We have two categories: Best Mercury and Best Sedan. We have 4 entires for the Mercury category and 2 for the Sedan category. Voting will close on Friday December 5th at 5pm Mountain time.

Bump for the evening guys. Thanks to luciomduran for organizing!

 

I made my selection. Very nice job to all the builders. One month to finish any of those would be a challenge. I'd like to see these build offs continue, it's a good idea!

 

Wow! How did I miss this? Well, I voted and I vote doing this again.

 

Oh, model cars... Sorry, my bad..................

 

bump for the morning crowd

 

BUMP one more time.

 

nice work by all the builders

 

Is that all of em? Man I thought there would be more!
Doc.

 

Cool contest.....nice builds everyone.

 

Thats some great work! I was thinking about building a model but im sure it would just look like glue and plastic in the end. great job guys

 

I want to vote for the model in the SinisterCustom Avatar.

 

I voted. There were some pretty nice ones. I hope to see more entries next time, and I hope there are a lot more kits to choose from.

 

You know, this is really cool. One of the things that got me going as a kid was building models (Badman in the blk/flamed version was my 1st) with dad. I think SRM screwed up when they got rid of the Model coverage!

 

Me too!! I was ready to vote for Farrah Fawcette.
What talent with the model cars. No way in he!! could I ever do that. No talent, less patience.

Jack

 

id vote for all of them, but it wont let me! damn fine work fellas!

 

I don't see LaTisha's name on ballot box. But the detail on Pscotts 32 has won me over >>>>.

 

well actually mine ( the orange merc) I started and finished in less than a week. Found out about the build off the last week and to get either of these 2 models had to drive out of state to get. What is the deal with Walmart not carrying models anymore? Anyway I prefer mine not to be judged with these guys because they deserve the best. Mine was thrown together at the last minute. This was my, coming out of model retirement build. I actually amazed myself!

 

studenut48, You are crazy. That Merc belongs in the build-off no doubt about it. Great job and I can't wait to see what you will come up with for the next one. It will be allot more open so finding a kit shouldn't be so crazy. If you ever need help finding a kit, let me know and I will help mail one out to you...

 

hmmmmm, more open, hmmmm. Well i have several kits on hand, just not any new ones.

 

I second the motion. Your Merc looks great in that new color paint. Just finishing a model alone is big achievement.

 

After watching this last night I'd have a very difficult time choosing a favorite model.

Maybe the one who walks in at 2:53

BUMP for the evening crowd..

 

Amazing to think that Hippie6 and Pscott started off with the same kit.

 

Congradulations to all 6 builders. I think everyone did a great job and should be extremely proud of the completed models. Great job everyone!

 

Reminds me of when I was a little kid and dreamed of shrinking down and driving my toy cars. These models are awesome!

 

all these models rock, it was definitely a hard choice!
