1965 Mustang model kit

 

 

This is an AMT 1/16 scale 1965 / 1966 Ford Mustang kit. It is a fair kit, but there were a few things I did not like about it. It comes with two kinds of tires, an old style bias-ply tire looking set and a more modern performance tire set.

The nice cragar rims are sized wrong for the front, so they only will fit the bias ply tire. This means you have to mismatch the tires, which is ok if you go for the street drag racing stance that I did.

The rear comes with a choice of leaf springs , stock or the ones I used to raise the rear slightly for that aggressive (though a bit redneck) stance. The engine is detailed some. Another downside for this kit is is has a metal axle that goes right through the engine.

The kit comes with an optional Cobra style air cleaner and valve covers, which I used. The hood is removable, and the doors open (I glued them shut). This kit had good chrome, especially on the wheels.
