  I can appreciate your diligent research and attention to detail.
  What are you using for putty/filler?  I need to find something more suited to styrene plastic than Bondo and from what I can tell, whatever your using seems to be working quite well for you. 

BobD:
Great job on this Mercury Mark! The home-made decals look terrific along with the blue streak Goodyears.The 50s & 60s vintage Nascar Grand National cars were my favorites.

Bob P.:
Very nice build.

Brian, it is Tamiya white putty. The key is to use it very sparingly. If you use it to fill large spaces it will shrink after a while and you will notice it. Use as much styrene to fill the area before finishing it off with a little putty.

Michael F:
Very nice Mercury , Mark !!

You did a lot of work on it and it came out very well  8) 8)
