Completed Firefighter Mustang II

[crispy]

This is the AMT Nostalgic series Firefighter Mustang II. Pretty basic little kit and was fun to build. I had some problems with the headers and the red plastic. The decals were a nightmare and they look ok. I'm not happy with them. I just wanted something to get me out of my rut and this did it.
Tamiya Bright Red and Tamiya Semi-Gloss black on the body. Metalizers throughout.
Here are the pics:

Good build. This is the first one of these I've seen built up since the re-issue.

That full body decal would definately be a challenge.

Looks like a fun way to blow out the cobwebs and get back to the bench!

Something tells me that thing will blow the doors off the bench, too ;)
