....what's the skinny on the Salvino Mustang kits? Worth the money, not worth the money? I know I said recently I wasn't giving them more of my money, but the Camaros seemed decent enough.....asking for a Friend.   |

| The mustang is pretty much the same kit with a different body/ducts to the hood/any other "Ford" specific parts(same as the real racecar). |

Well, the engine is totally different between a 1::1 Cup Chevy and Cup Ford. Not so in the kit, as you noted.

I just meant that the kit pretty much will build the same as the Camaros will with the exception of the Ford specific parts in the kit |

Found an interesting change to the tires of the 2023 Mustang (Blaney kit): they are grooved for the rear piece of rim thus making it easier to glue outer spokes in place, i.e. no slippage.
Upper roll cage sides reshaped too. |

Is the Blaney kit molded in a true Menard's chartreuse/flo. yellow, or more of a generic yellow?
Thanks.

Would a Ford engine be asking too much?
