1966 Mercury 24 hr build

[Sam I Am]

Finally have pictures of this. Built box stock other than the wheels. Painted Tamiya Pink with Testors White lightning top coat. This is also my Cannonball community build entry.

This one's a real looker Sam. Stance and wheels suit this build. Colour and detail work is exceptional. 

Cheers, David. ??

Hello Sam,

this is a hot looking Merc! ? Color fits perfect and the wheels are lovely.

[Modlbldr]

Looking great, my friend! The color, wheels and stance make the car outstanding.

See you next year for the 24 hr build.

What a neat build. The color is very nice; looks almost lavender with the pearl white over the pink.

Now that one long low ride there, great job?

Thanks everyone, I appreciate all the kind words. 

Ewetwo, this is the first time I have used big wheels. I am not normally fond of them but found these in my parts boxes. I normally give them all away but for some reason....

[NOBLNG]

Sweet! Nice clean build!?

That's a good looking Mercury for a 24 hr build.

This is very well done.

Ok, pink works, I would have never guessed it but man-o-man that looks fantastic.

Absolutely love it! Looks very nice! I wish I could achieve a look like that after 24 days...
