VIP Tamiya Benz SL500

its a concept i am willing to try its half way there already. i took a ready built SL5 that i had for 3 years stripped the paint and lowered the chassie on matt chrome Amistad Vs. im currently in the process of spliting the exhaust so that its a full dual exhaust(looks better) the interior will be shot in dullcote(beige is the color i originally painted but its too glossy for my taste) the body was dark metallic red but will be shot tamiya white with the possibilty of going 2 tone but what goes with white (pink and black are out of the question) the badges are all gone the grill will be replaced with brass(looks gold) mesh. so what do you think i have before pics ready but i will post bothe when finished.

You do one and I'll do one!

Sounds like a great project.

Hi,
I'm very happy to see that some great modeller are interested by some BEAUTIFUL MERCEDES.......
