Merkur XR4Ti Posted March 19, 2019 Posted March 19, 2019 Revell snap kit, wheels and tires from the ‘68 Mustang kit, custom color I made myself using Fathom Green as a base. It’s not perfect as I had to use the kit stickers for the front stripes, but I’m happy with the result.
Hard_2_Handle_454 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Wish mine looked half that good. It was damaged and I never got a new one.
Tommy124 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 (edited) Looks good! I am in the process of building the same kit currently and I know about the sticker stripe "problem". You did solve that one well but for my body color white stripes wouldn't work so I won't use it anyway. I like your wheels too. Would like to see more than just one picture though...

I had procured a set of decals of the AMT version of this kit which in theory should have worked much better, but they had a really strange reaction to being set down on the hood and resulted in dozens of bumps and bubbles on a smooth surface. I had no such issues with the stripes on the back. I had to peel and rip off the AMT decals from the hood because the result wasn't acceptable. All I was left to work with were the Revell stickers. Very frustrating at the time, but I made do as best I could.
