pack rat Posted June 29, 2021 Posted June 29, 2021 An old-school custom from back in the day when the only way to do it was to chop the AMT kit. Paint is custom-mixed Testors enamels to come up with a metallic cherry cola shade. 1
Bucky Posted July 1, 2021 Posted July 1, 2021 AMT '49 Merc. This represents one of my most extensive custom jobs, to date. I pancaked the hood and trunk. Fabricated a forward tilt hinge for the hood. Tamiya blue and green paint. I started this custom Mercury four years ago.... I'm using an old AMT '67 Cougar rebuilder I got off the well known auction site, with the fastback roof from a "Snakebite" Shelby kit. I've got it this far. Hopefully, soon, I can get back to work on this one.
