    I picked it up about 4 1/2 years ago from a guy in Orange County. It was flat black with some blue scallops. Gradually over the years been changing it up. List of stuff done includes disc brakes/dual MC, grenaded the stock rear end(on the way to Paso '06), replaced with a ford 8", hood came unlatched, hood destroyed, big dent in roof, replaced hood. Motor and tranny mounts bad, resulting in fan meeting with radiator (Paso '07). Installing lake pipes, then taking them off. I go between skirts and no skirts about 3 times a year.

    a few years back I really started to dig the 52-54 Lincoln taillights, and always liked the 55 Pontiac trim, too. So eventually those got put on. rear bumper rechromed....latest thing done is what I call invisible work. Making the hood and front fenders sit right, along with some work to to doors and getting some gaps to line up evenly. basically if you didn't know it was a problem before, you'd never know those problems existed. Most all of the work was done by my friends(and fellow club members from The Autoholics) at Starlite Rod and Kustom in Torrance, CA

    Well its not a merc,but my plate says it is. Does that count? Bad bob was your car chopped local, and if so are they still doing them? I really like the look of your roof line. Perfect.

    Email me a picture of your Merc and I'll post it for you.
    HAMBers need to see it.

    Happy Trails,
