1964 Mustang Convertible

Post by Ceaser_Sa1ad »

Oops I did it again...


It's been a minute, hi again. I have been working stupid hours and haven't really had a minute for modelling, but I got this 'stang from marketplace which really inspired me to get going. This is the pace car kit, monogram I believe.

I don't have pics yet, I will post some later tonight. So far the body is painted and polished, a nice shade of blue, yet to do chrome or trim/badges. Engine is wired, exhaust is painted. Suspension needs work.

I want to do a white or grey interior, as I am doing a white top. Thoughts? Maybe white with blue accents.

Could it be Declan? Howdy young man! Good to hear from you.

Here are my late pictures:

I wanted to experiment with making a full wire harness for most the electronics I can find. I am following these diagrams, starting with the tiny white thing at the end which I hope to make look properly like the starter relay.

I have yet tried wiring my distributors in any of model car kits. Someday…
