If it's anything like their 12th scale Boss 429 Mustang.......
and I believe it is; don;t bother with it, in looking at the site photos you can the rear taillight panel is a separate piece, ride height is too high and front end is not correctly shaped.

I won't be as "charitable" as David Carter. If it's anything like the Mustang it's total junk.
Instead of this piece of modeling embarrassment, you can spend about twice as much via eBay and get 100 times the model for a Franklin Mint version also in 1:12 scale.

Marlowe great pics but unless it's a problem with your model OR FM
