    I was just enjoying a day off, and searching through some of my stored pics to clean the folders out a little, when I ran across I few shots I saved of this killer ride!

    So, as a Thanksgiving treat to y'all..I figgered I'd share a few shots of my favorite custom Merc to date!

    (I really dig the 52-54 Mercs, obviously!!)

    Hackster, I gotta agree with you.
    That is nice!

    What I mean is that the wheels are not tucked far enough into the fenders and scream FRAME SWAP.It is much more evident in other pics of the car and in person.The car still kicks *** as do all of D'Acostino and Zocchis efforts from the late 70s to the mid 80s(When they were still doing Mercs and Fords)

    YES! I agree. The *** end needs to be lowered too. Car has a bit of a rake. I also don't like the interior at all. The rest of the car (if anything is left) is gorgeous.
