• Got the new John Wick '69 Mustang from Spotlight today. What's in the box......
  • May lead to another Mustang kit I consulted with R2 years ago...... *NM*
  • I had the ‘80’s MPC release. I think the straight axle was there, but my 12 year old 80’s kid brain didn’t know what they were (or didn’t care). Now, it’s super useful!!! *NM*
  • Mine arrived today to. I noticed there is a rocker panel stripe decal with the Boss 429 callout, but the included engines are a Windsor Small Block or an FE 428 *NM*
  • Some more detail on the body differences here... *LINK* *PIC*
    • oops, wrong link... *LINK*
  • The "Gasser" front suspension is actually a carry-over from the original "annual" kit. The gates were opened for the noughties' "Resto Rods" reissue. *NM*
    • While far from 'accurate,' that chassis will slide under the AMT '66s with very little effort
      • That chassis originated with MPC's '66 fastback...
        • I recall a few Car Model mag "reader rides" from the day and the raised axle Mustangs made regular appearances - and if my boi Nick "ZMan" is reading...
          • Duh, it's late ... the point was the threw an MPC chassis under an AMT coupe and it really worked out nicely *NM*
