Ford Mustang Monte Carlo 1966 #145 by Arena
We saw the first Monte Carlo Mustang kits from Arena some four years ago now and here we have another Ford France entry from the event, this one driven by Maurice Trintignant. The basic shape of the car looks good but the panel engraving, though narrow and deep, is rather wobbly on our kit and you may wish to adjust this slightly. Most unusual for Arena as their castings are usually very crisp. The remaining kit parts are the usual mix of well cast resin for the larger parts and some excellent photo-etch which includes an optional roofrack to carry a spare wheel.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
