I built this to be a way less rusty version of my friends old car. 289 HiPo 4 speed Sauterne gold with a Parchment and green interior.

Mostly out of the box with the exception of the tires and some carpeting.I tinted the windows but I think I put a little too much color on.

Great looking Mustang.  The tented windows may be a bit much but it looks good.  Nicely done.

Very nice build and paint color choices.  I do wish Round2 two would make a few changes and substitute the 68 Shelby chassis and forever get rid of the promo style underside with molded in exhaust and rear end and front suspension.  At least we did finally get a nice 66 fastback body though which I hope drives down the instance collector prices for original kits.  They might as well do a convertible version too since the majority of the kit would be the same as the 66 coupe that has been reissued numerous times in the last 55 years.

You mean the 67 chassis. That one is way better than the 68

Very true but it requires a lot of modifications which is worth for a much more accurate chassis and engine compartment.

Love that color , well done !  What did you use to tint the glass ?

10% of a blue green mixing toner in  some abasecoat clear. Sprayed from inside the glass. With a coat if 2k clear over it.

The tint would have been perfect only going on the upper part of the windshield, IMO.

Well if you look at a real car yes the windshield was darker at the top for sure. But the rest of the glass was also tinted a blue green color.

The color combination on your friends Mustang looks great. Like the paint work and the detailed interior.
