This came out so good. I'm jealousy about your fricking awesome clear coats.
The color of the interior looks pretty good instead of black as usual.

That blue is much better than the yellow on the box art. Is that an original Ford colour?

Thank you very much for your kind words. I was busy and missed m own theme 😉
First, i would build a lime-green with tan interior....after the interior was ready, i dived into the history...i decided to change the body color.
@Nigel, the color is from my stash and is really close to the acapulco blue. my example was this GT500:

@Yngve, i used Vallejo model air Nr. 71107 US Interior Yellow. similar to the linked above, it is to tan, should be more white. But i llike it the way it looks with the body color

Loooong time i searched for the 69 Shelby from Revell. As convertible and Coupe i had success - and never opened the original wrapped boxes.
After the new issue from Revell was launched i was luck enough to get one.
While looking on it and saw the different year - now a `70s Shelby - i was interested and the time was right, to build it for my Mustang collection. That means, i have not to touch my two other kits 🙂
The build was without hard problems. only the hoodhiges had to thinned out, that the hood closes propertly.

i know, it is not period correct with the interior, but so what? I can live with it :-D
