Unnecessary Purchases

[attitude]

I have been looking for one of these for well over a year and finally had one pop up on eBay. The Merc 2.5 is one of my favorite motors, right next to the LS7. I figured if I can’t afford the real thing this is the runner up lol.

It is a Alterscale 1/9 scale 1997 2.5 225. The seller I bought this from has the Mariner version for sale, I would of bought it too but I’m trying to be halfway responsible…
