Fiction ix Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Hey everyone brand new here and also a first time builder. I am working on my very first car right now. I think i chose a hard one for my first build but i dunno whats hard or not just yet lol. I am bulding a 49' Mercury. Its going on so far i think. Im having fun though so i guess its all that maters
JamesW Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 There's no such thing as a hard kit, even for a beginner. Everyone starts somewhere. Which 49 Merc is it, AMT or Revell?

JamesW Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Hmm, wouldn't know about that one, I haven't had the pleasure of even being able to find it around here. I'm sure it will turn out very nice though. Post some pics when you get a chance.
Fiction ix Posted January 2, 2010 Author Posted January 2, 2010 I will post pictures hopefully by tomorrow. I picked it up at hobbylobby. Im pretty close to being done i think lol.
JamesW Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Closest Hobby Lobby I have is an hour away. I get down there once a month if I'm lucky. Can't wait for the pics, I'm sure it looks good.
limoman39 Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Kyle, You came to the right place, I only joined this site a short time ago but the members here have helped beyond measure. My advice: be creative, have fun, use glue sparingly, and spray paint whenever possible. Good luck with the Merc, Rick
