mustang1989 Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 I built this 30 years ago and is the last kit that I picked up from my parents house over the weekend. This one didn't fare as well as the others that I've picked up from there over the course of the last year or two due to not being in a case. This is probably what the rest of 'em woulda looked like without cases though. My question is what kit is this? I cannot for the life of me remember.
Jantrix Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 Great find. I'd clean it up, fix anything broken as best you can. And then leave it as is. This isn't a rare kit and IMHO, it's important to save the old builds that show how far you have come as a builder.
mustang1989 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 Thanks fellas! Rob: That's what I intend to do. I just cleaned up the hood and dipped into Future and I've already got a kit spotted and will use it for the headlamps and windows. I'll be restoring it to the way it was when I finished it and nothing more.
JTalmage Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 I love the "flat tire" up front, like it was an abandoned drag racer that had the windows busted out. I wouldnt change a thing! Dust and all!!
mustang1989 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 LOL!! Ha! Ha!! Thanks for the input Jesse!
JTalmage Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 You're welcome. makes me want to find that kit now and make a tribute to it. I have ideas brewing already.
mustang1989 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Posted July 6, 2015 I love the "flat tire" up front, That sir, is 30 years of sitting out in the heat of a room without air conditioning. The tires have "melted" somewhat.
Speedfreak Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 Very cool Joe. Looks like you did a pretty good job 30 yrs ago!
