1950 Mercury starting my progect!

Thanks. I,m ready to get fired back up on my Merc now. Bring on the weekend!

 

A picture of my new son.

 

When I first saw the pics in the post I was so jealous! I read as far as ls1 and was about to back out of the thread quietly but I flipped to the last page instead for some reason.Motor looks killer and congrats on the son!!!!
348 or 409?

 

I,m glad I changed my mind on the motor too! Its a 348.

 

So cool the Hamb pulls thru again on parts I needed. Bought a rear bumper filler from fellow member " Ether" time to resume!! Thanks Ether!

 

Looks like a great classic custom. I'm in the middle of redoing a 50 that was done many years ago . It's an adventure for sure. your work looks great. Mine has a firebird clip, 400 Pont. subscribed BUCKD

 

Glad to help!!!! Now get back in there and build something!!!!

 

congrats on the new addition to the family

great work on the car .... keep it up

 

This weekend is Merc weekend!

 

Both inner and outer rockers replaced. Now that we are structurally strong again it's time to move on to doing the tin work in the trunk!

I want to see this thing shinny with that purty engine in it!!

 

Me to Matt. I can actually see the light flickering at the end of the tunnel. I'll be ready to come and see you soon for my stainless trim and window frame chopping. the paint is the easy part for me I do that all day everyday. I am looking forward to start putting some paint on this too.

 

Good to see it coming together, I still have a long way to go on mine...but I'm getting there...look forward to seeing it in paint.

 

Fitting up the motor and tranny!

Another kid means you have to build another car..........Hurry up and finish this one!
If ya gotta run a Chevy engine, you picked the right one. Just remember to carry a few spare pushrods....They don't like cold weather starts!

 

Looks incredible!

already hit my eyes open for my next build. Always gotta have a progect going. meaning toward a 39 Cadillac LaSalle coupe or a 36 Ford coupe. As far as cold weather starts guess I don't need to worry being that I live in Central California.
