The original!

 

I still have that magazine. Thanks for posting the cover, kool memories...

 

You're welcome! My mers in there too! A little write up with Phil Sauer the former owner.

 

You are Blessed to own a Merc with kool history. It has been a long time since I've seen the issue. Now I'm going to have to dig it out. Lol!

 

Thanks. It's finally running with a 331 Hemi and sits a little higher now then it did when those pic's were taken in the 50's.

 

Love the patina!!!!!

 

NYC Coliseum late 70's early 80's ...(still working with best way to capture these 35mm slides)

 

David Lee Roth’s was a 4 door
And there’s build photos showing them laying it on a 70’s chassis

 

Thanks for sharing the build pics. Kool proof Four doors can be kool.

 

This was cool to watch

 

Looking pretty clear so far once you blow up the pic

 

Pic from 83. Harold`s was a 4-dr. Then purchased and the chassis swap before being used in the video. Done by Dick Dean. Dick`s kid Keith cloned it into a 2-dr version. That`s Custom Mike driving it that`s posted above. The photographer.

 

Every year that I've attended the Spectacular since it has been in Salina, I've passed on the parade they do on Thursday night. I just sit at our spot and watch the cars roll by. Mitch and his son went on the long bike ride with the Spoketacular folks, so while they were gone I sat and took it all in.
I saw this Merc in the parade, but I never found it in the show. I've been watching all the threads going on with pictures from the show and I've yet to see any more on it. Anybody that was there have more pics? Like I mentioned in another thread this morning, sometimes I miss a lot! E

 

Dusty Hill's Merc. RIP

 

Thanks for posting the picture. Kool to see you didn't see it at the show. I didn't see this Merc.

 

This merc was at street side classics for awhile and not too long ago he must of just gotten it

 

Good God, that's beautiful! I like my Mercs smooth and simple.

 

I saw it Thursday night at Braum`s. He had about 5 kids with him. They were getting Ice Cream. Never saw it after that.
