bobthehobbyguy Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Very nice. Nice to see a 49 merc done as a mild custom. You did a lot of work to clean this kit up and selection of modifications are perfect. That miles deep gloss black is the perfect cooor. This model is a real stunner!!
W-409 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Dang that was a fast one! I was going to post a comment on your WIP thread, but I didn't make it before it was already done. You did an excellent job with it. Especially that paint is super nice. Before you painted it, I thought it might look even better if it was Chopped, but these pics prove that I was wrong... It looks just perfect as it is. Nice work!
crazyrichard Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 thnx guys ! muchg apriciated and yes from teh start i just fell in love with the stock roof hight .. for me the proportions of the whole car are just perfect then .. dont get me wrong i like chopped mercs but for my first one i wanted to keep it like this .. in the future i want to do a more radical merc
Peter Lombardo Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Flawless paint....very period correct. In the proper setting it could pass for the real thing.
realgone58 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Very nice! Just goes to show, they don't have to be chopped to look right!
wrecker388 Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 You built something shiny?!? lol. Looks great as always Rich!
