Hello Everyone, I'm about to begin putting my '51 Mercury back together. I bought it without an engine or transmission, and some areas had already been disassembled. I'm putting a Flathead back in it. I'm looking for pictures of a stock Mercury '49-'51 so I can see the firewall (inside and outside), and how things were laid out. I'm also looking for pictures of how the master cylinder, brake pedal, gas pedal, etc were installed. If you have any to share, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Joe
Here's a couple I have on hand. I have a few more, but can't find them on my hard drive at the moment. :/
Quick bump.... Still looking for good underhood pics of the firewall from a Merc with Flathead, or under floor around master cylinder
What specifically are you needing to see? Just the firewall in general and how all the stuff goes back together, or something specific? I might be able to dig up some more on specific stuff if you need it. I have had to redo the entire firewall on mine, so have been collecting pics as I find them for reference.
I'll be putting mine back together in the near future, and I didn't take it apart. Pictures showing where everything is located would help. I'm trying to collect pictures for reference also.
I'll tell you where a lot of mine have come from and that is ads for Mercs for sale. I get em off ebay, the HAMB or anyplace I might be cruising classifieds. Any time I see good reference pics of stock Merc engine compartments (and nice custom ones, too), I copy them. I have also picked up good pics off of build threads here on the HAMB. I'll see what else I can dig up that might be of help.
