The Revell "Build and Play" kits like the Mustangs, Raptor, and Ford GT are simple enough that a child can assemble them, but respond well to a little paint and detailing if one of us old folks wants a slump-buster.
I just sold one of these on ebay in March. It definitely has a V8, described as a "283" on the box. I know it should be a 265. I guess Revell was sloppy with details even back then.
In most cases, front seats will have a separate backrest piece that will leave a visible seam when you glue the seat together. That is reason enough in my mind to require primer and paint on the seats. I cringe when I see some otherwise stellar builds on here with a big, visible seat seam.
I ASSumed that the items I ordered were in stock. I suspect they aren't. None of the hobby vendors have the particular set I ordered. This is why I asked on here. I figured someone would know if something is going on. I have emailed him three times, he has not responded to two of them.
Anyone order directly from MCG recently? I placed an order near the beginning of the month, and all I can say is that Bob's service has been "Reliable" if you know what I mean. I really didn't expect that this would happen. I ordered a fret on eBay that should have what I need for my current project. I suspect that I will have to go through PayPal to get my money back from Bob.
