I can't wait to get a few myself!

VERY cool!

I hope you slam it like in the mockup,looks killer that low

Looks like a survivor built long ago (NOT that it looks old,just that) so I'd say you hit the nail on the head getting a period look to it,nicely done! Cool back story about your Dad too,awesome

Fugly (the one a few posts up is too)

Nice build of an old favorite of mine! I built one (not nearly as nicely done) way back in the early 90's,and an earlier version of the kit (pre-GTA,same basic Monogram kit I think) a bit better (than my GTA,not better than yours),a replica of a '86 TA I used to have. MAN thank you for the memories of that car!

Very nicely done!

LOVE it,nicely done

Wow... :D

We had an '86 SM6 I think it was,had the 2.8L/5sd back in the day,fun little car (what it lacked down the straights,it made up for in the curves) . I;ve seen V8 conversions for sale in the kit car mags,alwas thought that would be killer. This is gunna be sweet!

Off to an awesome start!

Nice build,looks great

LOL,I feel ya! I raced nitros back in the late 90's,started getting back into RC a month ago,have the 2 crawlers (I run em on mtn bike trails mostly),a pair of budget offroaders for the pair of kids (ECX Boost buggy and Torment SCT) and I've just started racing again,electric SCT (Short Course Trucks for those that don't know) with a pair of Team Associated SC10's,a 4wd and 2wd....EASY to get hooked on the hobby (especially around tax refund season That's all the hijacking I'll do,though,looking forward to seeing more of the Olds

LOVING the Olds build (LOTS!),but seeing those Axials in your workshop got me all excited (I have a Ridgecrest and SCX10 Jeep Rubicon)

OMG that thing's awesome!

Cool,nicely done!

LOVE it!!!

Cool project!

LOVING the look already

Engine looks great,body smooth! The last one I built,I stopped right there on paint,mate black (using the flame decals),LOL! I've built 2 or 3,the one on the bench now is stalled a bit,but I hae a good excuse

Well,I would say "build" cause I'm not a collector,but I haven't built much these last 2 years since the house burnt/we moved,so I guess "keep until I build"

As a cyclist, have to say "Why NOT Portlandia???",LOL! Hey,good luck with the move,my friend,Portland's a nice place,been there a few times in my trucking days,wouldn't mind goin back someday (without a CDL/rig to drive,I doubts it though,LOL! )

Smooooth!!!

My bench looks exatcly the same as it did last week last since I haven't been at it all week,but I'll be at it later this eve,hopefully can get some pics

There cannot ever be too many '49 Mercs built,my friend (have another on my bench as well ),this will be kool!
