Super cool build! Reminds me of the scale 'pro sled' days in the late 80s/early 90s 😎

Wicked! The race cars I have seen here are why I have so many of each kit in my stash. I have to get a few more Merc's... this has given me an idea for 3 and all are different forms of drag racing!

Boy that's looking bad to the bone.  That gloss black is going to look killer.
