  1. from one of the issues of it.
  2. Can be built up nicely. It is not that bad like the Lindbergh kit!!!! That is actually a 69 body.... sorta. Is a bit of a let down not to have the factory decals
  3. Love that kit (and car)
  4. Great Job!
  5. Great conversion!
  6. Looks great, Been wanting one but will get the Revellogram kit and cross my fingers there are no corrections to be made on the body. My first car was a 48 Ford Super Deluxe Coupe
  7. Maybe I'll install a Boss 429 in it..... Hahahaha. Actually it is going to a gift to my 14 yo daughter. She thinks Smart cars are hysterical and will love building it
  8. Never saw one before, and for 8 bucks.... what the heck
  9. AWESOME
  10. Are those peal and stick AND water slide decals?
  11. Resins have their place, but not with me. LOL. The Merc body shows it's die cast origins badly. The sides are too flat, roof is too flat, and the windshield does not have enough "V" in the middle. I got disgusted with trying to correct it and cut it up. The headlight bezels were okay, and the 1/4 windows were nice. The rest of the body went to the trash. I used the good stuff on the AMT kit and took me less time to do the initial top chop than trying to round the body sides of the Revell to look un-toy-like.
  12. Just add the pic off your hard drive when posting (choose files tab) The body of that kit is just that, a caricature

    49 Mercury

    One of the best looking builds of that kit I have seen. Excellent!
  14. Its looking really good. Love the color combo. The kit looks better than the awful chopped coupe, I just cannot get past the windshield on it.
  15. I hope R2 releases the 64.... I missed my chance at one
  16. That is AWESOME!!!!! So glad you take the time to get it right!
  17. Here are my thoughts of what we may see in the near future. Revell - Model A sedan, 57 Ranchero, tri-five Nomad, Pro stock Camaro. Round 2 - 57 Chevy flipnose, AWB Comet, 63 Impala, Cougar funny car.
  18. I sure like it
  19. I disagree........ I had a damaged window, actually more than one. 400 grit, 600, 1000, 1500, polish. Worked for a one with glue on it too
  20. Wow.... that looks like a real piece of BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH!............... in a good way
  21. Those are some funky tie rods....... hahahah The only thing I see off is the passenger side fuel cap. Great looking so far
  22. Would love to see Revell do this car and maybe a 74-76 Cougar. They have the basics
