Mercury Cougar Eliminator 1969

Frank esordisce con questa Mercury cougar eliminator del '69 model kit di AMT 1/25...
Recuperata presso uno Junkyard dalle sue parti. (Arizona)..in pessime condizioni ma come si sa, con poca ruggine e molta sabbia...ovunque...Ora sabbiata, verniciata di un tipico colore "bright blue"uno dei 4 disponibili per l'eliminator...

Frank begins with this Mercury Cougar Eliminator '69 AMT model kits 1 / 25 ...
Recovered from a Junkyard its parts. (Arizona) .. in very poor condition but as you know, with little rust and a lot of sand ... everywhere ... now sand, paint color of a typical "bright blue" one of four available on the eliminator ...
 il motore è tutto nuovo ed è il pezzo forte di questa macchina..monta un Cobra jet 428 (ovviamente di derivazione  Ford)...

the engine is all new and is the highlight of this machine .. fitted with a Cobra Jet 428 (obviously derived from Ford) ...




 spoiler al posteriore di serie sul modello...cromature in perfetto ordine come mamma Mercury le aveva prodotte..
 standard rear spoiler...  on chromed parts in perfect order as the mother had produced Mercury



 qui un migliore dettaglio ......l'auto davanti al QG di Frank....

better detail here ...... the car in front of the HD of Frank ....



 Frank si appresta al collaudo finale su strada..un pieno magari dopo uno spuntino...e via per le lunghe e diritte stade delle highway americane...con quei pneumatici super nuovi
(polyglass gt-good year) la presa sembra possa essere delle migliori.......

Frank is going to final testing on the road .. maybe after a full meal ... and go for long, straight highway stade of the American ... with those new tires super

(polyglass -GT)  seems to be taking the best .......



 vista di fronte di un "muso duro" con i fari a scomparsa celati da quello sguardo......
front view of a "hard-nosed" with pop-up headlights hidden behind those eyes ......





Ancora un controllo sul ponte ............

Another check on the lift......

ci siamo... ancora qualcuno dovrà mangiare della polvere....fagli vedere Frank..........

We ... yet someone must show him eating the dust .... Frank ..........
