I originally built this kit when it was initially issued as the “Pace Car” kit, and have fond recollections doing so. I built and painted it in the same color scheme as my best friend’s ’67 ragtop which he bought and restored to health back in the 70s. There were many memories in that car, and unfortunately I was forced to sell my ’69 model due to financial difficulties some years ago. Needless to say I was excited to have the opportunity to replicate this ’69 in the same color scheme.

For the Modeler: Aside from a decal issue with the hood stripes prevented me from “replicating” my buddy’s ’67 convertible, and fit issue with the exhaust header/pipes, I found no major fit or finish problems with this kit. Although it’s not the “perfect build” per se, it comes VERY close, and I enjoyed building it very much. Therefore, I give this kit an easy…and I mean EASY 4 1/2 stars. I highly recommend this kit to intermediate (like me) and advanced modelers looking for a trouble-free building experience of a classic subject. Would I build this kit again? In a “heartbeat of America” I would! ;c)
