What?
Stupid question, but do I put the car in neutral and do I turn the crank pulley bolt clockwise or counterclockwise to tighten the bolt? Thanks
Thanks guys! How long should I leave the mystery oil in before I try turning it?

Hey fellas, I’ve been searching the internet but can’t seem to find the recorder for my data / vin plate. Could any of you please decode this for...
Anyone have a 51 coupe like this they want to get rid of?
Nice merc! Thanks but that’s too nice, I’m looking for something a little crusty haha
I think that’s a different one. He had that at Pomona last year asking $85k for it. It looks almost the same but the patina on it wasn’t as bad as...
Anyone?
Hey guys and gals, I need your help tracking down this 51 Merc. It was sold around 2018 from Temperance Michigan. If anyone knows the owner now...

Well I’m sad to say it has to go. I was laid off last week due to the corona. Here’s what you get a solid as a rock 1940 Mercury. 1939 99a engine...
I actually like to unbolt the A arm from the crossmember. Only two bolts and you can release the tension from there with a jack. Either way I just...
So I normally use the Aerostar springs to lower the front of my 49-51 Mercury’s my thought was since the Aerostar spring is so much shorter...
Sorry 6.70x15
Sorry it’s a stock 51 non OD rear so I believe that’s a 3.92 gear and tires are 6.70’s
I know someone has the answer so I figured I’d ask. I have a 51 Mercury with a 1971 mustang 302 and C4 trans. What speedo gear do I need to get my...
It’s not painted yet. That’s just the metal work of the chop. Paint will come someday and I’m not broke haha
