Boyz keep building the T/A fleet for summer racing in Dundee!

This one will have a Pioneer chassis and motor combo.

Boyz are liking the look, but a little concerned how those stripes are going to lay down in the end!!

Will have to check out some actual cars on Google, the kit is a Revell 68 Mustang Snap-together kit, and other thoughts from the Mustang experts??

SpeedyNH is right, 67s had the "gills" in the cove and the 68s had a vertical , chrome bar. Also, as mentioned, 67s didn't have sidemarkers, 68s did and "Mustang" under the horse emblem on the side was in block letters on the 67s and script on the 68s. I owned a 68 hardtop and friend had a 67 at the same time so comparisons were inevitable. Still looks cool regardless!

I cannot be bothered whether it is a '67 or '68, all I know is that it is a very beautiful 60's Mustang. At 200+ scale mph down the main straight the differences cannot even be seen!

I will (reluctantly) await for the final result ...

Dundee Denny, another great looking build. You and the fellas do fine work. 67 or 68, it will blow the doors off of any old Camero. Who ever is driving it won't care a hoot about the year. They will be just laughin their buns off. :o Regards, John
