I thought I would post my next build as a WIP as well. I have slowly been working on this one in the background while doing the Super Bee build. This is the old MPC tooling of the 1969 Mustang Mach 1. I realize that this kit is going to present me with a real challenge. I had built this kit a number of years ago and I can clearly remember the issues I had with it. Having said that. I have ...

I painted the body a week or so ago in frigid temperatures as I did with the Super Bee. I had to fill in two deep sink holes on the top of both fenders close to the front of the car. I rubbed the paint out with Nu Finish Scratch Doctor yesterday.
Sink holes filled in on top fenders close to front with Tamiya putty.

Looking good..I've built a few of that kit over the years, incl. that same issue in Wimbeldon White, like my 1:1 Sportsroof. The MPC '69 has some issues--seems underscale (about 1:26th or so), missing the quarter windows, C-pillar emblems, poor interior door panel details, and a poor 351 representation (looks like an underscale 289). The Revell '69 is nice overall, but they botched the ...

Well it has been quite some time since I posted anything on this build but now that my '70 Super Bee is completed I can get some work going on this Mustang. I think this is going to present me with more of a challenge than I first expected. The door panels inside the interior look more like a '67 to '68 Mustang. I guess I'll just have to build it that way since I don't have the correct interior ...

Thanks Mike. BMF'ing is not really my favourite part of the build either.....but has to be done I guess.
