Cool 49 merc with Chop Top

This is my new proyect for the next model show in october. The theme for the show will be Hot Rods.

So far I choped the top the equivalent of three inches.

I will french the headligths and integrate the front end rear roll pans to the body.

Maybe i will leave the car in gray or black primer with some scallops.

Re: 49 merc with Chop Top

sweet, I'm doing a similar project. I'm going to model mine like Jesse james's 54 chevy. going to paint it flat black/grey and slam the ass.
I think that with the chop on the top it would look good in a colord primer like a tan or maroon.
keep us posted....
here is a link to mine, i will post some new progress in about an hour .
