So is the 69 interior pattern the same or is it close enough?

Yes! Thank you bid placed.

Thanks for the info, I wasn't sure what would or wouldn't work here. I have never had this kit before, but I have had the others you mentioned. Your right on the 66 kit, it is an AMT. I forgot that. I have a LADart packed away, I will need to dig it out. I can parts box the headers as they don't look too difficult to replace. I could really use Modelhaus for some tail lights though.

I'm glad you found your other Cuda, funny how they end up in the wrong box. I should have searched for the HUG on EBay to see if the Mustang was in the HUG box. I noticed the box top was short as it didn't cover the bottom like the lids got swamped.

About a week ago, I was searching EBay for a Revell 1969 Mustang. You know, the coupe. Not the fastback, the kit with the roof separate from the body. I had one back when it first came out and thought it might be a kit worth taking another look at. I haven't seen one of these in years. Well as you can imagine everything but that kit came up, including this Revell Mustang Funny car. The box looked nice, but the kit is terrible. I clicked on it out of curiosity, and something wasn't right, what was in the box wasn't a Mustang at all but a Hurst Hemi Underglass 1968 Barracuda. Be Still My Heart! I checked out the photos and read the discription, it looked pretty complete. I wanted it ! I bid 25.00, crossed my fingers, I'm the high bidder at $20.50. Long story gets short now. I win it for $20.50. Fast delivery, I open the package and sure enough the 68 Hemi Under Glass. The body and chassis was painted gold, and decal applied and peeling. It's not complete. Probably the biggest issue is it's missing the red tail lights. It's missing headers and the tie rod assembly, but I'm thinking the 66 HUG parts may work. Two hours in the purple pond and it's like new plastic. It pays to look past the box lid.

Amazing project. Keep us posted. I too am curious as to the colors you used. Thanks.

Looks great, I love your color combo!

Looks great

That is great!

Any more on this build?

Fender turn signal indicator

Anything new on this one?

More?

This is great! Glad to see someone enjoying a project.

I just run my numbers and I'm at .029 % built, but I'm retiring in a few years. Then Look out!

I can't wait to see more!

Atlanta is a very large region, spreads out for miles and traffic is a nightmare. Allow plenty of travel time. Try B&B Hobby 1142 Athens Hwy. Ste 107. Grayson Ga.30017. Lots of kits, scratch building plastic, great paint selection.

WOW I like this. Very nice!

Look awesome, very cool model. Very well done it captures the look and feel these cars had!

Very cool. Good for you!

The Maverick pictured is candy red over a gold base. I believe this to be a tribute car or a restored Dyno car. I don't think any of the original cars were Candy.

I haven't revisited this thread in a long time, it's nice to revisit everyone's work areas. Cool thread !

Very well done. Paint looks great!

I love it..... great imagination and execution!

What paint did you use it looks pearl?
