RDean58 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 I found out that the interior and frame from the AMT 66 Mercury will fit, so I don't have to try and clean up the old stuff. I think the color will be a turquoise, kind of like the drawing on the box cover. The first pictures were taken right after it came out of the purple pond, cleaned up really well. I noticed some body damage on the drivers side I'll have to fix. The next few pictures are with the new parts taped on. I was able to remove all the old pieces except for the hood scoop, I'll just have to live with the one that is on there. New front pan and grill section New chrome roof bar and rear window extension. The skirts are from the AMT 64 Mercury Marauder kit while the wire wheels are from the 65 Lincoln convertible kit. I don't like how it looks without the skirts. Thanks for looking!

Modlbldr Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Going to be an interesting build. I like the wore wheels and I agree that it looks better with the skirts. Perhaps some chrome inserts in the holes on the hood scoop. Something similar to the chrome inserts on a 68-69 Camaro. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
