1966 Ford Mustang from HUNTER

[michelle]

Made this with a amt 66 mustang hardtop This is a replica of the 66 mustang driven by Tony Ward's character Hunter in the Australian spy show HUNTER that ran from 1966 to 1969 I made a figure of Hunter using a g scale model rail road diorama figure
I did a right hand drive dash conversion as this car used was one of the less then 200 ford mustangs brought over to Australia in 65 and 66 and converted into a right hand drive to be used to showcase the new mustang based falcons
I used the few color promo images from the show as well as photos the restored hero car from the show as paint guide as the series was only in black and white 
I painted the body a base coat of rust-oleum 2x satin French blue with a top coat of plasti dip metalizer
i painted the interior rust-oleum 2x satin French blue
I hand made the number plates used on the car in the show
i have the theme song for the series playing in the background of the video

G’day Michelle. I have vague recollections of seeing reruns of this show as a kid. I guess it’s the main reason I love American cars, seeing them on TV as a kid. Nice work on the Mustang. ??

thank you 
it is not available to watch online non of the Crawford production shows are but there is the theme song are avalible on youtube and imcdb has a page with screenshots of the cars and trucks and bikes used in the show and wikipedia and imdb both have pages on the show
crawford's sells dvd box sets of all thier classic shows but only in australia and new zealand and in the uk via Crawford's distributor there eaton films who can sell to other countries but you will need a region free dvd player to play them
