Scale I Build

Found 4 results

  1. Ford Mustang was introduced on April 17, 1964 at the New York World Fair. Body styles available included a two-door hardtop and convertible, with a fastback added to the line in September 1964. The number of different versions of Mustangs ever produced is enormous, and probably dozens have been a subject of scale model kits over the years. My aim was to build each body style version of the first model year of the first generation: the convertible, the hardtop and the fastback. The fastback from 1965 was the easiest to find. The convertible 1964 is an old Monogram kit found from ebay. Revell now has the convertible in production but at the time I built mine the Monogram was the only one I could find. Hardest to find was the hardtop in 1:24 or 1:25 scale, I could actually only find a model year 1966 kit. All three are out of the box builds. I did make the headlights more realistic in the fastback and the hardtop by drilling holes and placing headlight elements from other kits behind the headlight lenses to give some depth to the lights. I also had some photo etch emblems from Model Car Garage. The convertible exterior color is an original factory shade from Gravity Colors, Fastback has a custom blue metallic paint and the Hardtop was painted with Tamiya spray paint. And of course a lot of wet sanding, compounds and waxing for each. ****
  2. My Pappy has a '66 Mustang. It needs a little help, but hey, it's still a Mustang. Well, I was looking at it the other day, and found a couple of things that stumped me. First off, does anyone know what kind of steering wheel this is? I know it's not factory, but that's about it. Secondly, what are those "bump-outs" on the rear leaf springs? I did some research, but couldn't find anything on them. Thanks in advance.
  3. Hi all , well just a curious thought I was wondering what are the differences in the 64-68 years mustang notchback and or coupe's?
  4. I found this 1966 Mustang at a garage sale. It was made by Mira. A low end model car brand. It looked not so great in red, and the rear wheel was broken. The rear wheels do not have an axle, but the wheels are snapped onto a plastic pin. This pin was broken, and the previous owner had glued the wheel back on, but not exactly in place. The car was now wobbly and the rear wheels did not spin. I stripped the paint, used the spare wheel in the trunk to fix the broken wheel, drilled a slot for a real axle and painted it blue with a white top. All wheels are rolling again. I'm still working on it, but I'm having so much fun with it.
