Yep it's a nice kit, I have it in my stash together with SMS transkit...
If I ever build it, I'd love to give it colour scheme based on this classic '69 302 Boss: http://www.rkmotorscharl...ustang-Boss-302/134737#!/ - although for now I have no idea how to tackle the thin parallel lines that flow, diverge and merge along the car body.

Happy building :-)

Well I know I shouldn't since we are off on hols in a couple of days but here is a start.
I've cut one of the doors out, just the boot, the other door and the inners to go.

Hi all a small update on this







I used copper wire for this which I think is a bit too soft the door sags when opened so i think I will have to change it for some other sort of wire, I also think I need to move the hinge further back on the door so it clears the body better, but quite pleased for a first attempt at opening a closed door.

Hi all last update for a week as on hols in the morning

Uprated the door hinges, no sag now
thought I better check clearances with the internals, as you can see only about 1/2 a mill clearance, that's a lucky one.


given her a coat of primer so she will have a week for that to fully cure
