WOW! Good to see all these old kustoms again. Someone did some fantastic bodywork on this one and it sure looks good!
For many years, I ran a tube grille in it over the Edsel and roll pan setup. I welded the three pieces of the chrome piece that surrounds the...
The Merc is practically a bolt in. The Desoto will probably require some body work and bracket fabrication. Nothing major, and well worth the...
'59 Merc over '57 DeSoto.
Hey Fadingfastsd, look to that great looking green and silver car for clues. It is really nice looking . I was in high school a little later (...

Use the H.A.M.B. search, because there was a thread on here, a while back, about just such a unit. As best as I can remember, the unit was larger...

Sometimes it may really be cheaper to keep her!
10,575 of those were built with choice of 215cid 6-cyl or 239cid flathead V-8. How many remain? Who knows, but probably less than a regular car...
Give us some more details! How and where did you find the car and what did the seller say about it?
Love it or hate it, that car is a surviving show kustom of a bygone era. How can you be arrogant enough to say something like that?
Yep, I'm with you on that. Mine is on 9 acres and it is PAID FOR...no bankers breathin' down my neck. Tried that stick built deal in a...
Oh yeah...and Virginia too. Gotta be God's country!:)

Don't know about a '56, but I used a stock '66 Fairlane speedo cable on my '59. Just guessing, but I think the '56 and '59 would have the same input.

Ok, you let the cat outa the sack, so I'll say what Ive seen done that will work better than a sbc. SBF works better because it is narrower...
