I have started working on the 1/12 Revell Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 . This kit is huge and the details are nice. Here are shots of my completed interior.

That's a beauty! I mistook your interior pics to be a 1/1 car at first. :thumbsup:

Very nice job - love the painting on this. Is that white tape on the seats?

Awesome job with the detail work!! I'm only good at doing that stuff on the real things...My scale painting skills suck, but at least I'm good with a rattle can on real steel!

Looking sharp so far. What shade of blue is that? I bought a can of Icy blue & it looks very close to what it is. Detailing is very nice.

Hey Jaws,
Mustang is looking very nice so far. Did you have any problem with putting the tires & rims together? I think its strange how they go together. I cant wait to see the model all finished.

Ya it was a little effort. I glued the chrome rim and back piece together , and pushed the whole assembly in from the back of the tire.

Thanks. I havent seen many kits that have a wierd tire/rim assembly. I like the way your mustang is turning out.

I didnt use the stripes. I also heard they were alittle brittle. If you want mine, you're welcome to them. I have no use for them.
My mustang is painted gloss black with ghost stripes. If I can send pics I will. Hope the body turned out nice.

I apprecite that, but I used mine. Pics will post tonigt. Very thin and brittle. Came out good for the most part. The roof had a rip, so I added spare and it came out a little thick. On the back the 2 stripes that go around the licence plate tore, so I took them off. It doesnt look bad without them.
