pics of 49-51 merc 4 door chopped

Absolutely gorgious!

 

Thanks. Here's mine

 

An old Pic of mine,

 

Wow.....nicely done! How many inches chopped is that?

 

very nice!

 

MercManMario - I think it was 3 1/2" at the front & ending up with around 5 at the back. We notched the upper A pillar to lay down the roof so top of the front doors ran parallel to the bottom of the window opening & also dropped the back enough so that the rear of the back door window did not extend into the C pillar (shortening the length of the rear door window). After we did this we realized that we had to cut & drop the upper flange of the windshield to get glass to fit. (because of piecut at the A pillar).

 

Here's the one I'm selling.

 

Oh wow...sounds like some work for sure. Great info though, as i begin the endeavor in the upcoming weeks. You wouldn't have any pictures of your chop procedure, would ya?

 

Thats been for sale forever, eh?

 

This is the only pic I have of my buddy Jeff's car.....but she's a beauty with a full house flatty, and a fabulous interior....very classy ride.......

 

Paucho, your friends black merc is killer!

Here are a couple more pics

.

 

MercManMario - I've got a bunch of build pics, I gotta download from my laptop. Then I'll put them on here.

 

A guy I work with has a nicely chopped 4 dr 50 Merc, and he's turning it into an electric car with a huge electric motor .....He sold off all the flathead running gear to fund the project.....He's a real nice guy, but it's driving me nuts to see this......on the other hand, I wanna be there for the maiden voyage to witness this little chunk of history......I'll be sure to take lots of pix.........

 

Merc Man Mario, Here are some pic's f/ '03. Sorry they took so long.

 

VERY NICE! Thanks a lot for remembering! I am chugging along with mine. One side of the back window is all tacked in and i'll be starting the other side next weekend. I tried to this past sunday and struck one arc........then ran out of argon
