Here's a good collection of Mustang model kits...too bad they're all discontinued.

Anybody have any updates? I just got back from a week in Arizona so I haven't checked the boards.

2/28 update
-Body finally stipped down to plastic and body work removed for a fresh start, primed grey to look for imperfections, sanded with 1000, 2000, primed white, sanded and ready for paint...which color?

-Suspension is cut apart and ready for me add blocks in the rear to lower, not sure how I am going to tackle the front end, I might cheat and just cut and mount the spindles a little higher.

-RS Watanabe wheels sprayed silver, need to be clear coated.

-Interior is painted and flocked. I just need to put the seats in and the dash. Rear seat delete plate made and flocked.

Looks great guys, makes me want to start one... Might swing by a hobby shop today or this weekend. The rooms almost done, so I might have a little free time.

I'm sort of screwed on mine. My body is painted and 99% finished even after having to restrip the paint and respray it, but my windows are totally ruined. They came out of the box with scuffs all over them and then i went to paint the tint around the edges and it turned out like complete crap, so basically i need new windows now.

Oh i forgot to show you guys my lot of old models i got from a local guy. I got 3 old '50s Vettes (kinda crap, mainly for random spare parts), a Fiero (total crap), a Days of Thunder Lumina stock car which is pretty cool, a Regal GNX which is sweet and a Back To The Future Delorian!
