I'll also be doing the Merit 1/24 1955 Simca Gordini. I simple kit of about twenty parts but I'll use wheels from Fernando Pinto to give it life.

Another great choice! I love race cars from the 1950s.

A five minute mock-up. No glue. Just playing so far.

The wheels are gorgeous, did you get the tires from Fernando as well?

Merit kits were amazing for his era. Adding Pinto wired wheels is a good improvement. This build will be very interesting.
