  1. Evening guys A few days ago, I couldn't imagine that I'll open simultaneously three threads in the WIP section ! But my birthday was September 30th, and my wife thought it was funny to give me a poisoned gift, probably tired of me complaining about the plastic kit bodies that I regularly torture when I don't get my way! So I received THIS 😮🤔: Of course, I used to build Lego with my two sons some decades ago, and more recently with my elder grand-daughter, who is near 5 years old and is a passionate of Legos. I don't want to bore you with this type of construction, but after all, I won't be the first to do it on this website, and there's no reason why I should be the only one to fall back into childhood! 🤣 So I decided to share it with you, and I will build this model (splendid by the way) very slowly, at the rhythm of my little daughter's stays at home (about twice a month) because I have the desire to build this Mustang with her. So, you can buy beer packs and ton of popcorn for these 313 steps build !!!!!! And a last word: don't worry, there's no way to modify this kit with scratch-building.....unless.... 😉
  2. Foreword: When I have begun this project, I had a lot to learn about this legendary car that I had decided, very lately (I was about to build another legendary Ford, the T model), to construct. I just knew that I loved her unique and dynamic design, and that I intended to build a red Convertible version, like the one belonging to the father of one of my good friends... I even didn't make the difference between the Coupe and the Fastback versions, what would lead me to order the Fastback 1/24 Revell kit, while the conversion to a Convertible would be much more easy from a Coupe. It may be added that I preferred a bigger scale, and the 1/16 AMT Coupe kit became so an obvious choice, despite its old age... I realized a bit too late this first error, and had to send back the Revell kit... The reader will notice that in the first month, I would change my mind several times, especially about the rims and about the precise version... That is why in the first pages, I was focused (among others) on the right red color to apply, while I would finally, about 1 month after the beginning of this topic, change my mind and decide to build the Wimbledon White Indy 500 Pace car version (post# 128, p. 6). Only fools never change their mind... The follower who will begin reading this topic will find out pages and pages these changes coming into my tortured brain... I apologize for that and I thank you for your comprehension Olivier, August 12, 2018, edited August 21. ......................................................... Hello to all, After the P-51D Mustang "Missouri Armada" here I am, back again, for a new Mustang project, but in the vehicles section this time . I love the Ford Mustang (especially Convertible) in her vintage version of about 1965: This photo shows a Ford Mustang 1965 that belongs to the father of a good friend of mine, and I am going to go and meet him - he doesn't live too far from me -. He kindly sent to me a few photos of his amazing Convertible Mustang, exactly the one I'd like to represent. Of course, I will complete these photos by many other ones I will do when I meet him... There are a few kits of the hard top one, but I clearly prefer the Convertible. So I decided to buy the quite recent Revell 1/24 kit, and to modify it to get the Convertible of my dreams: I would have preferred a bigger scale, but the only proposition one is the old and probably quite poor AMT 1/16 one: I should get tomorrow the Revell kits (I bought 2 sets on the Conrad site, considering the low cost of this kit, and in order to have replacement parts in case of problem). For info, the 2 sets are less than 40€ including shipping... I hope this build will get followers interested. Cheers Olivier P.S: before beginning this new thread, I have checked in Britmodeller if someone had ever built this Convertible vintage Mustang but no, no one did that. I just found this in the Ready for inspection section, a fastback version build from the same Revell kit, by MikeGTC: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=14&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwi0iIGgwpfcAhXIvRQKHeW2CewQFgh8MA0&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.britmodeller.com%2Fforums%2Findex.php%3F%2Ftopic%2F234986065-revell-1965-ford-mustang%2F&usg=AOvVaw23A8SlcekIQQb2BDMrigX_ Mike used a Torch Red from Zero Paints. Originally, the Mustang in 1965 could have 2 kinds of red color, the Rangoon one and the Poppy one (the Mustang of my fathers' friend is a Poppy Red version): I will have to choose the version and to try to get an authentic one, a first challenge... The Torch Red Mike used seems to correspond rather to the Rangoon Red. Very nice but I think I prefer the Poppy Red, kind of Coral color that I love...
