kelson Posted July 11, 2023 Posted July 11, 2023 New project on the bench,i painted and cleared this about a month ago, when i was working on the Bmw,went for a less common color Light Cadet Blue. 3
Zen Posted July 12, 2023 Posted July 12, 2023 Looking good, is this going to be a stock build? That color looks grey in the pics. 1

StanGlover Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 Following! I built this kit and the later ‘92 GT a few years ago. These Monogram fox body Mustangs are one of my favorite kits to build. Simple construction but enough detail to look convincing. 4
Zen Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) The Monogram kits are my favorite also, need to build a copy of this one I owned. Edited July 14, 2023 by Zen 4
kelson Posted July 15, 2023 Author Posted July 15, 2023 Okay some progress,engine is painted gray as Ford changed the color,also modified the valve covers couldn't find any pics with kit pieces.I had no gray spark plug wire so i went with black. I also modified the seats a bit,i cut off the recaro headrests and used headrests from a 69'Vette instead. Going with a white /blue interior,so 25 minutes of masking for 2 minutes of painting,also changed the steering wheel the kit one appears to be from 79-82.
kelson Posted July 16, 2023 Author Posted July 16, 2023 (edited) Late yesterday,i got the engine/undercarriage all joined together.? Edited July 16, 2023 by kelson 1
kelson Posted July 24, 2023 Author Posted July 24, 2023 Thanks for the comments guys!,the interior is finished i used my old Detailmaster woodgrain sheet for the instrument panel and 93'svt gauges for the speedometer and such.The pedals are from a 66'Fairlane I added P/E keys and turn a turn signal lever made from stretched sprue. The finished interior: seatbelts were made using Pactra 1/16 masking tape and colored with a blue sharpie 2
kelson Posted July 24, 2023 Author Posted July 24, 2023 This weekend i masked and painted the body trim with so/so results, i just couldn't get the tamiya tape to lay flat on the area where the little body color stripe is.? 2
slusher Posted July 24, 2023 Posted July 24, 2023 Great interior and the body looks beautiful Curtis! 1
Dann Tier Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 I've owned a few fox bodies before -love'em, and i'm loving your build here as well! 1
kelson Posted August 7, 2023 Author Posted August 7, 2023 Okay back with another update the licence plates are complete.The taillights are done i used a decal for the black area instead of painting and Tamiya paints for the colors. Still not happy with the trim,but trying to use a little thinner started to remove the paint as well,hoping to finish it up tomorrow just have a few things to do. 2
adamelvis Posted August 10, 2023 Posted August 10, 2023 I recognize those plates Curtis ! Nice build, my friend. Adam 1
