Thanks Carl! I appreciate that you try to follow along.

The body has been clearcoated with Tamiya TS-13 Gloss Clear.

I got the 4.6 Ltr. engine assembled. All touched up, too.

Ready for Gloss Clearcoat!

I have the Revellogram Mustang GT and the Mustang Cobra built and a Mustang Cobra in the stash. The Revellogram GT and Cobra were fun builds, but this AMT kit is not starting out that way. The quality control was not existent when this kit came out. Now I must be patient and work on this Mustang GT as needed. Now I understand why I prefer Revell model kits and others versus AMT/Round2 kits. But, then I have known of this for some time now! Thanks DJ!

This is a horrible kit with many problems with it. So far, I have had to study closely the instruction sheet for the reassembly (several times) of the cylinder heads and I have issues with the front end of the body plus all of the scraping of the extra flash.

I was going to start this later, but now seems like a good time for it! This is the AMT '97 Ford Mustang GT and the body is partially assembled. The body paint will be Dupli-Color Amazon Green Metallic with a tan and black interior. The model will be built stock with some wiring on the engine. So far there is a ton of flash on this model and for this much flash, the model should be a lot older than this. Let the scraping begin!

The Raptor is up on 4 wheels! The Hemi Orange and the Black paint look great! Now to get some Gloss Clearcoat.

Jeff, you can add more than one picture to a post! Nice start on your Cobra!

Thanks Carl! I've started the arduous task of masking the Raptor body for the black out treatment. It's a good thing this tape has a limited tack as I usually leave it on for about a week or so.

I like what you have done to this kit! Good job! I have this kit in the stash for building later.

WOW! Looks great! I built one as well with a push bar and fog lights.

I finished my porthole top for the 1956 Thunderbird. Overall, not my best work, but it'll do as a shelf queen.

Thank you Donato and David!

I painted the Raptor this morning. Testors (Rustoleum) Hemi Orange Lacquer. What do you think?

Thank you Mario, Carl and Chris!

Thank you, Larry and Keith!

An orange to match the orange plastic. Probably Testors Hemi Orange as I have plenty of that.

I decided to glue the body and the bed as one for painting and ease of use. I know that many of you builders wouldn't bother, but I'm different!

The interior and the chassis have been assembled and painted. The wheels were hit with a coating of Tamiya X-19 Smoke which dulled the chrome significantly.

Thanks Jeff, Andy, Bob, Lei and David! I wanted a '56 T-Bird and this built-up was given to me by a fellow who thought I built my '57 T-Bird very well. My '57 was a copy of the Thunderbird from the TV series Vega$ starring the late Robert Urich.

The T-Bird is done except for the porthole top which needs to be repainted in white.

1956 Ford Thunderbird The T-Bird has got the body assembled to the frame and now I am adding some of the chrome bits to the body. The taillights have been painted and detailed. I should decide on a color for the top, be it white or red. It has been painted white, but I'm not happy with it.

I got this kit at the Club Meeting yesterday. This is a Snap Tite kit from Revell and I decided to go ahead and build it in spite of the other projects I have on the bench. I'm just gonna polish the body and paint the trim and the chassis details and then add the stickers. No decals with this kit. Let's see what final assembly gives me...

Looks great! Excellent job!
