  2. That's one odd looking Merc! Obviously it was a 4dr. No rear window? Will it be just for racing,or will you driving it on the streets too?

    its just for the street, not at all interested in taking it to the track. Under the rear plate, there is a camera and on the roll cage on the inside above the steering wheel is a 4 x 6 screen, it has really good vision also.

    if you cant see it, the plate says LOTAWRK

    First thing that I should say, I didn't steal your caps, so don't ask me what happen to
    them. Some one got lucky and it wasn't me.

    The new Whites look way too kool, and it does make a difference. Although I wish that
    you hadn't posted the pics, two weeks ago I just talked myself out of buying Bias ply
    for the Merc. Well Jerry, guess what I'm thinking about now. Bias ply / Radial thoughts
    have started again. Thanks LOL!!

    It is kool how that fender hugs the white wall, Your Merc looks Kick Ass kool!

    Happy Trails, Mick

    I'm glad that one of the Mercury bruthas is sleeping. I'm going to be restless tonight
    thinking over and over "gotta be lool like Jerry". LOL! I don't know if I have the room
    for them. This winter I plan on getting a couple of 15 x 6 wheels for the front to help
    with my width issue. For now I 'm going to just photo shop them on mine. Looks good
    Jerry.

    Happy Trails, Mick
