cobraman Posted June 24, 2022 Posted June 24, 2022 Well , that’s what it started out to be . I guess it still could be but without decals . They were no good . I didn’t think to coat them and you know what happened . So , it will be a plain Jane Boss of sorts . Color is Tamiya TS-50 Mica Blue . Clear is Duplicolor 1k clear . White interior . 3
Dragonhawk1066 Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 That's a nice color, bummer about the decals.
Can-Con Posted June 25, 2022 Posted June 25, 2022 I like the color too. "stripe delete" car. BTW, any reason for the 428 valve covers on the engine instead of the 302 covers?
cobraman Posted June 26, 2022 Author Posted June 26, 2022 Thanks guys ! To be honest I did not notice the valve covers . I think there is another set in the kit . I will check when I get home . Not one to be too much of a stickler on details but I will change them . Thanks for the heads up !

I wouldn't have noticed them myself but I remember them being in there from the Mach 1 kit. There's a few parts still in there from that issue.

cobraman Posted June 26, 2022 Author Posted June 26, 2022 Thank you ! Getting closer to wrapping this one up . Touch up and minor details left to do .
vamach1 Posted June 27, 2022 Posted June 27, 2022 Looks good Ray. I thought Ford missed the mark on the blue with black stripes combo. While the color is beautiful, it was a pretty odd choice by Ford given that they only came in four colors in 1969 with the others being yellow, orange and white all with the black stripes. I have heard the kits decals are very tricky to work with and they would probably be barely visible anyway. The white interior really sets off the exterior color.
cobraman Posted June 27, 2022 Author Posted June 27, 2022 Thank you ! Others (you ) may not agree but for me the 69 Boss is the best looking Mustang ever . ?
