Here's the merc Iv been building on and off for ages, just wanted to get something simple done and on my shelf. Nothing too fancy, frenched the headlights, dropped the bum and front just a tad for the traditional nose-up look.

FINALLY DONE SOMETHING THAT COULD PASS FOR FINISHED Very Happy

Slowly's Merc 48103_10

Slowly's Merc 54308310

Slowly's Merc 55125410

Slowly's Merc 57679310

Slowly's Merc 57707410

Not the best, but still very happy I have someing on my empty-looking 'done' shelf.

Now the question is what to attempt next...

That looks cool. Love the merc's. Those pinstripe stickers really top it off. You need to put a 'good camera' on your Xmas / birthday wish list tho because im betting this looks tons better in the flesh !

This fog is so thick, i can't see my own cataracts.

Nice looking model, but some clear photos would make admiring it easier.

Nice old Mercury. Looks good with the pinstripes - nice build mate. I've lifted the "fog" off a couple of the pics with Photoshop - easier to see the car now.
