Awsom 50

[happy grumpy]

Not 100% accurate , I took the Revell kit that had the top already chopped, I did not want to mess with the hood so I left the rounded corners, I added the scoop. I swap the front bumper with the one from the woody. The hub caps are turned aluminum. (being a machinist helped ) . I wish I had known back then about fireball modelworks. Joseph makes excellent BF Goodrich  radials. I settled with what I had in the spare box. The goal was not to have an exact replica but close enough to be recognized by movie buffs. it's close enough for me. My heart sank when they destroyed it but I heard they kept the hero car. I don't know the full story about the ownership of the car, but Stallone reportedly was able to get it  back some years after.

thanks for looking.

Looks like the car from the movie "Cobra"

Actually, it looks BETTER than the car from the movie!

Clean build.

Bad looking 50 Mercury and the move "Cobra" was pretty bad as well.  Pretty kewl looking hub caps. Nicely done Mario.

Looks great, well done! I used Revell's kit for this Merc as well, it's a really nice kit to work with.
