1963 Mercury
S-55 Breezeway 2 Door Hardtop 13 well defined and highly detailed castings make up this unique model of Mercury's top-of-the-line S-55 2 door Hardtop for 1963. $49.95 plus 8.50 for Tracked and Insured Priority Mail to anywhere in the lower 48 States |
This model can easily be modified to represent the 4 door hardtop S-55 or, with a little more work, it can be modified to represent ANY of the other hardtop or pillared models in the 63 Mercury Breezeway line-up.
Any '62 through '66 AMT/ERTL Mercury or Ford kit (not included) can be used as the donor for this kit. We'd suggest using a Ford since they are more plentiful (less expensive :-)
Please note that our kits need a minimal cleaning since no mold release agent is used in the casting process, and they are crisp and clean. Typical of resin, some sanding for proper fit may be required during assembly.
We offer some of the finest and best detailed resin kits on the market today, but don't take our word for it, click HERE to see what others say about our kits.
Included with this kit is a complete color chart showing both solid and two-tone colors with available interiors shown on the reverse...Printed on Kodak 44# Hi Gloss stock. You also get a 10 page builders guide printed in full color on Kodak 26# presentation stock. It contains photos from all angles and a great number of detail shots to help you with building your kit. Instructions to modify your S-55 into another model in the 63 line are also included as are additional resources to help you get more information about the Mercurys for 1963.
You can use Alclad, for a really great chrome-like finish on the bright-work components of the kit, send them out for plating, or fight with BMF to do the job. Personally, I'd go with the Alclad finish. It's available in spray cans or for use in an air brush.
As a "Freebie" the kit also includes enough of our new window glazing material to do several models... That's it shown below on one of our 1957 Chevrolet Sport Sedans. This one was built and detailed by Bob's Curbside 66. More photos and details are available at The Resin Realm.
...and some of our new "Chrome Trim" mylar stock for making interior and exterior trim pieces. It's real chrome plate, only a few thousandths thick, and is great for mirrors, dash, headliner and door trim, p/u bed strips and lining...you'll probably find a gazillion other uses for it. Unlike BMF it's chrome on both sides and has no adhesive coating. It's also not as flexible as BMF, but then again, it's not as fragile either. The last two pix tell the story.
