Nice chop.
How many inches out of that?

 

I thank you ever so kindly!

That roof line is the cat's meow.

Would it be OK if I were to PM you for some measurements at some point? Just maybe 3 or 4 of them.

Thanks again!

 

you are all more than welcome...

heads up guys, a long time friend has his '40 merc convertible for sale on Waco,Texas craigslist.....It would take very little to drive as is

 

I would like to join with my Dick Dean '47 Merc

 

WOW! That's a rare one....Nice car!

 

Great to see there's still some new guys out there...
Jkkustoms-#357
emiliedk-#358
rtfink-#359

enfieldjoe added a '51 to his list...

When I get my Photobucket account sorted out,i'll post my Merc pic's from the Long Beach show...

 

How about some history on the car? Did you have him do the car for you,or was it done when you found it? When was it done?

 

I am just the lucky caretaker and proud driver and owner of the car. The care was done in 2000. I bought it from Lake Elsinore, Ca. as you see it. I have had the car for about three years now. We drive it all over the place from the coast of Miss. to Chicago and all in between. It is a blast to drive and I am proud to own such a beautiful piece as this. I was lucky to find it. We added the beltline trim back on this year, but other than that, it was left as it was when Dick Dean chopped it.

 

Hey there fink! Good to see you on here. I met you a few weeks ago in Branson at the Sleds in Sept show. I'm the guy with the chopped green 51 Merc that bugged Kurt all weekend about the Alcorn Merc.

 

Realy,realy nice,seen that in "live" in Uddevalla.

 

It was nice meeting you. Great car

 

Haha! I pretty much usually leave a show and think well, my car needs major work to get it close to what I'd like. Then, I get home and drive it to work, stop for gas or go to lunch and some one trips out and wants to take a picture. Then I tell myself, it ain't what I'd like it yet, but it's the only chopped merc in town. LOL

 

i always get left out of the fun cause my merc is a 69

 

Being a BowTie then you should have a Chevy anyway..

 

I got a 51 coupe... just started the chop

 

Did this chop yesterday.
Now the hard work finishing it.

 

Those last two chops are going to look wicked! Can't wait to see more!

 

Count me in! Picked up my '62 comet a few weeks ago. Someone else already did the dirty work of stripping it out so now I'll be building a gasser.

 

You're in.....

 

On the list buddy...

 

A few more pics here.

Just finished the new paint job and finally getting around to putting up some new pictures. I hate this computer. I have to go to work in 3 hours and I just barely figured out how to post pictures.

 

All the sanding is over and now time to drive the hell out her.Im glade its over i was even starting to dream of sanding lol

 

Hey guys just wanted to get in on the fun proud owner of a 51 merc project car.
Its great checking out some of the pics you guys have posted and spinning some of my own ideas off of them. Ill post some pics in the spring when I put the nose and get the paint done on my car. Getting mighty chilly to be painting or outside working on the car in general

 

Looks pretty good! When will we see it in person?

 

Welp, It looks like mine is for sale if anyone is interested. I just bought another car...it's a sickness, I know...
Has the original flat head in it still. We ran it off a gas can. The car still needs work. Needs wiring, usual rust in the floor, It has a nice chop...If anyone is interested I'm asking $15k If you don't want the flat head I will gladly keep it and I will adjust the price...
(PM me please)
