I am not a real big fan of the 1:1 Concept Mustang but after seeing what you did with it in scale I have to say it looks 10000 times better than the 1:1! :lol: I always thought it needed something but couldn't figure out what. You nailed that perfectly! Great job and I can't wait to see more. B)

I have to agree on that. I also like your comment: "You nailed that" Were you referring to the fact he used nail polish....? :D

soo back to this car it had a bad reaction to the clearcoat which now promps me to add a light coat of future floorwax from now on before fully clearing the body. i might change up the whole car theme

this was a 2 day soak to get the clear off

Oh man how sad! This thing was lookin' good! Bummer about that clear.

Are those tires from the '56 kit as well? I've been eye balling that kit just for the rims, if the tires are in there too I think I'd be sold on it! Thanks.

That is awesome. I have pulled this kit out and restarted it three times. I want to be the first to say that I am going to steal your idea. That is awesome. Great eye and keep going I would love to see this one finished up
