Totally agree, both look great.
I had gone the other way with (darker) with the last 46 Merc and I'm now inspired to do some lighter colors on that model. My last redo of this model, I changed it to a graphite metallic with wire wheels. It looked good but I'm thinking the lighter colors enhance the casting and show more of the many details.
I´m not shure if you are aware of the Radio Rentals Commer van - the one for the staff who wheren`t able to climb ladders or handle antenna.
Just a simple delivery van for television sets and radios.
Very nice! Saves having to buy those fairly expensive reproduction parts and good fix for a broken skylight too.
I did this one about 15 years ago. The window insert was ruined so I made new windows with clear plastic. All the parts were missing (TVs, ladder, and antenna). I filled in the antenna hole and used a ladder from a Merryweather fire engine that had the tips broken off one end of the laddder. I had just started making my own decals and the fixative I was using caused the red ink to bleed on the decal.
