Well this is the start of a life long dream for me. Finally found my dream car. I bought a 1950 mercury 4 door sedan from a guy in minnesota. It has no engine, transmission or ***le. I wrench for a living and now I'm going wrench for myself for once. Considering that when the car was built 45 years before I was born I might need some advise on the "how to."
I'm a Mercury Guy too. I have several 51 Sport Sedans. Follow the Mercury builds and you'll pick up a lot of ideas. If you use the Mercury search in the general discussion you can track all the new ones. Always good to have another Merc Guy on the HAMB.
