Sweet 49 Merc kit!!.. I did the MPC 49 Merc Snap Kit Police Squad car over a year ago .. I think it came out fairly decent..

Thank you!

[@butchsbasementbuilds6828]

Nice kit, I want one....lol

[@sodakmodelcars]

I think its a kit you should have atleast one of lol

[@olezippi]

Pretty kewl kit man. I'm working on the AMT 49 Merc. I like the Revell kit much better.

[@sodakmodelcars]

Yes sir, but it is nice that there's a non chopped option out there as well.

[@paintnamer6403]

When I bought the AMT '49 Mercury kit in the '70s it was part of their Street Rods line, I really loved the cross ram Max Wedge that was engine option.

[@sodakmodelcars]

I noticed that on Zippi's build of it. Unique option.

[@modelcars2978]

Crazy about a Mercury.🤟🤠👍

[@sodakmodelcars]

Go downtown and buy a Mercury or Two!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

Looks like a really nice kits like most Revell/Monogram kits are!!

[@sodakmodelcars]

That's pretty true for the most part.

[@ModelCarGuy]

Wouldn’t mind building this the car reminds me of sheriff off of Cars

[@sodakmodelcars]

Mercs are awesome and so are Hudsons (Moebius had a couple Hudson Hornet kits)

[@ramblers69]

Nice review Adam, it's a really nice kit, goes together really well, I have a video on mine, have to go back 5 years, :) 😎👍👍

[@sodakmodelcars]

Thanks, I've seen a several of these built and they all look awesome. This one is in my American Graffiti stack.

[@Jeffsmodelgarage]

Nice review Adam the 49 merc is a awesome car

[@sodakmodelcars]

I agree! THANKS

[@papasmodelcarroom8450]

AWESOME KIT I've built 3 of them no problems at all. looking forward to seeing what you do with it 😀

[@sodakmodelcars]

I'm definitely after more you can't go wrong with a chopped Merc!

[@jrsscalemodelz4378]

Looks like a great merc kit I’ve built me in the past but it was a resin body 1951 did suicide doors on it .. I need to add one Of those kits to my stash 👍🏻

[@sodakmodelcars]

Sounds like a sweet build! I've tons of good about the kit, so I'd grab one if you can.

[@seamybmw]

Nice review Adam i have that in the stash built one a while back does build very well enjoy

[@sodakmodelcars]

Thanks, it sounds like a good one!

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I built a chopped version of the AMT 49 Merc. If I had known about this kit, I would have started with since it was pre chopped. BUT, then I would have had the fun experience of doing it myself. lol I also built the kit bone stock to show the differences. I should look into the Revell kit so I can revisit a lead sled.

[@sodakmodelcars]

That sounds cool to have a stock/custom pair! There's certainly still enough things to make the Revell different than your current built.

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

I just might have to locate one of these someday as a mate to the MPC 49 Merc I did over a year ago.. I'm going to a Toy Show tomorrow and a train show in 2 weeks so you never know what I'll end up bringing home.... There will be videos on my finds!!

[@sodakmodelcars]

I would recommend it. Good luck on the hunt for new stash adds!

[@keithsmodelsandrcs6593]

these Mercury's look awsome i believe foose has one id like to get i actually wouldn't mind finding any mercury id say I'll get it out local soon starting to get few these old revelle kits in and new releases

[@sodakmodelcars]

Yes, they're a classic look and hard to beat!

[@oldschoolmodeler]

I would love to get one of these kits and build the 1950 Merc from the movie Cobra.

[@sodakmodelcars]

I've heard lots of good things and Slys Cobra would be a cool one.

[@timemachinesscalemodels]

I have that one my stash. I don't believe I've ever busted into it.

[@sodakmodelcars]

I'd like to add more of them! This ones earmarked to go along with the 55 and others.

[@thescalemodelcarguychannel8681]

Those are great kits and I think I still have a flatbox version somewhere in the stash?

[@sodakmodelcars]

I've heard and seen alot of great builds with these!
