition of the Mustang, as there were glue and snap kits, Shelby GT's, and a Boss 302 version of the car, each a good kit in their own right. Why we did not get a full glue kit of the current Mustang is anyone's guess. I would not want to see one of the import manufacturers do the car, as it would more than likely be a 1/24 scale kit, and besides I want them to keep on with European and Asian subjects. There is plenty to go around.

Magnificent!!!!!

Wow!

Do you have a link to a source that sells that item?

If I were in the market in the one-to-one world for that type of car, I would probably choose a Challenger over a Camaro, even though I am a Chevy guy. The Challenger is a much more comfortable car to drive to me, and it still looks good after all these years. Now can we get a kit of the Hellcat, or the upcoming Demon? Full detail kit???? Revell? Round2? Mobieus? P.S. How about a Full detailed Mustang while you're at it.

Beautiful!!!!

Another one to add to my Camaro model collection. Thanks Tim. I really enjoyed the 2016 kit.

The second round does look better. Great job!!!!

That is some beautiful work.

I received my Motolow Chrome pens today. I got the 1 and 2 mm pens. I am quite happy with the purchase. I did some touch up on an old bumper, and the chrome from the pen is better than the kit chrome. I may have to get a 4 mm pen. I ordered them form Amazon on Jan 7, and they came in today from England.

That is very clean work. I did the same on one of my AMT '58's. I may dust it off, polish it, and put a post of my build on the board. One of these days, I am going to build a model of my Dad's 58.

I love it !!!! Several years ago, I started on one of the Revell Skyiners, getting the body put together where it looks pretty good. I really hate the way that Revell handled how the trunk hinged, so I am going to make up my own hinges. My kit is moulded in a color that is close to Geranium, which by the way, looks great on your build, but not as good in styrene. I plan to paint mine Black, with a red, white and Black interior. Also, I have gotten my hands on an original 'AMT '59 Ford Galaxie Hardtop, which I am going to convert it into a 4 Door Hardtop, like my Uncle had when I was a kid. His car was also Black, with a red, white and Black interior. My uncle is going to get that one.He does not know it yet.

I have over 1000, so I am good for a couple of lifetimes. I also have plenty of paint and supplies, so as long as they do not deteriorate, I am good. I can always buy glue and putty, but if Bare Metal foil went out of business, I would have to change my building style, or build imported and late model cars with no chrome trim.

I have a pair of '61 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special Sedans. I restored both of them to the point that the are ready for paint. One of them is going to be Black, to be a book end to my '61 Lincoln Continental Sedan.

Very nice work!!!

I have one of those to rebuild. I have not ,made up my mind on where to go with this one, but yours looks pretty good. I took one of the AMT '72's and shortened the fleetside bed to make a 6 1/2 foot bed truck. I have to repaint it, as the Testors' white enamel I used at the time did not go on as smooth on the center as it did on the roof.

Very nice execution.

That looks great!!!

Speaking of '57 Rancheros... I did this one from the Revell '57 Ford Custom Sedan. And yes those Kelsey Hayes wires will look great on your build, in my humble opinion. It's strange, but I have yet to build a '57 Ford straight from the box in a replica stock fashion.I still have several of the AMT, Revell, and a couple of resin kits of the '57 to do one day. One of these days, I am going to whip this one out to do a build. It's going to be like this one... but not as crusty.

One of my cousins had a '63 Bonneville 2 door hardtop, that was Cordovan Maroon, with a Black vinyl roof and Black leather interior. I always thought that was a striking car, and I plan to do my AMT '63 Pontiac Bonneville Hardtop in that color combination, complete with the vinyl roof. I hope my Model Car World Cordovan Maroon paint has not dried up by the time I get around to the build. Several years ago, I used to see the locally shown classic cars in my area. One car that stood out to me was a 1063 Chevy Impala SS 2 Door hardtop. It was a Metallic aqua, with a White vinyl roof, and an Aqua Interior. The vinyl roof was unique in that it was grained similar to a convertible top, instead of the tuxedo grain, which was on my Dad's '65 Olds. I am not sure if it was a factory roof, but it did look good, and the owner of the car displayed a copy of the window sticker. Back in the day, most of the cars I saw with vinyl roofs were either Black, or Beige. A white roof would have been rare, as it would have been a bear to keep clean. I can attest to that, as my Dad had white vinyl roofs on his '68 Olds 98, '71 Lincoln Continental, and his '71 and '72 Lincoln Marks. He was a clean fanatic, and he taught me how to properly clean a vinyl roof when I took over the job of detailing his cars. Judging from your past efforts Steve, no matter what color you paint the build in, it is going to look great.
