When the Revell 69 Boss 302 came out, I'll admit, I only wanted the car to see the difference in the front clips. I still had a 69 from the mustang 3 pack I bought 20+ years ago to compare it too. Unfortunately when it arrived, I tossed the new kit in the stash with the rest and forgot all about it.. Mustangs, although I do kinda like a few, really aren't my thing... So yesterday, I decided to watch a movie that I had never seen before... John Wick... It had been recommended to me by sister... hoowee... what a good flick. All the action needed. A little taste of comedic relief. And a story to follow along... And in this movie was a mustang that really jumped out at me. So I raced into the dungeon and searched the stash... Found the Boss and have finally found the Mach 1. And so begins my next Hollywood star car..
This is where we sit so far... Been gluing, cutting, scraping and sanding all day... We have the old mustang kit body. I've added the nose and hood from the Boss kit. And also a scoop from the Revell 68 Mustang kit (not yet attached). I have also added some evergreen strips below the doors...
More John Wick to come...

This.....is gonna be good!!! Man I hope so...
Here's where we are so far.
Got the first coat of primer sprayed and the wet sanded. Then wouldn't you know it, I found a couple spot that I needed to clean up. With the primer, it's kinda starting to look the part.

Thanks folks, I do appreciate it! What color did you use, Jeremy? Looks good! Thanks Mike!
My original intention was to use Tamiya Gunmetal. It looks the part, but I decided at the last minute to use Testors Graphite Dust from the Extreme Lacquer line. Wanted a little flake on it.

Perfect paint Jeremy. Looking forward to those stripes. I'm a little hesitant to add them now that the gray came out so good  |
