Wow, beautiful Mustang, excelent nmf, gently weathered, superclean build. Could be very well 1/48. 👍

Hi Jeffrey Riedesel - the kit was gorgeous. lots of surface detail on exterior/interior. Parts were minimal and fit was perfect. decals are the better ones and in register. I used Revell Decal Soft for this project. only note I have is the flaps are all moulded on. But I guess at this scale? though it can be really nice if it had an option for a droop look. I had to cut it manually.

Nice looking model Danumurthi! Weathering is subtle and looks great!
