Here's some more pics of the Merc at the Yokohama show on setup day, including the show board. It was very nice, pretty sure it won the top prize at the show.

Interesting to see in the show board all the changes in the last few years

Sorry to @Tman and others who liked the IROC wheels. This will be the last set of radials the car has while I own it, but at least they are better than what was on it. I can’t deal with stuff like chrome mods or Camaro wheels on what will be a traditional custom.

Looks like those panels might be handmade on an English wheel?

More than likely.
To get a sail panel that clean usually means making a new panel

the area underneath it could use some attention

Here you go Bret @bchrismer and Larry @winduptoy This is the car Bret is talking about. Neat car but not the same as a custom Merc.

Was just watching a video of the Mooneye's show in Japan and caught this car... I really like the chop on it. And, I really need to get to work on this someday... Anyone know any details on this car?
