Mustang 1:64

[mpbsr]

Looking to make a 1:64 tribute of a Mach1 vert, but of course it doesn't exist.

Anyone know how easy or if even possible to remove the decals on one of these to be put on another 1:64?

You can make your own:

Using the instructions in the previously referenced videos and websites and the image below, you can make your own. If I recall correctly the decal images below are both 1/18th and 1/64th scale, but also depends on how you scale them when you print. It will take a few tries so start by using plain paper until you have them the way you want them.

The 1/18th scale hood patch because of it size is very hard, if not impossible, to work with when applying it.

How about the 73 Mach1 side stripes?

This is what I'm looking for....Would just need to paint the interior/cover black.

Also, looking to buy another 1:64 with a rear spoiler to add to mine.

I'll check to see if I have the 73 Mach stripe too.

I have the more squared off 71 Boss hood black out I'll check to see if I have the 73 Mach stripe too.

The Mustang in the link with the proper black stripe on the hood is orange. No good.

Actually, the car in the link is what Ford called 2B Bright Red, which in 73 was a fiery red color. I have convertible originally that color and never liked it, so I painted it Gold Glow.

Is is possible within reason to pull the grey interior and vert cover out of this

and replace it with this since they are both 1:64

The vert cover is part of the plastic interior piece. Yes you just have to drill out the two rivets at the front and back of the undercarriage. Then reassemble it and glue it in place of the rivets.
