An excellent build!  Your paintwork looks really good, and the engine wiring is outstanding!  I'll offer-up two suggestions; if possible, try detail-painting that MUSTANG lettering across the trunklid in Silver paint. Secondly; many. many builds that I see have the molded-closed air cleaner snorkel left as is; molded-closed.  My personal opinion; drill the snorkel open, (like modelers frequently do to open-up molded-closed exhaust pipes), and for me, the realism factor in the engine compartment goes up a lot when that snorkel is opened-up!

Hey Mark thanks for the suggestions ...  not  painting the  "Mustang"  lettering on the rear was an oversight by me,  I think I was so glad to finally have this finished that I forgot about that.  

Yes I agree about opening up the end of the intake snorkel...   thanks for that.
