1949 Revell mercury rebuild

[ChainsawMike]

dont really know what I am going for here, this was my first car build after I got tired of doing pickups. It was originally a tamiya coral blue and the engine bay was still unpainted, few nights ago I sprayed it a matte black with some spare "bumper spray paint". Then I took a bunch of decal sheets I never used and slapped whatever I thought looked 'racer-esque'. I'm new to the automotive hobby as a whole and don't know too much about drag racers and vintage gassers, so take this with a grain of salt! I also took out the stock motor that it came with, horribly painted with acrylic and had awful brush strokes on it. going to re do that engine entirely with new chrome valve covers, manifold, and carbs.  for the time being I shoved a SBC into it from my spare parts drawer, and repainted the engine bay. Now I gotta re do the interior and put new seats and dashboard into it.
