The reviews highlight a mix of experiences with the kit, noting its detailed components and variety of build options like stock or Cobra configurations, as well as wheel, tire, and engine choices. Some users found the build enjoyable and appreciated the clean design with minimal flash, while others encountered issues like warped parts requiring extra effort to assemble and inaccuracies in body shape, particularly with the windshield rake.
This kit has a fair amount of extras with wheel and tire options as well as engine options. The detail is to be expected for a tooling of this age. My largest complaint its the rake of the a-pillars/windshield is too severe. Once the kit is finished, it just doesn't look right. As long as AMT has been producing various 1st generation Mustangs in kit form, I would think that they could get the body shape much more accurate. It can be fixed with a fair amount of plastic surgery
This is a must kit. It was fun to build. Very detailed. You can choose from stock build or Cobra. I mixed in a little of both. It was a nice change from a 1/25 scale. The kit was very clean. No flash to speak of.
I've had the worst luck with models lately! This model has been a struggle to build because everything is warped. The windshield, one inner door panel, and both valences had a slight twist on them requiring heavy objects to be placed on them until the glue sets up. I gave it an average rating because I liked it, I just think that I got a bad one because nobody else had a similar complaint.
