Eleanor 67 GT500 Mustang

[Ben]

Does anyone else here have the resin transkit of the Eleanor Mustang from Scale Reproductions? I am looking for the decals of the two black stripes that go over the top, center of the hood, roof, trunk,etc.

The kit comes with the lower black stripes with the "GT500" in them but no stripes for the top side? I bought the AMT 67 GT350 Mustang to use as the donor kit and it does come with the stripes but they're white. I need them in black.

If someone knows of some aftermarket decals that would work, that would be great!

Thanks!

Why not try painting them?

[Ben]

I could but i'm hoping theres a decal set out there that has them. See, I have this problem.............i'm lazy! LOL

I just know that I'd lay down a good silver paint job and then mess it up trying to make the stripes perfect! They go all the way from the ground at the front, up over the car, all the way down to the bottom on the rear valance sotheres lots of curves and dips that would be tricky to tape properly.

Ben I think you will find it much more difficult to do the decals than the paint stripes. Here is mine with painted stripes. I used Scale Finishes paint.

Or cut them from solid decal film.

Oooooh, I thought that there was a tiny black pinstripe on the outsides of the stripes.

Len, i'm sorry buddy but that paint job just doesn't look very good!!!! I know, i'll send you my body and hood and you can try again and i'll get rid of your body and hood!
