TimJ Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 This is the Revell kit that I started back in 2014. Having sat in its box for a few years I decided it was time to get it finished as part of Snake's Bring Out Your Dead build. Apart from having to trim the dashboard as it fouled the windshield and stopped the body from sitting properly it all went together without any trouble. Colour is Ford Green Jade metallic with a dark grey interior.

vamach1 Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Very nice and unusual color. I wish Revell made the 2003/2004 Cobra kit. All I can find is the 1/18 Maisto diecast.
espo Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Great clean looking build. Very nice paint finish and color.
Spottedlaurel Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Great work Tim, a clean, good-looking build. Well done for persevering with the glass/dashboard issue.
doorsovdoon Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 Looks great. Jade green is an odd colour, there's very few cars it looks good on, it seems to work ok on this. My '67 Impala was Jade green before I stripped it due to bad primer, it looked ok but I was kind of glad I had to strip the paint.
mustang1989 Posted September 2, 2020 Posted September 2, 2020 That's a good looking Mustang. Don't see many of these being built either.
Pierre_tec Posted September 3, 2020 Posted September 3, 2020 Too bad that Revell didn’t make it the 03/04, would it be a great seller, since it’s hard to find the cobra back bumpers.
tim boyd Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 Meant to mention this when I first saw your post a few weeks ago - very sharp build! Brings to mind one of our SVT Wednesday meetings with Ford Special Vehicle Engineering and Team Mustang members back in the day, when I had invited Roger Harney of Revell-Monogram to sit in and we discussed Revell new doing model kits of both the 1999 SVT Cobra and the 1999 SVT Lightning. Fortunately for all of us, he and they followed through, and about a year and a half later, the kits were on the shelves at the stores. So wish there was a similar level of effort and understanding by today's kitmakers of the adult model car market these days! Anyway, Tim, big Congrats on your model. TIM
