Hi Kevin,


I’ve alway enjoyed your plastic models :-)) 


Question, do you know of any 1/12 scale modern Mustang car kits ?

I found something better to power the GT40 than some marker pens and some plumbing spares.

Here's a quick mock up ( I'm thinking of using some led's and have it hovering)







Can't decide on colour gold, blue or pink.
