Mach1revo Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Here are some pics of my Revell 49 Merc. I removed the drip rails and added some trim with some .060 half round. I also made a front roll pan. The paint is duplicolor perfect match stellar blue pearl and artic white covered with duplicolor clear all from the spray can. I have wired the engine and given it a black wash. I may do fuel lines and throttle linkage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mach1revo Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Almost done. I removed the molded in battery for a smoother underhood. I also replaced the molded cable on the drivers side with a piece of wire and BMF clamps. Also did BMF clamps on the radiator hose. I made grab handle for the seat backs out of half round styrene flattened on each end. Thanks for looking. All comments welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
