I am really close to getting this one done. In all honesty, it is my best automobile model yet (just watch as i accidently sit on it or something).
Once the front bumper that Mustang here provided (many many thank you's to him for that) arrives, it will be the last touch.
Instead of BMF I might instead do molotow pens or maybe do black trim instead. Not sure which yet.

Chrome trim on one seat, one to go.

Also for size comparison with the GT.

I love the color. The stripes on the rocker panels is more than enough. Well done, Declan! :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:

I just like the purple… not a common car color, so it really makes this one stand out.

Thanks Stik, I agree. Sadly, I made the mistake of doing a Mustang in purple, which is not a real colour you could get on stangs in 1967. BUUTTT this car can be a custom anyway, considering the interior is also a little different than the stock Shelby GT-350.

Under the hood, and with the rest until I get the bumper on.

I am overly happy with the wiper blades themselves. It's a silly little thing, but I think they just look nice.

Another well done!

Yay my bench flooded again! Heavy snowstorm yesterday, no power so no sump. Yipee....
