1960 Mercury Park Lane two door hardtop 

Restoration completed today and these are fresh pics. This AMT model is 1/25 scale. Originally brush painted with heavy coats by the first owner, I had the car repainted and detailed using Bare Metal Foil.

Really nice save and rebuild! Proudly displays all the glamour of early/mid-1960's American cars... glamour being a word that describes almost no autos in this day and age!

I'm curious what paint color that Green is; to my eyes it goes really well with the Black.

Beautiful restoration! I love the color combination! Reminds me of when my Dad and I were restoring my 68 Nova back in the late 70’s. I wanted to paint it Grecian Green with a black vinyl top so my Dad painted the roof green. The body was in black primer and I drove it to work and college that way til 1981. Fast forward to 2004 and we did a full restoration on it back to its original butternut yellow. But this color combo on your Mercury sure brought back the memories!
