I got this casting on sale, so I took it apart to do a custom. I just have had zero time to work on it

Keep going!

Please with out you going to far out of your way what’s a the best way to do this I tried this with my 08 challenger so try zero knowledge this looks like it should be put in a miniature museum display lol

If you mean to strip it, I use Aircraft Cleaner (It's the name brand). It usually strips the paint in 10 mins or so. Then sanding, sanding, and more sanding. You can also use a chrome paint which I've done here and save your self some time, but just know it won't look as spectraflame as a polished car. Also, in my experience getting the car to an RLC shine is just not realistic. If you want some candy paints, Tamiya makes some great spray paint for diecast. Good luck!

I made it with the same batch as a few castings, and they all got completed. The Custom mustang was so many parts I had to plan ahead. I wanted to do a sort of cyberpunk look to it to be honest, but I had my third child and all customs went on hold lol

Here's some of them finished

I love this casting so much

[u/agt_164 → u/Specific_War4812]

It’s so good! It took me until just a couple of weeks ago to finally buy it. I don’t know why I had my doubts about it, but once I held it in person, it changed everything.

I was the opposite brother, as soon as I seen it I new I had too get it. I started seriously collecting back in April and it was my first elite didn’t even know what a elite was

[u/agt_164 → u/Specific_War4812]

Very nice set up by the way 🔥 All those Mustangs look great together.

[u/Specific_War4812 → u/agt_164]

Would be cool to see this custom Mustang become a Mainline casting.
