I've been thinking about buying a few of these kits on ebay (USA only sellers), but I don't know anything about the kit itself. I did several Google searches and I couldn't' find any in depth reviews, let alone a build or two.
So what do you guys think of the kit? How accurate and detailed is it?
Thanks,
Joel

Joel, this series of kit are not bad considering what was available back in the late 80's, I have used 2 or 3 on my hi-detail project on it. mostly due to warped body/chassis parts. I did build a out of the box kit just to get the feel for the kit, in the nd it came out nice but the body didnt fit to my standards.Over all I have to say they are good kits and with some patience they can be be a good looking model.. link to the project.. it was put on hold after about 13 months of making parts, note 2 bodies.. couldnt decide!! public.fotki.com/pmodwrks/model-cars/imsa-mustang-project/ Chris |

Chris & Bill,
I just checked out both of your builds, and I'm just blown away. The level of detail is way beyond what my expectations would be. Mostly OOB with some detailing, just like all my other builds. Only my Porsche 956 is what I'd even consider a fair amount of detailing. But that's how I build these days.
I'm not one to buy a lot of After Market, as I'm on a retired modeler's budget these days. That's why I asked about the detail and fit of the kit. From their I'll add as my skill set will allow, which is no where near either of yours. I'm almost ashamed to post my work after seeing what you guys have achieved.
Joel

Bill,
Thanks for the info and the link. I fear that even if I could locate one of these trans kits, that's it's way out of my price range.
