The oil pressure switch comes with a normally-closed contact as well as the normally-open contact. The normally-closed can be connected to...
There's a joke in there somewhere.
You would know if it was a 51 ring. The 51 rings sort of recess the headlight as if it were frenched. Is the car converted to 12V? The bulbs...
You have my condolences. I hear 93 years and think of all the "firsts" she got to see, truly amazing. She must have been a tough cookie. God...
God must have needed an extra special angel. My mom lost my brother after only a couple of days. It stayed with her the rest of her life. She...
Not being a wiseguy, but I already knew that much. I need to know which one lands where.
That would keep you from having to do anything with the valve stems.
If you had the right stance and wheelwell openings, or skirts you could make a mount off the backplate or axle tube that would come up over the...
I have a 1957 Mercury horn relay that is not marked for connections. It has three terminals. When mounted on the firewall, one terminal is on...
I hope you are ready for the self-appointed traditional hot rod police. I personally wouldn't want them, but appreciate your effort. It is...
What he said, but the more you spin the tranny not knowing, the more damage you could do.
You pulled the best engine. Mercs are supposed to be low and slow, and there's just something about the sound of a flathead. I'm doing a 700r4...
Not to hijack, but what glue to use with polystyrene? Thanks.
I'm amazed at how many opinion posts there are. You are always going to find varying opinions,and what,you just go with the popular vote on your...
Did you contact him and ask him about what documentation he has as proof? Where did you see it online? It might be fun if we bombard him with...
You're shittin' us. All this time and no 51 convertible?
Actually one of the rules is no ebay listings. I got spanked for it once. I was only putting up the link so people could see the pics. I wasn't...
Can anyone date the blue oval stop light? I have one very similar. It is a Beacon light, but the lense is a little more plain. I was just...
Thanks for the reply. It didn't look like there could be any interference, but I wanted to be sure. It looks like the knob is just about the...
Nice looking merc. I love the under dash treatment. What tranny/shifter are you running? How close does it come to the dash and does it reach...
Hi Dave. Workin' on your merc these days? Your office looks great by the way. I'm still working to get everything buttoned up on the tranny...
I didn't see it on Barrett Jackson, but saw it on the auction site that everybody avoids saying on this site. I contacted the owner thinking he...
Thanks. This would put the total number at 301615. It's interesting because it contradicts all the other numbers I have seen.
Are these numbers for 1950 mercs only? Where is this info from? These numbers would make 1950 mercury production higher than I've even seen.
Already on it. If I hear anything, I'll update the thread.
A merc lover's candy store.
FordImages owns the picture. Their site is good for old photos. I can't say I'd pay what they are asking, but good for looking....
What makes you say that? Mine was built in St. Louis.
I know this is probably a long shot and it is only to satisfy my curiosity, but does anybody know where this photo was taken? I have seen other...
