Customs WOOWEEE!! I got myself a 50 Merc: Update

Six kids?????? Damn dude, you been busy!

Honestly I'd like six kids myself, but we're done now. I'm taking my 8 year old to NSRA, all weekend, just me and him, dude time, I can't wait. Mama's gonna stop by on Saturday.

 

...That is absolutely the truth...

 

My son told me to let everyone know he said thanks for the nice comments on the Merc. I plan to have him clean it out over the weekend. I am going to be going to Hershey on the 8th maybe I will find some stuff......lol

 

Very kool find.. Kongrats and Kan't wait to see it on the road.

 

LOCKWOOD...man if you can brang that old MERC. back from the grave, then brother you deserve to be called a custom'izer. i can plainly see the body is rusted away on the bottom. LOCK it would benifit you grately if you take detailed pics. of your build. O YEA i'll follow this 1 closely...POP.

 

Man..... ENJOY!! Congrats on the find and your FUTURE "MISS STRESS". B)

 

my son tells all his friends at school he has a merc way 2 go man keep the kids involved

 

Yeah NAds six of them....lol..........the are a blast and as for being bust that is how we keep warm in the winter.....lol

Thanks

My boy just smiled when he read this and told me to tell you thanks

Well that is the plan POP

Hey I like that

Yeah but I think I told my friends that what ever my dad had was mine too........yuo got to love hearing them tell their stories to their buddies.

Anyway just to show everyone how the poor ol girl is doing this is a pic I just went out and took for this post. I just do not have room in the garage for her at this moment but soon.

 

Well I am still gathering parts for the Merc and I just thought I would show off the new shoes I got for it.

 

Nice Shoes, man!!!!

 

Thanks Todd, I am getting happy about this build and can not wait to start assembling the pieces I have been gathering

 

Sometimes I think that's the way to go, get a stock one and fix all the obvious stuff. And I bet you'll have a lot less in your car, keep the faith!

 

Are them 58 caddys? Will they fit any 15in rim? Man they look great. I would like to have a set of them...

 

They are 56 caddy caps and wheels

 

Thanks, Looks great.

 

I am still looking for more stuff. I just went and looked at six other Mercury parts cars one is really nice a 51 2 door that I am thinking of scarfing up the others are exactly that parts cars. one 49 2 door and the others were 50's one two door and three 4 doors.

 

I almost forgot I have to go look at two others this week sometime one is a 49 or 50 2 door and the other is a baby Lincoln 49 or 50 2 door.

 

I've a '49 Linc 2 dr.
Show us pics when you get em..
Cool cars. lol

 

I am going to see if they are in good enough shape to drag out of their hiding places or at the least to see if they have any good parts left on them . but I will try to get pics for you guys.

 

Nice score! Will be a bit of a challenge, but aren't they all?

 

Nice work Joey,,,,,How are you pal hope all is well..sorry but I can't make it there this year, busy working in the shop and organising my Rockabilly weekend www.camperdowncruise.com wish you Raffman and johnnyB could make it...
Good luck on the Merc to pal...I should get onto my 40 Merc...

 

another one saved---way to go.

 

Very kool, I love progress.

 

Go man. Right on.

 

Thanks everyone, I just picked up something to make a floater grille out of. I will post pics when I begin working on it.

 

Thanks!!! Raffman, for taking me to this treasure. Now I have some more parts to put into this build.

 

You're one lucky man. A Merc is my Grail. I'm sure you'll do her well. Congrats!

 

Looking good, Joe! I know where there is a couple of four doors in an old yard if you need any parts. I think you can see them in these pics.
