@Ryan Hey Boss, you're slipping lately. Here you are, featuring a car with MII suspension, zip ties on the wiring, AND a car duster in the trunk. Seriously, WTF? Actually, I love everything about this car...except that I don't own it. Given the right set of circumstances, I don't think that the ask is too far out of bounds. I am solidly in the hotrod camp (even though I do own a custom Merc), but this car just hits all the right spots. Well done.
Beautiful car. Could never be built today for the asking price. Just fix the AC and "off you go". However, I have a gut feeling that the market for these era customs is fading.
The seller seems to be on HAMB solely to sell vehicles. That's his right, of course, but I like it better when a seller is kinda participating in the forum community as well.
The market for customs with out some giant provenance is pretty much nil regardless of era and has been for a long looooooooooooooooong time.
A nicely executed '40 Merc Custom ... and for some unknown reason, I really dig the choice of engine :
