hellonwheelz3 Posted December 8, 2013 Posted December 8, 2013 That looks good so far. It's funny I'm doing the same car for the same reason. Something to get back into it. I'm doing the pd version though. Looks great!

Johnny1973 Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Thats a good idea heres one of my current mustangs...and always did want a calypso coupe I always like that color on the Lx.I also like the Gt with the Deep Emerald Green with the Titanium trim! Scalefinishes has the Calypso green available.
ChrisPflug Posted December 11, 2013 Posted December 11, 2013 Nothing says early 90s like a Calypso Green Ford
Abell82 Posted December 13, 2013 Posted December 13, 2013 Nothing says early 90s like a Calypso Green Ford No Doubt!
L1C4 Posted December 14, 2013 Author Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) No Doubt! Thats badass any other pics? And what kit is that? Edited December 14, 2013 by L1C4
Terminator-Fox Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 Must be a Resin body since no one has come out with an LX hatch. I plan on building a model of my 1:1 91 Calypso Hatch someday
Abell82 Posted December 14, 2013 Posted December 14, 2013 It's a 93 Mustang Cobra Converted to LX specs with a resin front bumper cover and resin rear spoiler, both of my own designs.
