I came across this one recently, Buz @ Route 66 Models had it available. Now it wasn't totally perfect. A few paint chips on the roof and around the headlights needed some touchups. Most went fairly well, although the one on the roof needs a bit more attention.

All-in-all, this is a sweet model that was crafted by John Roberts. I am very pleased with it.

Thanks for your fine photography, John.  It's a beautiful model.  Both of my present cars (1:1) have similar roofs. Here's my Collector's Classics version:

All these look great ! Neo/American Excellence also did a fine version of this '54 Mercury Sun Valley. It's a great car to do in model form.
