I just purchased this car from a man in South Carolina, it's a chopped and modified 1951 Mercury lead sled.
Oct 06
Currently Merkula is mostly in bare metal, and not in primer yet. So the car looks like total ass. Hopefully I will have it back in the next 30 days. It will be black.
N/A
Frenched headlights, '59 Caddy taillights, Brizo bumpers, roof chopped 3.5 inches, shaved door handles
Tweed monster struck again
SBC engine, TH350 trans
I don't know yet
SBC/ TH350
N/A
Rechrome grille, and find some factory bumpers... maybe go to wide whitewalls.

Very nice ride,,,, just wanted to let you know I rated your car ..15 stars for ya
McMerc is ready for paint. Plan it to repaint the car gloss black, no flames. The '37 Desoto bumpers will be removed, and an original '50 front will get fitted, and a '51 rear will be fitted. Car will also receive a set of 3" wide white walls,
It dosen' t get any cooler that that!
I wonder if I should put an LS-something in there.. 10.9's sound kinda cool.
Gotta love those ole stuff
smoooth.
Lakes plugs,moons,flames,chopped, could anything else be so "nifty".
Nice historic ride hope it's runnin a flatty.
