Thanks for those detail shots. I waiting to see some more on this rig. Absolutely beautiful!

 

I saw this car at the Ferguson's shop before it was restored. I thought it was magnificent then. It is a piece of art now. Thanks for posting the pictures.

.

 

Pardon my stupidity, but is the reason for the mercury graphic that the motor is an old merc straight 6?

 

Nope, that is it... no more.

It is a masterpiece built by a master fabricator.

No that isn't a Mercury graphic/badge, the M is for Miller. The engine is a Pontiac flat 6 with custom speed parts.

 

Don II did a fantastic job of restoring this car, and you did a great job of capturing the essense and the spirit of it. Thanks for bringing us these pictures.

 

M is for Miller? I belive it has a pontiac motor...I saw this in a old Hop Up and at the LA roadster show in January this year and it was bare metal...beautiful work

 

Awesome.....Thanks for the pic's.....It's a fantastic piece of craftsmanship....A stunning car before the restoration.....

 

Beautiful!

 

It's beautiful. Too perfect, however.

 

Hooooolllllllyyyy....SHIT.... That is beautiful!!!! Thank you very much for taking the time to post all of those pics. That car is so bad**** I would have restored it for free just to see all the cool little workings of the car.
Thanks Bill

 

Hey....I saw that car at a show at some low rent golf course in Monterey....

Great pics man.

 

Spectacular!!

 

Nice pics.......detailed ones are great.............I was lucky enough to see this car at the NHRA Museum...........worth the trip just for that.....

Thanks Jimmy!

 

What he said !!!

 

thats a bad**** little car!!!!

 

The miller car has to be one of the best fabricated cars built for the lakes when it was originally constructed. I was lucky enough to have a chance to do a little work on the car about 6 years ago and the craftsmanship that was put in this car is extremely hard to match. The car looks stunning now that it is all finished, Great Job to the Ferguson family and the crew that helped bring this car back.

Jimmy Photos of that show are great i love all the detail shots

 

I hate to be a spoiler, but is all the plumbing period correct? No doubt this car is a work of art.

 

WOW! That is a perfect restoration, I'd buy an ARDUN from those guys!

 

WOW! Thanks for posting these man! I really appreciate it!!!!

 

WOW!!! I repeat, WOW!!! Thanks for posting.

 

Beautiful.

I was lucky enough to see the car 90's...

 

True Craftsmanship

 

Thanks for posting! The detail shots are a real treat.

Did you take this many detail shots of the other cars?
Could this be the first installment of a series?

 

Thanks Jimmy,

Balm for a gearhead's soul.

Makes me want to go out to the garage and polish some metal....
