Customs The Kirkegaard Merc, 1939 early style custom

man, you're crazy! but that quality makes the best people! tell you what you got some balls hacking in to a nice, clean car like that. i couldn't do it myself.

by the way, nice hubcap collection.

 

It takes a real man, to chop one!!

The nicer it is from the start, the better it could be............


Those 40 grilles are hard to get, isnt there any repro on the market anymore?

Rik Hoving.....The custom master, have made a fantastic Book

I know the work you did put into this is huge, you just keep working and working to have all details right

Should be on every custom lovers shelf for Christmas

Congratulation ....Rik!

 

My friend Palle will take The jack Stewart to The Grand National Roadster Show in January

Rik and Palle will take Books with the car and it will be possible to have the book signed there

And John Buck have accepted the 39 mercury at The Grand National Roadster Show in January too


So i have to admit this it is ´wild for a Danish guy to be there with a car

I do not think there have ever been a Dane there before, and now there will be 2 Danish cars , and Rik with the book, this is BIG for us

We are very exited

Looking forward to meet you there!

 

The three of you (oh, and you too Sledge) had better practice your hand-shaking and signature-signing before GNRS as you will get a workout!

See you all there!

Well deserved for all of you guys...hard work is payin back big time..plus the history and tradition will keep going as it should be....cant be better than this!!

 

Pretty cool to have two Danish owned customs in the Grand National Roadster Show!
I am sure that there will be lots of interest in both cars.

 

Should be a great show!

 

Very badass!

 

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. My computer crashed and I lost a lot of good in progress photos! Anyway, the roof is getting close to being done. I've got most everything welded and started metalfinishing the passenger side. Also I've been working on the stainless so I'll post some pics of that soon.

 

That is lovely.
Are those the stock rear lights? Mad looking things!

 

Thanks James, yeah the stock tail lights are great!

 

Very Very nice Sledge !

 

Perfect!

 

The roof is looking great, well done.

 

Real nice metalwork, just love it

scandinavian merc´s rule

 

Factory custom right there...great proportions...keep it up Kev!!

 

tell you what just an observation here, take those tailights and graft them into the body a little more. not to much, just a little.

 

gott damn! That looks great. Just conservative haircut...and with the stock tail lights...it's gonna be perfect!

 

That's just a perfect haircut! very nice !

 

From one of the ugliest roof lines ever to one of the sexiest!!! Amazing sir!

 

Wow! again.
After seeing the stock tail-lights with the round reflector, I like the idea of the Lincoln buttons even more! The era should be about right.. Just a thought.

Impressive car for sure!

Dave

 

thanks for the update...perfect roof cut. cant wait to see it painted!

Kevan grab your rifle..i see some deers in your garden! its food!

-palle

 

Hey Kevan, that's some damn impressive metal work. It''s almost a shame to paint over it.

Paul.

 

Looking really good Kevan! This is going to be a great car. I love the concept and the execution is top notch.

 

Bitchin!!!

 

Kevan....what can I say? Tim's car is looking absolutely incredible, you should have been on Mercury's payroll from day one.
Tim, I think you may set some tongues wagging when you roll up at the GNRS.

I can't stop staring at the car it is perfect. Well done

 

Yes Nifty, it does not get much better rolling of Kevans assembly line

I smile every night i fall to sleep
