Zen Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Looking good, is this going to be a stock build? That color looks grey in the pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is,i thought the color looks a little off,but then i see other pictures on the net and it looks almost exact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanGlover Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Following! I built this kit and the later ‘92 GT a few years ago. These Monogram fox body Mustangs are one of my favorite kits to build. Simple construction but enough detail to look convincing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) The Monogram kits are my favorite also, need to build a copy of this one I owned. Edited July 14, 2023 by Zen 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelson Posted July 15, 2023 Author Share Posted July 15, 2023 Okay some progress,engine is painted gray as Ford changed the color,also modified the valve covers couldn't find any pics with kit pieces.I had no gray spark plug wire so i went with black. I also modified the seats a bit,i cut off the recaro headrests and used headrests from a 69'Vette instead. Going with a white /blue interior,so 25 minutes of masking for 2 minutes of painting,also changed the steering wheel the kit one appears to be from 79-82.

kelson Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 Thanks for the comments guys!,the interior is finished i used my old Detailmaster woodgrain sheet for the instrument panel and 93'svt gauges for the speedometer and such.The pedals are from a 66'Fairlane I added P/E keys and turn a turn signal lever made from stretched sprue. The finished interior: seatbelts were made using Pactra 1/16 masking tape and colored with a blue sharpie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelson Posted July 24, 2023 Author Share Posted July 24, 2023 This weekend i masked and painted the body trim with so/so results, i just couldn't get the tamiya tape to lay flat on the area where the little body color stripe is.😡 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kelson Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 Okay back with another update the licence plates are complete.The taillights are done i used a decal for the black area instead of painting and Tamiya paints for the colors. Still not happy with the trim,but trying to use a little thinner started to remove the paint as well,hoping to finish it up tomorrow just have a few things to do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
