Another one of my 1:48 builds from the early '80s. Like many of my models back then, the photos taken on my film camera back then have been lost, but the models have survived. Finally took them out of the display case, dusted them off, and updated my photo albums.

Bozzer
Them decals are sending me dizzy! Best of luck with those mate.

Bob Hall
Luckily they are pre-cut and some sort of dry rub transfer style. A first for me and seeing as they are 40 plus years old, finge red s crossed they still work out right !

Bozzer
That kinda reminds me of the old Letraset transfers? Mate, I've just had a mind blast of Remus and The Black Hole movie, and rubbing those decals on anything that didn't move! It's definitely time for a beer!

Nigel Chapman
Interesting project. Can't say I have even seen this kit. Rub down Transfers can get brittle with age. Is it worth getting them reprinted?

Bozzer
@ Nigel. Oddly enough, I mentioned you in another thread today, and like a Genie, here you are? Check out the Duesenberg thread, a good few below this? The guy is making a cracking job of it 👍

Nigel Chapman
Will do

Nigel Chapman
@Bozzer cannot find the thread for Duesenberg.
@Bob is the Mustang based on real car?

Bob Hall
Not Sure, but Burris made some of the most famous mod customs of the 60's and 70's. I know he made a pair of custom Mustangs for Sonny &Cher back in the mid sixty's.en.wikipedia.org/wik..ris_(auto_customizer)

Watchin……… where my beer at?

Munkyslut
Barris handled dozens of one -off custom orders for many celebrities, he knew em all & he had the best designers & fabricators in the business 👌👌
I reckon I've got an old book of all his celeb cars & bikes somewhere….

Bob Hall
As you can see by most of my builds are not the box art type, but this Burris kit w as s way to eye catching to pass up !

Bozzer
@Bob. That Barris link, was very interesting, thanks for the heads up.

Nigel Chapman
Hey Bozzer checkout the official site at www.barris.com it's worth a look

Sonny and Cher Barris Mustangs.

Bozzer
I've seen Motortrend many times, when I've been in the states. Obviously, we don't get it over here in the UK, on regular TV, but I never thought of looking for it, online? DOH!!!
Some awesome stuff on those two links, thank you, fellas!
All this eye candy, is gonna have me building cars soon! 🙂

Bob Hall
OK, status up date. 44 year old rub on dry transfer decals are D.O.A. on their own, BUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! One rolling blade exacto knife, some clear Elmer's school glue, a sewing needle and my Army Sniper type patience and all is saved. Now just have to dig out some Pony and 289 fender decals and do some chrome time and we will be cooking with napalm 🔥 !

Munkyslut
Hahaha Bobs bar-b-q's must be epic 🔥🔥🔥😂

Jv
Very cool

Bob Hall
DONE !

Dave
Nice

Bob Hall
Sweet !

Dave
Nice work

Ben M
Are the 3d printed parts aftermarket or part of the kit?

Marek Valko
No, I designed them by myself

Ben M
That's great!

Christian
Looks pretty amazing!

Kendrick Brown
Excited to see the updates! You'll have the first 1/48 Romeo I've seen!
