Customs New more door Merc.

I just picked up a 51 moredoor.Good running and almost rust free original paint and interior.The only thing it needs is the rear window taken out and re-sealed.Does anyone know were I can get the seals and a good gl*** shop in the Inland Empire/SO-CAL.THank you.Greg

 

That was my first car. Congrats. Hope you have as much fun with it as I did.

 

Nice Merc, looks like mine when I got it many moos ago. Try www.restorationspecialties.com and dennis carpenter for rubber.

 

Wow that's a pretty ol' Merc! Used to be plenty of them around back in the '80s...where are they now? Rescued, I hope.

 

Thanks for the info and compliments.I wanted one to drive while I work on my other one.

 

How nice.Reminds me of my 1st merc !

 

It's been sitting for about a year.I just need to change all the fluids and make sure everything is safe.

 

WOW ! that is nice to drive one while you work on the other..

 

Jerk!

 

my old man had one, had it repainted, rebilt flathead, new interior, he would have gave it to me but had no garage to put it in

 

Jeff.Thanks.

 

C and G Early Ford Parts in Escondido has the rubber: (760)740-2400, and call Paul's All Pro Gl***- he is mobile: (760)403-2438 or (562)972-2084. He installs gl*** for Winfield, John D'Agostino, Bill Hines, and most of the other old guys...he's been doing gl*** since '62. He's quick and reasonable and just did the gl*** on my friend's chopped '40 Merc.

 

Thank you.

 

Gotta love those Mordoor Mercs!

 

Very nice, and the rare rear bumper too.

 

So are you goin to sell the 51 after you get done with your other one ?

 

Did you find it at the playground??

 

I haven't thought that far ahead.It might take me awhile to get my 2 door done. The way my work situation is right now.I sold my 29 non running coupe project to pay for this.

 

Playground?

 

Just wondering.. what is different about the rear bumper? I've got several like that..

Brian

 

That'd be my question too.

Neat car, I'd like one of those front bumper guards like that for my '51 coupe.

 

i saw that thing somewhere and the price wasnt bad!! give my buddy a call for the gl*** stuff he is right here by me in riverside 789-8870 his names Carson (Street Rod Gl***) we will have to race the 4doors Greg!!!

 

Your on.If one of us gets our doors blown off.We have a couple extra ones.LOL!Thanks for the info on the gl***.

 

It is a rare one year only design.

 

nice car man .Have fun with it .theres a place called rubber the right way that would have it just order my carpet threw them good service.Let me know what else you need i Might have it.

 

Nice score

 

Paulie boy 13.The width on center piece for the rear bumper guard in front is 17 7/8 in,it tapers in the back and that is 17 in.Depth in the center front to back is 4 in and depth on the sides front to back is 3 in.Height is about 2 inches.I hope this helps.

 

That's really Nice!!! Are those REAL spots? Shouldn't take much to get it driving...

 

Bob.Thanks.The spotlight on the car doesn't fit quite right or work.The previous owner stuck it on there just to fill the hole in.I'd like to find an Appleton.The car runs good.Starts a little hard with the 6 volt.I just need to change the fluids and check everything over.Work the bugs out.

 

thanks man I appreciate you taking the time. that helps me out a lot! Enjoy the Merc!!
