Model Overview & Print Notes

This is a sweet 1969 Ford Mustang 350 GT for your Hot Wheels collection.  It's an even simpler process to finish this car than my other Hot Wheels models are.  My other vehicles have a chassis that are printed separately and then glued onto the bodies.  This one has no separate chassis, so the wheels and axles are put directly into the body of the car (after the paint job).

    The axles are made out of a straightened paperclip and superglued into the wheels.  When glueing the second wheel on, I advise holding the wheels in between the thumb and index finger.  That allows the body of the car to swing, ensuring that the superglue doesn't bond your wheels directly to the body.  If that happens, the car is still useful for a display model or for Gaslands, just not as a drivable Hot Wheels.

    I tried using a primer for the first time on these models, and as you can see in the yellow car, it definitely made the surface smoother.  I should've done more sanding, to get it even smoother, but it's too late for that.  I used regular acrylic paint, and I want to make a comment on another technique I've previously tried.  I've mentioned before that I used a black BIC marker.  I've since discovered that those specific markers run terribly when you clear coat them.  Thus, I've simply returned to black acrylic paint for the black details, and the silver details were done with a silver Sharpie.  Once those were done, I hit it with a coat of high gloss clear coat.  (For whatever reason the Sharpies don't seem to run)

Happy printing y'all! Please post any makes and remixes! I really appreciate it!

EDIT 1.0

The original model that i remixed was labelled as a 1969 Mustang, but I (obviously not an intense mustang enthousiast) have been informed that is incorrect and it is actually an earlier model, 1964-66.
