Projects Bought a Mercury on purpose

Local friction shop rebuild. $105.

several years ago, an older hot rod guy gave me a beater 51 merc. Rotted with the rear axle ripped out like in American Graffiti. Had the correct core clutch parts. Amd a std merc flatty
thanks Ralph.
Miss that guy.

 

I'm surmising you must have quite the Backyard collection.

 

A got a few
Came in handy. For the SBC to flathead I had an adapter I bought for $50 over 10 years ago for the heck of it.
Had the correct SBC FW and correct clutch pieces in my junk yard plus a few 3 bolt starters.
Found a nos pilot bushing adapter for $15.
so when I get a new TO bearing I’ll still be under $200 for the swap.
Not bad

 

someone just made the 'maxwell smart' comment about something else-fits here(yes,pun intended)
