Projects 1954 mercury sun valley

the roof is just about finished. he still has some work on the package tray and some trim work but I think it looks amazing.

 

There's a lot going on to make that rear window work. I love the look and it appears to be top notch craftsmanship, just kinda surprised to see how this one is being done and curious to know how the rear window gl*** seal is going to work out.

 

is this going to be urethane 'up under' the roofline or is there a trick you have thought up to use a gasket--that metal work is beautiful!!

 

the rear window will use urathane and be glued in.

 

I went down to the shop on friday and started stripping paint. I am going to run the car in bare metal for a while.

 

That looks pretty great. Nicely done.

 

This was Fridays progress. I am headed back tomorrow. To hopefully finish stripping the paint and do a little under carriage work.

 

Nice metal work.
Cars looking great!

 

well the paint is basically all off. a few more patch panels and the car is coming home. it will be in the booth for camellia city rod and custom at the grand national roadster show.

 

well I took the car to the grand national it got a lot of positive comments. and the show was great.

 

Love this thread, your Merc is perfect.

Beautifully executed, and in good aesthetic design. I can say I've derived lots of motivation on my Monarch from your thread!

Looking good!!
