What a great ride it's been to build this puppy, just what I needed after the Blue Super Seven. I actually thought it would easier than it turned out to be, just build it out of the box and all will build nicely... I now realize what a foolish perspective that was!
I am very surprised I was able build this thing in less than seven weeks, (actually it was closer to five weeks working time...) but then again, it is just out of the box. It's not that I was rushing, more like relishing the build.
To anyone else who has a Pocher kit and is contemplating building it, I say go for it. They can be very frustrating in a few areas, but the reward is worth it. Just don't set your vision of the outcome higher than what the kit can reasonably build.







I have to publicly thank my friend David Morton for providing me with this kit. He was kind enough to show off it's size. I think he's even happier about it being finished than me!

No doors...no 2 spare tires...no leather interior upholstery.

Mark,

Gorgeous build as expected! You don't see these Pocher kits built often as they are quite intimidating. You did a great job especially while staying as close as possible to the original intention of as much box stock as possible.
Bravo!

Thanks,

Absolutely Stunning Mark! I'm also jealous because I could never get the Pocher Mercedes I have done that quickly! 8)

Yes, you both are, I suggest you take it up with him though... Think you're cute enough for him?

This is going to have to be a battle to the death. He and Mark are already having an affair. David said he loved me, so I'm a little upset that he went behind my back. Now Gregg wants him...

Next, Bob D is going to want him...you know why Gregg? Because remember what kind of whistles he likes.
