40 Mercury- Flintstone Resin

[Modlbldr]

I started this in March, 2018 and got very close to finishing before setting it aside an forgot it on a shelf for the last two and a half years. I just washed the dust off of it last night and got it across the finish line. Here is the link to the build:

Painted with HOK Kopper Pearl and used Modelhaus tires for the front. Interior is a 40 Ford bucket and dash with 53 Ford steering wheel. Other than that, nothing special.

I remember this one now, I wondered what had happened to it.  Beautiful paint finish and the color is very rich looking.

Nice build.  Glad you finished it.

Love it. I saw a Zephyr done like that at a car show once. You captured the look perfectly.

Very nice rendition of the Nick Metranga Merc. I wish AMT or Revell would issue a '40 Merc kit.... -RRR
