Revell 1969 Shelby GT500

I started this build at least 16-17 years ago with my girlfriend now wife. She was doing her best to show interest in my hobbies as teenagers. 

15 years of marriage, 2 houses, 3 kids later and it's one of the kits I have closest to completing. 

Restarted by scribing lines and throwing sprue glue on some of the part gaps. 

I want to lower it another 3-4 scale inches for a different overall presence. 

After that it's repaint almost the whole car, start adding details and wrap it up.

Yeah, of the various pushes to build kits from the stash, this has been my strongest. I mention the houses as there were several moves including apartments, and my whole stash has lived in moving boxes for 20 years. 

This strong push to complete kits meant a lot of kits saw the light of day for the first time in 20 years lol. 

This one being closer to completion of the really old ones meant it got the nod to come out.
