In my previous post I mentioned a couple of these little gems that I slightly modified. Here's one of those. I took a '53 Pace Car and removed the graphics, added a top from one of the '54 Mercury models.

This is really a nice model car. I have been surprised neither Brooklin nor Goldvarg have done it. Both have done a 1953 Ford, but in a different body style, so at least some of the work has been done.
