AMT Round 2 1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback 1:25 Scale Model Kit, Chrome (AMT1241)

I purchased this for my neighbour as a gift for her grandson. He has not received the gift yet so I can not comment. It arrived in perfect condition.

This kit can make a beautiful model car. But that’s only if you’re ready to put maximum effort into building it, or you’re a master model maker. The fit up on the front and rear pieces is nowhere close to the body contour. It would literally take putty and sculpting to make the front and rear pieces appear to lineup. I’d also like to note that there are very few connection points. The directions simply say to place a part in a certain area with no guidelines no pins or slots or tabs to keep things in place or to locate things. With this model, you are definitely on your own. I had to go online and watch several YouTube videos just to see how I could make this come out the best that I could. Definitely not a model for beginners or people who don’t want to spend a lot of time and effort on trimming sanding And possibly using body molding to make this come out properly. I was still able to make a great looking model, but it was an ordeal. Several other comments have said the same same thing and I agree with with all of them. Lots of flash, lots of bad fit up. And to add to that a large section of plastic needs to be physically removed from the body just so that you can put the trunk lid in that spot. It took me hours to remove that. Just so you know what you’re getting into if you buy this model.

I was really looking forward to building this 1:25 scale model of the classic 1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback, but unfortunately, the kit arrived missing several key components that seriously impacted the experience — enough that I have to give it 3 stars. The model itself seems nicely molded, and the chrome details look great, but the biggest issue is what wasn’t in the box: there was no paint, no glue, and — most surprisingly — no instruction manual at all. For a model kit at this price, especially from a brand with a reputation like AMT Round 2, that’s very disappointing. I understand that many model kits don’t include paint or glue, and that’s fine if it’s clearly stated and expected. But not including a manual? That makes the build much harder, especially for those who aren’t experienced modelers. Without a guide, you’re left guessing at the order of assembly, paint suggestions, decal placement, and part numbers — which takes the fun out of what should be an enjoyable project. This kit could have been excellent if better prepared for the customer. If you’re a seasoned builder who’s comfortable figuring things out or sourcing everything yourself, it might still be worth it. But for casual hobbyists, younger builders, or anyone who expects a complete and guided experience out of the box, this version of the kit may be frustrating. In short: beautiful car, decent parts, but poorly packaged and incomplete. A disappointing start to what should have been a fun build.

Awesome product

This is a pretty decent kit. I built this as the car from the movie Bullitt. The movie car was a '68, and this kit is a '67, so some differences. I used wheels from another kit to complete the look. Overall, I'm happy with the kit
