jeffinvt Posted April 29, 2011 Posted April 29, 2011 Revell merc re-chopped to a more aggresive look, extended front fenders and headlights, smoothed out the belt line, and added some side trim to create two tone. It also has lucas style headlights and 50's pontiac? bumpeerettes.
Sixties Sam Posted April 29, 2011 Posted April 29, 2011 Here's a Revell 49 Merc I built as a Christmas gift to a friend. Purplicious paint, purple flocking on the seats, wired engine. Nice kit to build, gotta do one for myself! Sam

shatteredsoul76 Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 Holy cow nice rides there, looks to be a few hundred yards of BMF on those babies! AWESOME and inspiring guys!
maltsr Posted April 30, 2011 Posted April 30, 2011 So far these have been awesome rides and such a high calibre . Here's my contribution
seeker589 Posted May 1, 2011 Posted May 1, 2011 Here is a mild custom '51 Chevy I did for a club build back in 1990: This is an AMT Merc I started about the time I finished the Chevy. The top is chopped in the rear but not in the front. The rear window is from a Monogram '37 Ford. This is the hood. The scoops are bubble packaging form some long forgotten item. Various product's bubble packaging has some great contours to it - It is vacuum formed.
Guest Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Here's my '64 that I used all of the custom parts in the box.
