MPC 1949 Mercury

Got this done today. MPC 1949 Mercury Snap Kit. Didn’t do the chrome on the side. Hands are too shaky.

[SpikeSchumacher]

Very cool color on that one!

Thank you Mathias.

Always wondered what those looked like built. Yours looks good.

Like Bill said, I always wondered what this kit would look like built. Very nice, I like the wheels and tires, and I positively love the color you chose. Excellent.

Good ol' merc looks really cool in this color. ??

[TransAmMike]

Oh yeah, pretty darn cool looking Merc David?

[Rattlecan Dan]

Nice job! Could pick that one out instantly in a parking lot of a' thousand.

[Yeah Nah]

Neat looking Merc David! Love that colour too.

[XYHARRY]

Really nice Merc there David. Body and interior colours work well together and those wheels are gorgeous, well done. 

Cheers, 

David M. ??

That looks great! A perfect color choice too!

Thank you Bill, David, Larry, Mario, Mike, Donato, Garry, David and Jeff.  The paint is VHT Engine Metallic Burnt Copper. Didn't use the side pipes that came with the kit but added duals out the back. And the wheels and tires are from a Revell 1957 Belair Snap Kit.

I do like the Burnt Copper paint colour David G., and this body shape for the 1949 Mercury reminds me of the early 50's Hudson Hornet . . .

Great looking paint color and finish. Like the "shaved" body look.

That's one tidy Merc David, well done.  Thanks for the information on the paint, I've seen that brand around and have been curious about it.  Looks like it lays down nice.

[Zippi]

Love that color on your 49 Merc.  Nicely done David.

[ChrisR]

Nice!!

[Sledsel]

Great Job! Looks very nice! Great color on it. Ironically this old snap kit looks better than the Revell offering.
