    This is my 1954 Mercury, its my first shot at a somewhat traditional mild Kustom, 55 pontiac nose, 56 chevy bumper. Shaved door handles, frenched lights, candy lace roof. I wish I could afford to chrome the bumpers but that is not ij the cards for now, took it to my local Cars and Coffee for its maiden voyage.

    No under-hood shots just yet, its still ugly in there lol, its a Ford 289 and C4 auto, interior was pretty much done when I got it, I added some functioning gauges after I ran out of gas (the second time lol) please excuse the barn dust and the ugly radio and A/C condenser, Its hot in Florida and I cant afford the vintage air kit just yet lol. 20251116_151122.jpg 20251116_151107.jpg 20251116_151134.jpg 20251116_151148.jpg 20251116_151215.jpg 20251116_151210.jpg 20251116_151103.jpg 20251116_151226.jpg
