I started my GT today. Primed it, promptly dropped it. That's ok, the primer wasn't all that well applied anyway so it gives me a chance to fix some things. Engine is started too.

Which kit you building? yeah, I was painting a hood, putting my last pass of clear on, it promptly fell off the holder, and landed wet side down on the floor

Uh, that is a universal rule........

LOL! Yup, I’ve had that happen to me a few times. As Lyle mentioned, it’s a universal rule these days….

This is the Revell kit.
Glad to see I'm not alone in this!

Funny…. I know this isn’t the same car but I have never seen the movie, Ford vs Ferrari. I know there is a car kit of the Ford GT from that movie out there.

Yes Meng just came out with a 1/12 and a1/24 '66 GT40 MKII with markings for all three cars (Ford finished 1,2,3 in Le Mans in 66) and there's the old Fujimi kit as well. I did the Fujimi kit ages ago - it's a curbside. I have the 1/24 Meng kit in the stash it is a beauty!
BTW - watch the movie!

There is, it is by Meng I believe.
I plan to do the Polar Lights 2006 Ford GT and maybe the 1966 GT all in the same colour.

Despite dropping it, it is now silver. I kind of want to keep it this way but I also want to do the blue over it. Hmm





It has some paint boogers but it's pretty good looking.
