Here's what I have planned for mine when the car gets running again.
I have dealt with them before as well. I had Kris restore two steering wheels for me. Although I did have to wait for a long time (~6 months) to...
Matt, I think you need to pursue making rockers. I'm in need of some too and I'm getting tired of waiting on Mike Stude to make some.
Unfortunately, those you mention from ebay are only partial rocker assemblies and not the full assembly that I am looking for (front, top and sides).
I was quoted $350 for the pair (2-door). That's half the price as those on ebay.
I have seen those, but they are twice the price as Green Mountain. How was the quality of the ones you purchased on ebay?
I'm still needing a pair. Certainly there are more Mercury owners out there that also need a new pair of rockers.
Btt

I'm also interested in disc brakes up front for my 1950 Mercury. Here is a picture of my current front set-up. My car is dropped in the front,...

Can you explain after you tack weld in the filler piece what your process is. I'm new to this and wanting to learn from someone who makes the...
Not sure I know what you mean by the wind lace. The order I removed my dash was: 1) remove the internal window trim around the windshield. 2)...
Be sure to use a sturdy string because what I encountered was the string breaking half way through the column because the wire was getting jammed...
Here's my 50 merc in progress. I initially wanted to have it chopped, but knowing that it is unchopped adds to its rarity and has really grown on me.
Here you go. Enjoy! http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=192705
I know I can't offer any advice, but my 50 merc has a 302 with a C4 transmission. The way the engine was mounted appears to be homemade from the...
Those gauges look awesome in there!
So I bit the bullet and bought a MIG welder (I'll blame that one on MIKES51). I'm still waiting on the 19 gauge sheet metal I ordered to start...
I love chrome and getting newly chromed pieces back from the chrome plater is always an exciting day. Good thing there's a little wait time...
This last weekend I put my dash back together again after being dissassembled for 8 months getting gauges reworked and pieces re-chromed. I also...
Here are some small, but tiny steps forward. Two weekends ago I cleaned up the tranny cover by chiseling the tarlike factory sound deadening...
