    FIRST OFF DESOTO...**** OFF NO ONE ASKED FOR YOUR OPINION YOU STUPID PIECE OF **** and second the car isn't for me its for the guy who owns the building where i work...if you were smart you would have realized "wow a 21 year old kid who wants an extrememly rare car, one that he didn't even knew existed for that fact, and money or distance isn't a problem" third this board isn't for ****y ***holes its for people who wanna learn and have questions that other people are kind enough to answer but i guess some people just wanna surf the site and be a smart***

    oh the guy who wants the merc' also owns a 57' corvette, 51' ford, 39 ford truck, WW2 jeep, 57' chevy bel-air convert., just ordered a 07' shelby GT *custom order* for his wife, 32' ford roadster, and also a 06' mustang full blown kit car...so as you can see money is no problem, oh that doesn't include the freakin' touring bus he goes on vacation in!

    Maybe the guy who has a rich uncle who just won the Indiana lottery and wants to buy a new car.

    At least he didn't ask about a 54 Chevy taildragger chop primer car with West Coast Chopper stickers on it like he saw at Walmart in the mark down section!

    What's the saying about pink *******?

    hey man, looking at my post (the 3rd one on here) i hope you didnt take it as me being an *** too. i was trying to be funny. you asked if you were wrong, so i just answered direct...
    good luck on the merc. if your boss isnt too concerned with authenticity or fibergl*** i think there was someone making kits to transform 4-drs in to 2-dr convertibles awhile back. i also think winfield was selling 'gl*** mercs also.
