The Merc runs for the first time in 40 years.

There should be some kind of award for those who accomplish what you did with that car. I remember when you first got it and my prognosis was for a stalled project soon after you started. My bad, your pulling off a "raised from the dead" on this one.
I also like it with no chop. I don't think EVERY Merc needs to be chopped I'm confident you could pull one off with a stock top that would rule.

nice! Glad to see her rolling once again. Great job on the metal too, I really like the front.

Keep up the good work!

 

great work on that hood,i would have gave up a long time ago

 

Now that is inspiring! That looks awesome!! One question, where did you get the fibergalss cowl that goes in between he radiator and the hood support?

 

Pro!

 

Great work bringing her back. I vote for no chop, it as a cool stance just as it is. Almost inspirational, but I'll lie now and maybe it will p***.

 

any pics on the rocker rebuild?

 

Crazy ****er! Looks good man.

 

wow! if i had a garage i'd ask you to trade.
somehow i doubt you would.

(my hotrod just barely fits inside an oversized shed i have in the backyard.)

Nice work! If it were me...I wouldn't do the paint and body just yet. I would cruise it like that for a while, just so people could see how far it has come along.

 

4" front post . Five and one half inches in the other end.
New Year's chop party.


P.S.
Nice dash kid.

 

EXCELLENT!! i love it, man.

 

It's great to see somebody with talent get their hands on a car like this. Great job!

 

sometimes you want to rip your hair out when you do that much patching. my favorite part is when you get the first coat of primer on the car, and you kinda forget ALL THE METAL WORK YOU HAD TO DO!! GREAT JOB SAVED ANOTHER ONE.

 

This makes that shoebox from a few years ago look like a peice of cake.

 

Impressive work. And quick. Not much more to say.

Definitely chop it too.

 

Nice man! i bet you felt like a million bucks driving it

 

Holy F#@k a whole lot of metal work..Damn...looking good! Good luck with the chop!

 

looks great. love the steering wheel and column.

 

You nailed it with that grille, very nice job!!!

 

Excellent!!

 

Congrats man. She is looking good!

 

Nice work man. You make me feel lazy.
