A
1965 Mercury Parklane. An older kit, which I bought it as
a built up and restored it. I painted it with Testors
Gloss Red.
This kit seems like a promo, but the hood opens. I put a 428
big block in it.
This
kit also features a "Twist a Wrist" steering
wheel. Meaning you could steer the car just by turning your
wrist, rather than turning the whole steering wheel around.
(I used to have an old video showing this car with that steering
wheel).
Mercury
Muscle Cars - This Muscle Car Color History covers all the
legendary editions of Mercury classics like the Cougar, Marauder,
Cyclone and Cyclone Spoiler, and Comet. Detailed for the first
time are the development of the Cougar XR 7, essentially an upscale
Mustang; the evolution of the road-going Cyclone into its racing
counterparts; and rare models and special editions like the Dan
Gurney and Cale Yarborough Cyclones. Color photographs depict
these seldom celebrated cars in mint condition. All Ford hi-po
engines are covered.
Ford,
Lincoln & Mercury Stock Cars - This book covers the stock
cars of Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln from the inception of Grand
National racing in 1948 through the modern era of NASCAR. Eighty-plus
colour photos feature such legendary cars as the Mercury,
Galaxie, Thunderbird, and Boss Mustang, and the men who drove
them. Also included is the Taurus presently campaigned on the
Winston Cup series. A special section takes a look at the famous
Aero-Wars of 1969 to 1971.
