Flatout Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Revell's 49 Merc almost "out the box"...added plug wires, upholstery piping, and lowered the stance. The paint is House of Kolor Candy Tangerine dusted with a couple of coats of copper pearl then a couple of coats of urethane clear after the decals were applied. Except for the stance being too high the kit went together without any problems. Thanks for lookin', Aloha...Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTallDad Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 What an extremely clean build! Excellent paint, decal, and BMF! I'm not sure I like the orange plug wires...maybe they'll grow on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

randyc Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I don't care what the complaints are against this body, these are among my favorites (it is a CUSTOM after all). This looks great - love the color. And the flames. And well, all of it! Nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Randy...for all the things that are "wrong" with the shape of this kit's body the finished product looks pretty cool sitting on the shelf? Thanks to all for the great feedback/comments!!!

Jantrix Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Outstanding work. I've seen more nearly-out-of-box builds of this kit than any other I can think of. Which is testament to a great kit I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
