    Looks good so far. Is that orange color around the windshield the color you're planning for the car?

    Looks like a pretty nice shop, too!
     
  3. Looks great. How's the Chevy coming along? And the Darrin? :eek: You've got too many projects. I've been doing a little bit on the top of the '50 I bought from you when it's warm enough out. The garage it's in isn't heated so not a great time of year for it.:rolleyes: I'll have to come see you in the spring when I put a new chassis in it for advise.

  4. i've been collecting parts for the 36 chev and now have enough to start on it. it will be next winters project.
    the 54 darrin is in at the fiberglass shop on the south side getting a few body repairs done. it will be back in a couple months.
    i'm about a day away from firing up the merc for the first time. just a few more wires to conect.
    lets get together somtime.
    the merc will be painted sherbert pearl (ppg) base clear

    I was wondering about you the other day. I guess that I've missed the past
    updates. Merc is looking good and I cannot wait to see it on the road.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    Lookin good as usual !! Any chance ya know of or have a 51 4 door shell thats available Ray?I am movin to Red Deer as soon as the house sells ,and I brought my rotten beyond help 51 Monarch coupe out in sept,and am thinkin it will be easier to salvage it with a better 4 door shell,even a 49 or 50 would do. I will also be lookin for some 51 monarch grill pieces.Its gonna be a full custom chopped GM frame etc but I want to try and keep the Monarch identity.
