49 Mercury Sedan Delivery

Got this one done. Started with a Jimmy Flintstone resin body (yes it's a phantom), I used the AMT 49 Merc for the conversion. Buick side trim was made by me. Flipper caps are from the RM 59 Chev coupe kit. Tail lights are out of my spares. Motor is mainly kit with different rocker covers and air cleaner. Radiator and support are alcladed along with zorst and front cross member.
Bumpers, grill and side pipes are from the RM 49 Merc.
My missus reckons I shouldn't have bothered putting rear wheels under it, I told her not to be so silly, how would you drive it
Paint colour is Holden Poison Ivy acrylic lacquer with extra Black Pearl thrown in and straight white on the bottom.
Need to get better sunlight pics, will try on the weekend.
Onto the next

That's one very super cool lead sled merc

........she's a stunner mate,

At first I thought ...This guys taking the p*ss. A model with no back wheels . But if you say they are there I believe ya !

I have to say I really like this model. The color, the chrome and the general look of thing ticks all the boxes for me. Well done !

sweet as brother

Another good one Tubbo.

Truly a lead sled...looks great.

That is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, great stance, and a top colour combo aswell, the last pic really shows off the colour, love it!!

Beautiful!

Cool......... something different

Thats awesome, was hoping to see this one in Mackay.
Oh well, more chances for us!

Perfect! Great colour choice, awesome mods and the best part......................it's a van!

Excellent work mate.

Love it, looks great. Love the stance and colour combo especially!

This looks terrific - great work. I have wondered what one of these would look like, now I know- it is really neat.

Thanks for all the comments guys. The thing I like about it is the way the belt line trim drops down at the back which makes it look like it's dragging its bum even more and it's got to be one of the best looking phanton body styles I've ever seen,proportions look spot on.

Man that looks sensational, I love it.

Colour choice is perfect for the car and the finish looks perfect!

that looks amazing another top job
