Sweet! :smokin:
love that black/red color combination and nice detailing work on engine.

put that thing on a diet, its way too PHAT. awesome.

Definitely looking good. I love the wheels, the stance, and the paint. It just looks too good.

It also reminds me of that classic Merc that was in that Sly Stallone movie Cobra.

Kinda lame movie, but cool cool car.

looks sweet dude! i like it

Awesome sled! I like the pinstripe on the dashboard(?)

Could we see some more pics of the interior:D

That sled is awesome, what kit? And give us more detail on how you chopped the top!! Looks great!

nice merc , and ol'dude here is how you chop a merc the right way , http://www.cjhilton.com/models/chop.htm

You catch me!
Yes thats what I used as a reference, an old SAE article.

Lets see if I can take a picture inside those little windows!

who is that model originally made by?

Smooth........very Smooth...,but it just screams for ghost flames.

nice build! would like to know what the kit is though!?! looks metal?

i have a queston, what scale is that tire in the trunk? to me it looks way big for that car. Bigger than the original you get with the kit.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!!!!!

Definitely looking good. I love the wheels, the stance, and the paint. It just looks too good.

I was gonna say that too!!, thats a good movie, car is Awesome!!!

fantastic job! from the frenched headlight, to the smothed bumpers and the stance.. perfect!

Thanks for your comments.

The kit is an AMT from the 90´s but the new reissue is the same.

The tire is the same size as the original kit tires.
