WILD MUSTANGS GROUP BUILD

[mrt51]

I like to suggest an aircraft group build.  "Wild Mustangs"  Build any p-51 mustang any scale.  It would run a year starting any time you guys say.

Hmm, I do have a Mustang in the stash, ya getting me interested. I've even got decent paint, Alclad. HA! After that I might be tempted to build my Bandi 1/24th Shiden.

Im interested, and would more than likely join if it were a year. I just started a new kit, and have one current group build but its 3 year GB so there is time open for another.

[kyledehart5]

Hmmm. I believe I have a Mustang floating around the stash.

[dupes]

I mean, obviously. Haha. In!

[tcoat]

I have been thinking of doing a before version of Gentile's Shangri La to go with my crashed one.

[mrt51]

Thanks for the interest. Maybe some time next year. We'll see what the authorities have to say about it

[kyledehart5]

I can’t speak for the plans of the forum other than the end date of the current group builds. But keavdog and myself are doing an automotive open wheel group build soon that’ll run for a year as well. We haven’t nailed anything down but I was sort of thinking back half of this year and front half of next year. But I haven’t heard of any other aircraft GB plans yet.  Seems to be some great interest for yours. Others probably know more but I imagine you’re pretty safe to fire yours up whenever you feel like putting it on!! I’ve checked my stash and I have an Accurate Miniatures Allison bird I’m itching to blow the dust off of. Looking forward to this one!  

[deafpanzer]

Definitely am interested but I'd rather to start in 2025 since I am already committed to three GBs this year. We need to build something to shoot those 190s down!!!

[robbo]

Some time next year and I could be tempted

What scale?  Their 1/48 P-51D can be found for < $30

[project510]

Oh I was looking at 1/32. I guess that's not the right scale for my price range. Sorry, I have never built a plane so I have no experience here haha. Looks like 1/48 is where I will be at!

Yeah, Tamiya's 1/32 aircraft kits are quite pricey. Most all of the same subjects made by other companies in 1/32 cost less... sometimes quite a bit so.

Did somebody say Mustang GB......I'll definitely build 1 or 7

[TJ]

If anyone has questions about Mustangs. I have a large file of info on pilots serial #s etc. Just let me know

  This sounds like a VERY cool idea Terry.   Dang near everybody loves a Mustang.

[tcoat]

Can't decide which scheme to use. Would do the Pinto but afraid it may burst into flames if I hit it from behind.

I think we can pretty much guarantee this is going to happen! Oh my...so many choices.

[Tojo72]

MOJO is waning a little bit at this time,got two semi stalled projects and no 51's in the stash.
So ,I'll have to see

I'm sure we could engineer a trade! I might have a couple of extras.

[keavdog]

And just ordered the Accurate Miniatures P-51 Allison powered 3 blade prop kit

[41chevy]

I know I have a Tamiya P51-B in the stash, so I'm in.
