I got the original run of this kit for Christmas when I was 14. I had already built the kit the year prior so I put it away thinking if I ever had a son or daughter, I'd build it with them. 23 yrs later and I just started working on it with my two oldest sons 😊
It's always fun to see which direction you take your builds as far as the paint job and the interiors. This kit was definitely a blast to put together, planning on picking up a couple more for the stash.
Great Job. The emerald paint job pops out. You have taught me the value of using spray paints I can find in my local stores rather than ordering more expensive hobby products...and they work just as good or better! Pre assembling parts and not being tied by the instructions order is educational too. I even broke down and ordered a testors paint set (something I haven't used in many years). Keep teaching
Nice..back in the day i owned a 68 Fastback,302 4spd.,4bbrl.,had turn signal lights built into the hood,Cbra-Jet valve covers,two-tone seats..It was my dream car!
I haven't built a model kit since I was a kid back in the late '60's but I've been binge watching your videos and you have inspired me to jump head long back into the hobby - I've order a number of vintage NASCAR kits. And, with a full scale 'Stang sitting in the garage, I'm gonna order this one as well. You sir are the Bob Ross of model building. Thank you!
@@hpiguy Yes, you are spot-on sir. I think you have developed exactly the right approach to model building. These things should be built in a weekend and not take weeks and months to complete. I think if a build takes too long, the fun factor is lost - perhaps this is true with all hobbies. I need to be mindful of this as I go forward. Thank you again and I'm looking forward to your next project and continuing to explore the other builds on your channel.
@@bamabiker750 Models should be built however the owner of the kit wants to build them is what I mean. If they have fun taking a year to create the most perfect factory replica, that's cool. What's not cool is demanding everyone else build to their standards. Everyone needs to enjoy their hobbies in their own way and let others do the same. Thanks for stopping by!
Hello, I just purchased this kit I love you're channel I watch you all the time and have gone back to watch videos of the models I have bought that you have built. Please keep up the great work.
You added some really nice details with this one, the wheels look factory correct for sure!!! The '67 and '68 Mustangs were just super boss with very clean and lean lines!!!
Growing up I kept all of the scraps as I would use it to build other things I especially loved it when models came with 2 different motors as I would use the motor for a custom build cars a made out of the scraps as I made a few different off-road dune buggy's
Chris - I would have posted this earlier, but you were pretty busy detail painting and I didn't want to interrupt. Oh, detail painting is what I wanted to tell you - this is one of your best to date. Thanks again for doing this.
I built the GT350 version of this many years ago, and that had a number of fit issues - this one seems a lot better in that regard and as always the end result looks great. I am a great lover of Mustangs so it looks like I'll be giving this more standard version another go if I can find it.
I've retired and began doing modeling again..Much more patient than I was at 12... vision and fingers are showing their age tho..I do Aircraft and Kreigsmarine models..I've amassed a collection of the cars I've owned..Chargers, Camaros, etc..the fit and finish seems better than in the 70s.
Very nice! Personally, I prefer to use a Molotow chrome pen for the chrome trim. It looks just like chrome and not just silver like the silver paint pens.
Gold pilot pens work good too, for chassis, engine detail as well as other parts. When you are finished with the pens clean them well, then wrap blue masking tape around the cap and the body of the pen. This helps so they don't dry out.
Great review and build. Thanks for getting back to me on type and brand of brushes you use be looking for some. The 67 looks like a great kit have to get one. Hey round 2 Chris is working hard for ya.peace
Splendid job Chris, beautiful paint colour, she looks awesome, Steve McQueen's machine. Keep em coming buddy you do some fabulous reviews/builds.......🇬🇧🤗
This kit and the 67 Shelby GT350 are similar to each other. With a few differences. With the Shelby I had a few fitment issues with the front and rear fascias, where I had to fill in. Other than it's a nice kit. I've built two lol. An 06 release plus the most release of the Shelby kit. One was show room new and the other a rusted out barn find lol. Probably pick this kit up at Hobby Lobby if they have it or at hobby shop an hours drive away from me lol.
Black for deep shadows and to darken the color coat over it. Grey for neutral uses. It won't darken or lighten the color above it, it just helps it bond better and the plastic color gets covered. White to lighten the color coat above it.
I ABSOLUTELY love your videos. Just subscribed. I learn many things many channels, but I love how you just show that building models should be completely personal and done for ourselves not trying to make high competition models every time. Question, do you clear coat over your decals, then put that polish on? Or clear coat, decals then polish over all? What is your order for that? .
I'm no rivet counter, but you got the distributor too far advanced. That motors never gonna start. LOL! Nice build! My brother had a 67 stang, It was a notch back not a fastback like this one. 390 4 speed. It was a fun car!

Lucky you for your kids, and for the model/car.

I building this now. Thank you for all the tips etc.👍…….AND Remember….. YOU KEEP BUILDING THEM AND I WILL KEEP WATCHING. 👍🇨🇦😸.
Awesome! Thank you!
It's always fun to see which direction you take your builds as far as the paint job and the interiors. This kit was definitely a blast to put together, planning on picking up a couple more for the stash.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just noticed that it seems like we both went without the interior rear view mirror, should we chalk that one up to great minds thinking alike?😃

Thanks for stopping by!
We had a 69 Mustang 428 CObra Jet with 4.11's, A1 torque converter. It was a monster. Miss that car!
The 67 is such a legendary design of any car, ever

Remember the most important rule with your hobby, HAVE FUN!!
The rest will come as you build more. :)

If you had put in the description box a link on amazon or ebay of all the tools and sprays you used it would have been very useful for all of us!
Awesome Job Chris! I just bought mine today! I can't wait to build it! I also still have my Shelby GT 350! That came out a couple of years ago!

Do you have any suggestions on how to fit the front cowl? Also, what's the best way to paint the two grille inserts in the front cowl?
Great kit , great work as always.
Mustang came out awesome.
SOO KOOOOOLLLL.

Glad you like them!
Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much Chris!
Thanks for stopping by!
just watched this 1. Great build !!!. what color did u use on the steering wheel ?
How did you decide when to use gray primer and when to use black primer? Just curious. Thanks!
Black for deep shadows and to darken the color coat over it.
Grey for neutral uses. It won't darken or lighten the color above it, it just helps it bond better and the plastic color gets covered.
White to lighten the color coat above it.
I ABSOLUTELY love your videos. Just subscribed. I learn many things many channels, but I love how you just show that building models should be completely personal and done for ourselves not trying to make high competition models every
time. Question, do you clear coat over your decals, then put that polish on? Or clear coat, decals then polish over all? What is your order for that? .
I'll have to make a run to Hobby Lobby & pick up this kit & Make myself a Steve McQueen’s Movie car ‘Bullitt’ .
Thanks and Happy New Year to you!
@@hpiguy You do the same & Ty
Super video, wonderful finish!
Thank you! Cheers!
Mustang looks great!

I wish Danbury mint and Franklin mint made diecast car model kits with the spring suspension

Hahaha, fun times!!
Another awesome build and video. Chris you really can nail the colors on all your builds, I don't know how you do it, but you nail it every time.
Thanks a bunch!
Getting 3 to make drag cars and way better Shelby GTs with than what's been previously available
Enjoy!
Come up beautiful mate ☺️👍
Thanks a bunch!
Good job on the Mustang. If this was a real car it would be ready to get top dollar at one of the auctions.
Thanks a lot!
So nice looks great!
Thank you! Cheers!
Period perfection Chris, really digging the color choices! Very well done!!
Thanks for stopping by!
I'm ready to jump in it and take off.
