bobss396 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 An iconic kit to say the least. I built my 1st one when I was 8. Brush painted Testors yellow... I thought it came out great. I have a couple in the queue, a '49 chop-top resin body (lots of work) and a Revell one. In total, I have around 10 '49 Merc kits, maybe more and couple of resin bodies.
