S. Svendsen Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I just wrapped up this stock '71 Mercury Cyclone Spoiler. I kit bashed an original MPC funny car body with a Revell '70 Torino chassis and interior. More pics and all the details are at the link. http://www.svensworldofwheels.com/71_cyclone_page.html
Guest Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Well, it certainly takes a pair to post a pic of a real car, and try to pass it off as a model! Wow, that is incredible! How about some engine and chassis pics?
disabled modeler Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 VERY NICE!... My dad once owned one like it but different color....very cool!
diymirage Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 nicest model ive seen ALL YEAR plus added points for this being the first time ive ever seen this car in a scale version period
crazyjim Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 I thought it was REAL. Beautiful build and photography. And SHINY :)
Guest Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 That is a beautiful Cyclone Sean! Did you have to modify the body to get it to stock condition? Also, what interior did you use? I would love to have a Cyclone to build for myself!
TooOld Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Stunning !!! You did a beautiful job with this one . It also happens to be one of my favorite cars of all time and I have an original MPC kit getting closer to my bench every day !
rustybill1960 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 A stunning beauty Sean!! Thank You for sharing Later Russ
bogger44 Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 Incredible build, Sean! Your photography is top-notch as well. I'd love to build a Cyclone for myself, as they are one of my favorite cars from the era. Simply stunning build, thanks so much for sharing!
realgone58 Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Absolutely gorgeous!!! I'd love to do a base Montego.
1zebra3 Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) Nice build!!!!! I can remember my dad bringing home one of this in white in the mid 70s when he use to sell used cars. I've got one of this ( 1/25 th scale ) but I can't decide if I want to build it as showroom stock or something else. Edited January 7, 2013 by 1zebra3
Sport Suburban Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 I love this. This is just awwsome. I want to build one of these someday!!
stevehansen Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Crazy good job, brings back fond memories of teh old MPC kit
