One of the most beautiful and 99.99% perfect 69 Boss 302 Mustang castings I have seen.

Once I set it free and drove it to Mel's Drive In for a cheese burger, fries, and a cherry Coke, and to show off a little

Then I noticed it had been hit in the rear and bent the rear bumper.

Then I drove it to the shop for repair. It was a quick fix and even at "NO CHARGE".

Rolled out as good as new.

It was a simple fix.

Good looking 1/64th 'Stang Steve. Your service crew did a great job on the bumper!

I haven't seen that Mustang before.  It looks nice and your photos are great. I have 39 Mints and noticed not one Mustang.  Will have to look for it.

I was at Hobby Lobby today and saw a Racing Champions Mint 1997 Mustang. I have several Racing Champions models, and these are the first Mustangs I have seen.

I do not think I purchased any diecast from Hobby Lobby and very few from Target, which is nearby. However, it is a good place to see the models for possible purchase some place else. If I had not seen that Mustang, I probably would have bought it from Diecastdirect or other on-line seller. I am glad I saw it there.

I still buy most of my 1/64 from Hobby Lobby and Walmart. I used to buy more from HL when they had they had the weekly 40% off coupon. I prefer to see what I am buying personally.  Sometimes things don't look as nice  in your hand.
