1953 Mercury hard top
Posted by AllPointsHobbies.com on Saturday, February 26, 2011 11:05 PM

Looking for a 1953 Mercury hard top for a customer.  I have not seen one but wanted to check before I told them its not available.  Any info would be appreciated.

As far as I know no kit has been done for this vehicle. You're best bet would be to check the aftermarket resin manufacturers, Modelhaus does not list this kit.

Resin Realm sells a '53 Merc made by R&R but, in my experience, R&R products are pretty rough and that's how this one looks in the photos:

They can be worked with if you want it bad enough. Your choice!

The modeler's rule of thumb: The worse it smells, the better it works!

I see what you mean!  But since there isn't any other kits available it seems to be the only choice.  Thanks mr moto!!
