Revell 1970 Ford Mustang Pastel Blue

Post by LyleW »

This is SWMBO build. Pam had a 70 pastel blue Mustang with a 302 in it. Like most on here, we've regretted getting rid of it all those years ago. So, while the clear gloss is drying on the H-34,

I've been wet sanding with 6K and up on this...get bored and needed something to do.

Then there is this thing. Can't see to find where the propeller goes, though.

Looks sweet!

Very nice! I built a pick up that my wife used to have and painted it the same color and everything.

An auspicious beginning Lyle. I'll be watching.
