NASCAR Models by Brian Ebbinghaus (from Ottawa, Ontario!)

Bobby Allison's 1971 Coca-Cola Mercury

Comments from Brian:
"Built pretty much without body modifications right from the box. The front end was modified by flattening out the centre grill and blanking off the grill on both sides. A new grill panel located on the lower bumper. Scratch built roll cage, seat and interior plumbing. Photo etched hood pins, grills added. Custom made coke bottle graphics (dry transfers) and decals from the Starter Chevelle kit. All the little sponsor decals that were not included in the kit added. Testers gold and Guards red paint.

This was the car immediatly after Allison took over the ride from David Pearson. The black and grey interior colours had yet to be repainted red as later in the year."

(Note from Mr N: I have seen Brian's work at Toronto's Megacity Modelling Madness contest over the past couple years. They are gems. Hard to believe they're 1/43rd!)
