Flatout Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Revell's 49 Merc almost "out the box"...added plug wires, upholstery piping, and lowered the stance. The paint is House of Kolor Candy Tangerine dusted with a couple of coats of copper pearl then a couple of coats of urethane clear after the decals were applied. Except for the stance being too high the kit went together without any problems. Thanks for lookin', Aloha...Pete
BigTallDad Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 What an extremely clean build! Excellent paint, decal, and BMF! I'm not sure I like the orange plug wires...maybe they'll grow on me.
David G. Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Absolutely Amazing! Everything looks perfect! David G.

Ace-Garageguy Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Clean, clean, clean. Beautiful paint and foil work, everything fits right. It just doesn't get much better than this. Absolutely top marks.
stavanzer Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Where'd you get the shrink ray? Awesome, looks like what you'd see at a car show in Los Angeles.

Dave42 Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Excellent work as always Pete. Great looking build.
randyc Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 I don't care what the complaints are against this body, these are among my favorites (it is a CUSTOM after all). This looks great - love the color. And the flames. And well, all of it! Nice job!

I agree Randy...for all the things that are "wrong" with the shape of this kit's body the finished product looks pretty cool sitting on the shelf? Thanks to all for the great feedback/comments!!!
Jantrix Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Outstanding work. I've seen more nearly-out-of-box builds of this kit than any other I can think of. Which is testament to a great kit I believe.
D. Battista Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Very nice Job...!! I like how you altered the decals....
Spex84 Posted February 14, 2018 Posted February 14, 2018 Beautiful paint and absolutely antiseptic assembly, well done!
damodelguy az Posted February 15, 2018 Posted February 15, 2018 very clean and crisp, what ah paint job, and color, sweet
