The model comes molded in white, clear and chrome plastic parts. You'll need to sand and cut some pieces to make them fit perfectly, but even if you don't have (or don't want to) spend a lot of time building, you will have a fairly good model. The recommended paint scheme is fairly simple, although you will need 10-15 colours, almost all of which can be used for other models because this one requires only touch ups with almost every colour (eg one stroke with transparent orange and transparent red for the taillights and turn signals). Revell produced this model several years ago, and their more recent models are much better in quality and provide more decals for the interior. Also, the body colour as recommended (poppy red) will be hard to find (since it's no longer produced) if you are looking to paint it as on the box. All in all, a great stock muscle car that's better than the '64 stock mustang, but not as good as Revell's currently produced '07242 Shelby Mustang GT 350 H'.

This is an amazing model for anyone who loves old, "American-Muscle". THIS IS NOT A TOY! This car breaks extremely easily, its plastic is about as thick as a CD case (on most of the body). Also you will need a lot of materials before you buy it. It doesn't come with anything but white, and chrome pieces. You'll NEED AT THE VERY LEAST paint, and model cement/hot glue. Over all, for the price, this is a great model to keep on your shelf and admire, but do not buy this for anyone under 13 (A LOT OF PARTS!), but as a Mustang enthusiast, I give it a thumbs up!
