Very cools stuff! Thanks for posting them!

I think I remember the 3 window from another posts pics now that I see it again. (it might have been one of those glass vs. steel posts IIRC)

Good looking rides man!

Wow, just noticed the plates on your 32...I almost got that for my 32 when I was trying to decide between antique or personalized plates. I went with the antique because they are good for four years and no inspection and because "evil" really did not work for my little ray of sunshine colored car...gold and evil don't really work do they? http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It could have been.
It's been a while since i posted the 32.
The last one i think was the glass-vs-steel one..

The plate was an after thought.
I tried to get "Hellbent", but they wouldn't give it to me because it said "hell"...go figure.

I had a guy come up to me at the Syracuse nats a few years ago and said he was gonna have nightmares of it because to him it looked evil.. it was simple, and wasn't taken yet so i just went with that one instead

Thanks a lot!!
Now,
How about you post a pic of that merc for me now????
I LOVE Mercs!
And that one looks 'tight'!

I love the contrast between your '33 and the late model p/u behind it.

Ughhh, I can't get the second picture to work...sorry.

I had a file error issue and bad CD drive I had to deal with last week and it messed up alot of my pic files.

I've been looking at the one you posted since it came up.

Your Merc is KICKASS! A damn nice example of an unchopped merc.

Yeah i know...
When i built the 32, i wanted to get it in some sort of paint, so i had tinted urathane primer mixed in black..
that was back in '99.
After i did it, i just left it alone. It was going to be gloss black. I painted the motor, rear end, chassis etc in the body color, to at least they shine. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The truck was rattle canned when i got it, so i just keep applying coats when needed.
I'm not sure what i'm going to do with it when i tear it down..

The 53 i'm doing is going to be a color though...still undecided on gloss or not, but it won't be flat black..LOL

Tony,
You could always do a flat color on the bottom and a shiny white on top. Could be the best of both worlds http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif
