Hot Rod North American P-51D Mustang fighter

This is a personal version of what would be for me the hot rod version of North American Aviation P-51 Mustang trying to include details of classic American cars of the 40´s.

Here is the story of this iconic fighter plane:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North\_American\_P-51\_Mustang

I recommend you print it with your favorite colors!!!

It is a model that requires a little more time than a single print piece but in my opinion the result is spectacular.
I hope you like it as much as I do and that you enjoy its printing and assembly.
I have tried to simplify the design of the pieces to facilitate their printing and assembly.
In total there are 33 pieces.

The terrible video of the assembly!!... although it is quite simple and intuitive.
