67 Shelby 1/25 GT500

[vamach1]

After a long time, a lot of parts from many sources and some lousy winter days, I have finished this one for now.

The only things I may add later are plug wires and the seat belts that hang from the roll bar.

This began as a AMT 68 Shelby with a Mini Exotics conversion plus some parts from the AMT 67GT350.

Awesome build Rex! Sounds (and looks) like you put a lot of work into it. Super cool.

Great build, What is the paint? If you do add the spark plugs and wires be sure to take pics.Interested in how it will look!
Love you collection! LOL, keep up the good work!
Just started a AMT '66 Fairlane 500 427! That is the one where Ford only made them in white for racing. Only like 56 made in 66. Lots of flash etc to clean up.

I painted it so long along I cannot say for sure - probably a Testors red. Other things not evident are a resin rear end, photo etch grille, wheel center emblems, and taillight trim, windshield washer bag, and roll bar. The funny thing is in the group picture I forgot to include the AMT 67 GT350 I built several years ago.
