Snake45 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Maybe because only about 6 of them were made? If you want one, it should be easy to bash up out of existing kits. And you'd have enough left over to make another model of some kind.
Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) How many of these were made ? Edited July 12, 2015 by Greg Myers
62rebel Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 the 'stang is really quite easily kitbashed using the two existing Monogram kits.
Ace-Garageguy Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 How many of these were made ? Actually, none. The engine represented in the kit doesn't exist in reality. It's a liberally interpreted, much scaled-down version of an old aircraft engine.
Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) Yeah, yeah, I get it, kit bash it, get the resin version, but in this day and age of the model companys wringing out every last possible version of their kits this seems like a no brainier . Along with a coupe / notch back. Edited July 12, 2015 by Greg Myers

jbwelda Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 The world really doesn't need yet another mustang model. jb
mike 51 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) I think a 67-8 coupe 2n1 would be a good seller...stock and trans-am racer. even if no one asked Edited July 12, 2015 by mike 51
Deano Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Wasn't there a 1:1 scale show rod Red Baron built with a slant 6 for the engine? Pontiac over-head cam 6, actually.
om617 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 I think a 67-8 coupe 2n1 would be a good seller...stock and trans-am racer. even if no one asked California Special & Trans Am?
mike 51 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) California Special & Trans Am? The California Special wasn't really very "special" it was kind of a joke at the time.. .I'd perfer just a stock coupe (without the do dahs) and the Trans Am. Edited July 12, 2015 by mike 51
Snake45 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Uh oh, was that a nazie helmet I spied ? Can't be, as they didn't even exist yet during World War I. Don't they teach you kids history in schools anymore?
mike 51 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Uh oh, was that a nazie helmet I spied ? Wrong war...
mike 51 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Can't be, as they didn't even exist yet during World War I. Unlike that silly "car" ???
Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 Look at the Air cleaner / filter chrome cover thingie. Just because it has a spike on it doesn't make it a pickelhaube.
vamach1 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 I'd rather see a nice 67 and 68 Shelby convertible and the 70 Boss 302 T/A racer.
Deano Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 Concerning the air cleaner on the Red Baron: Allow me to be the first to say "So What, Big Deal!" Or, are we so close to the new moon that we have to turn stoooopid?
Jon Haigwood Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 How hard would be to make a 641/2 Mustang Convert into a 66 Shelby ?
Snake45 Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 How hard would be to make a 641/2 Mustang Convert into a 66 Shelby ? Pretty much easy as adding the Shelby bits from a '66 350 kit.
Jon Haigwood Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 From what I see only difference between a 64 1/2 (65) and a 66, gas cap, side louvers and grill. All these would get changed anyway. Easy Peasy
Greg Myers Posted July 12, 2015 Author Posted July 12, 2015 Well there ya go. We don't need any new kits. Just go out and buy another older out of production kit.
jbwelda Posted July 12, 2015 Posted July 12, 2015 (edited) oh we need new kits...just not of the same old same old. heres one vote for a Lotus Elise. jb Edited July 13, 2015 by jbwelda
