You're right, it is a Ford. I didn't notice that the first time around.

Most excellent!

Great weathering! That frame looks amazing.

Thanks, guys. Hopefully get some more progress on it soon.

Interesting figure. Looking forward to your progress from "cloudy Poland".

Most decal makers steer clear of making anything associated with Caterpillar due to their very aggressive legal beagles. From what I hear, Cat is almost as bad as Harley-Davidson when it comes to copyrights.

Hmm, I'm going for a police car, so I don't think I'll be using leather! Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) was accidentally synthesized in 1872 in Germany. Plasticized PVC was created in 1927. How popular was it in the automotive industry in the 1940s? No idea.

Interesting. So the dash & upper part of the doors are the body color. On the tan interior, are the tan parts vinyl and the (well, I don't exactly know what color that is) parts fabric? That's what it sort of looks like.

Looking really nice. Hope to see it at Fulton.

That site is helpful.. Thanks.

Thanks. That music sure is annoying. Thank God for the mute button!

I recently started the AMT 1949 Mercury Club Coupe, and it's interesting to say the least. Despite the fact there is quite a bit of flash, it seems to be going together quite well (for an AMT kit). Anyway, the question I have has to do with the interior. I am making this car a police car, so I'm thinking a stock interior. Problem is I don't know what the stock interior looks like. Apparently this is a very popular car to customize, so most of the photos I've found are of custom rods. What would the stock interior look like? Would it be fabric or vinyl? Was the dash painted metal or some other material? Was tan an option in 1949? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Yup, that's short. Nicely done.

Nice clean build, Kevin. Well done.

Interesting tires, Dannyi. What would they be used for?

Your frame & suspension look awesome, Joe.

That looks great, Michael. Very well done.

Well, you don't see that every day here in the US. That's really cool.

Just here: http://apps.aitruckmodels.com/Gallery/ is all I know about.

Looks like Photobucket's being stupid again. Images are down on multiple sites.

Glad it all worked out. I have his Dodge Bighorn kit. Seems nice.

I have one of these kits in the stash as well, and it just begs to be build as Roadway. Seems like these Roadway C900 combinations were all over the place. Hey, as straight & level frame is half the battle with an AMT kit! One I frequently loose.

Thanks, Joe.

They are, but he might have some insight. Couldn't hurt, right?

Did you try contacting Dave Natale directly?
