Mj-Styro Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 (edited) Been staring at it for awhile now and decided it was time to jump in! Got the rear clip with it as well... Skinned the 1/4 panels like you would in the 1:1 world and made a notch so it would be stronger in the plastic world.. Heres the pics And afew more pics with the 1/4's installed Edited December 19, 2007 by Mj-Styro
Rob Hall Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 Cool...you are quite the master of bodywork. I have a rough AMT '68 Mustang that has the rear quarters wheelwells up in a similar way....I plan to eventually fix it using a donor '68 Shelby body..
Mj-Styro Posted December 8, 2007 Author Posted December 8, 2007 After adding and sanding and priming i am almost ready for some color. Taking shape tho.looks alot better now then it did 6 months ago LOL Put the door lines and trunk lines back in......... HAve it mocked up,still need to go to the inside of the body and do some (alot) grinding to the heavy glue still left. Picked up a Resin interior tub from banditresins, to fit the bill here! have afew junker's for parts of the coupe. maybe later tonight i will be able to get some color on it, thinking Marina Blue.

Ron Hamilton Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 Mike, I love the fact that you have the knack to bring such derelicts back from the grave. A lot of your builds give me the inspiration to get to work. I really like the Ventura and the Mustang . RH
