DaFonz Mercury for sale in sweden

what did you send us

 

and jodi by the way I got my fathers original leather jacket back

 

that great its back where it sould be

 

I don't recall getting any messages from you. I do check that email - it's my only email account. I might have deleted it thinking it was spam.

 

yes its back where it should be and im very happy to have it back now if i can get the car that would be great but not likely but i will keep trying

 

Debbie and Donna,

I sent You both a Mail telling a little about me and how i got the car and how i feel for it and a pic taken last summer.

 

That's Great Donna.....i Feel Much Better, Something Was Not Sitting Right That You Did Not Have It.
I Just Watched The Video Of Joe...it Made Me Smile, That Is So Him. I Loved When He Was Talking About The Car And People Would Ask Him If There Was Metal Under There And He Said"yea Theres Metal Under There, Do You Want Me To Show You...i'll Rip It Off Right Now". He Was The Best!!!

 

We were a little influenced by the Fonze . Sawed up a 50 merc , after watching what Joe did all those years . That Flamethrower contest on the rt 3 service road [Rutherford Cops Closed it }at Lead East was the greatest . Joe Sulpi Blew his engine doing burnouts and the Fonze won the flamethrower contest . The reason I never get to the US Nationals .

 

Here is an older magazine on the Fonz!

Ron,

Graduated from BSU and still live pretty local to the area.

In your photo albums we have a lot of the same photos from the same events. We have probably ran into each other and didn't know it.

 

My latest event coverage is sort of related to this thread... http://youtube.com/watch?v=j-0PG62kiaM

 

The car was seen in sweden this past weekend at wheels national 2007

I saw that car win the Lead East Flamethrower contest in 1989 on the route 3 service road in Rutherford , NJ

your car is very nice it reminds me of my fathers and there is not that many that do and about my fathers ashes he always said he would want them spread out at a car show and of course lead east that was one car show he looked forward to every year so atleast he is still part of lead east in spirit and in memory

 

this thread can go on forever.

that would rock.

 

hey donna, where are you located? email me at unionvillehaunt@verizon.net

i p*** thru middletown area a lot, maybe we can meetup and i can scan some pics of your dads cars if you have any. i love his mercs a ton.

 

Hose clamps on sectioned intestines- That's tough. Ripper thread, & sad to hear of the Fonz's p***ing. Obviously a much admired bloke.

 

Right onn!!!thats a good girl standin up for your pop.I seen this merc in lots of old magazines way back when and it was one of the coolest cars I ever seen in those days.Thats how we like em "DOWN and DIRTY" other people probably cant stand that there car will never be as kool as the FONZ Merc.God Bless!

 

First time I've seen this or heard of him. Donna, it's obvious that he was well loved by his contemporaries. Not everyone on a forum of this size will have the perspective necessary to even get what he was doing. To you young guys trying to figure out the history thing, keep in mind that back then there was hardly anyone building '49-51 anything so give him credit for never losing the faith. His vision was obviously an over-the-top cartoon version. Isn't hot rodding about being politically incorrect? Used to be anyway.

 

I thought they were talking about this guy.

 

Dunno, just bumping this, came up in conversation elsewhere..
