Mustang 1967 First Generation 1/16th Scale ...Kit AMT

[louis Carabott]

This model was a headache from start to finish . It's an AMT kit and it really needed quite a lot of work

inside the cabin as well as the engine.I portrayed the model as the mount of David and Rob Fenn .

I tried to be faithful as I could. Decals are home made ...Seat belts...spot lights and roll bar built  from scratch  Finished in Gravity paints and lacquer....

I started the pics with the real thing...hope You like it

Very nice, Louis. This Mustang I have too, but only in black. I think I have to disassemble it again and paint it more attractive.

Beautiful Mustang. Really well done. 

[Tom99]

Beautiful, great work, awesome detail.

That red & white look amazing! The extra details you added really grab your attention.+

[ChrisR]

Very nice!

Beautiful model but it's a 66 not a 67.

[Rattlecan Dan]

Very nice detailing. Great-looking model. Nice work.

Your persistence and dedication always pays off Louis. Superb model!

As an aside, have you ever posted a 'how to' on producing home made decals?

Download whatever emblems I want from the web make them smaller (trial and error) and when happy with the right size...print them on a blank decal sheet....when ink is absolutely dry I airbrush a coating of semi matt finish

Really nice Mustang racer there Lou and the details are superb as usual, well done. Here is a pic of my version of a 1st gen Mustang race car.

Cheers,

Amazing replica. A great tribute to a legendary car.

Wow, very impressive. I built a few of these when they first came out but nothing in so much detail. Really cool build.

 

BTW: You need to update the thread title, it say 1967.

Very nice build. Some of those old AMT kits can really be turned into something special with the sort of work Louis has done on this model.

[Phildaupho]

Very nice model. I am a big fan of first gen Mustangs especially race versions.

[Ace-Garageguy]

That looks WAY better than I ever expected that particular kit to look. Nice work indeed, sir.  

[slusher]

impressive!

[Allan31]

Nice work. At that scale and size, there are no short cuts.

[ewetwo]
