Revell's 1:18 scale teal 1965 Ford Mustang convertible, hurting very much since 2004.

Yes, many Revell 'Stangs don't hold up. These are great examples of crap-zinc!

Oh my gosh, that's a real shame ! Those Mustangs have really suffered from zinc corrosion but perhaps may work well in a junkyard diorama.

Wow ! I never had a problem with mine. Sadly though I sold them all.

The Poppy Red cnvrt was my favorite. I detailed it out to the max. Wish I had taken pics.

Accurately looks like most 1:1 Rustang II's around these parts. If you can find one..
