    saw this cool 40 merc made into a pickup at the roundup and couldn't stop staring at it,,,,does anyone know who owns it, and if it belongs to a HAMBer, is there a build thread on it? It gives me all kinds of crazy ideas and i need to find out more about it,,,,,,,,,,

    The car is built by Joe Hernandez from Tucson, Arizona. Not sure if he is a Hamber.

    I will pm you his email address.

    It was built from a 1939 four door Merc. Its nice.. but the top is not so nice.

    I saw it on E Bay last year and I was surprised it wasn't getting much action. I
    thought that it was very Kool, just wish that I was in a postion to buy it.

    Happy Trails,

    Can I ***ume you mean a '40 four door Merc, or maybe '39? Or did he really start with a '49?

    I like the top. It's like a little 40's Carson top but for a truck.

    I'm sure it was built so they would have plenty of head room. I would cut maybe two inches out of the bottom of the top. This would give it a better line.....

    As is, it is a very kool truck
