 Yeah. I know, another Merc! But this has been our club logo for 19 years.  Caddy wheel covers are from SJS Resin (long gone) with a bullet added to the center. '53 Buick trim from Replicas & Miniatures Co. of Md. and lakes pipes from DUDEK.  Although Reps & Mins makes an excellent set of Buick headlights, these are from The Modelhaus. I added clear lenses.  Kit engine with some detailing.  Small bullet tailights from the parts box. Sunken license plate (M.A.M.A. was founded in 9/88). Photoetched club plate from Reps & Mins.  Reshaped bubble skirts to match the logo. The club logo was drawn 19 years ago by Dave Roehle (Dave in the Hat) |

Great looking model. Nice workmanship.
I like the color better under the lighting you used in the first photo.

I have since color-corrected the gray backround pics and I'll change them on my Fotki site later. I also DON'T like the Appleton spots on this particular car, but they are on the logo. |
