    Thank you very much for the kind words brother. I really appriciate it. Thank you 🙏
    I am really happy that my group build was helping you to get to building another Mercury. And it did help me to build my very first Mercury.
    I must say, Stephen... WHAT a beautiful Mercury you built. I really really love it. The engine looks killer in there, and the color, that is just a GREAT choice for this car. You really nailed it brother. I wish I could park my Mercury next to yours... That would be cool...
    And I agree on the kit itself, Revell REALLY needs to reissue this kit. WHAT a kit. Without doubt the best kit I have ever built. And I must say that it built into the best model I ever built.
    Stephen, thank you for participating, again thank you for the kind words, and congratulations on a killer Mercury 😃

Man, I wish Revell would reissue this kit, AND while they're at it, give u san all new (this level of kit and options) '49-50 Ford Custum kit too, that would be sweet!! Thanks again for creating and hosting this Group Build, brother, I enjoyed it! ✌😁

Looks like the Rona Virus is back at our house for the 2nd month in a row (I'm sicker now than last month, and caught it both times at work, ugh), it may delay my Under 1000, but that's next on my bench and I'm anxious to be able to get on it, but it may be a bit late (I'll probably mention that in my Models & Coffee video, LOL) 🤦‍♂🤣

    Beautiful Stephen!! You killed it. I have one of these kits but have never built one. Every time I see one I want to build one. Sometimes the kits fight back. You didn’t need that exhaust, or the driveshaft or that Buick engine at all. The Pontiac engine looks wonderful down in there. Again, Great work on it.

      Thanks so much, Keith, I appreciate you, brother!! 🙏 Man I hate to hear that they're hard to get over there, that really sucks 😞 Revell really should reissue this one (a straight reissue with all the current options/extras), they're getting hard to find here too (and more expensive), only a few on eBay at any given time. The only reissues that I know of was same kit in a different shaped box once, and a not quite a reissue Woody/wagon kit that shared lots of the basic parts and drivetrain, but doesn't have all of the extra parts or building options that this kit has.
