Beautiful looking paint finish and I think Ford called that "Calypso Coral". The factory style striping all looks great. The chrome trim and engine detailing are cleanly done.  

The color I was going for is officially called " Special Light Orange" code #WT5107 as seen on a 1968 Shelby GT500KR on May 17/2024 at the Mecum Indianapolis Ind. auction.

Awesome work 
I may get another of this particular 71 mustang I might get the revell 71 Mach 1 kit to do this other project with 

It turned out pretty well... thanks for the comments

That is just flat out beautiful! I bought both of the Mustang kits so I can build a replica of my uncles Mach I with a 351 Cleveland.

a nice rendition of a great kit. I built mine almost the same color as yours. I looks awesome with the black trim. Great job on the engine. Like you, not my favorite mustang but the Revell kit is so good it starts to grow on me. I hope they will make an Eleonor version if they can have licensing for it.

Thx guys...

Outstanding, excellent color choice, not much more I can say that hasn’t already been written, except I really like your build.

Looks great.  I was like that with the green car I did.  Saw another one like it, and knew I had to build one.

Fantastic!

That looks amazing! The color combination is awesome. I think after 70, the Mustang got really ugly (especially base model Mach 1s), but the "Boss" edition is gorgeous.

Very nicely done!

Great build there Dan, I can't help but wonder why this colour was not more popular back in 71. The hood looks to be painted or you have mastered the art of laying your larger decals faultlessly. Really well done and thanks for sharing.

On this kit the center of the hood is painted and the edges are a one piece decal... a bit difficult to lay down and match the colors but it worked.

Thanks
