Go man go!! Car looks good--wiring makes me nervous. You should be ready to roll for the summer. Tell that son of yours "thanks for your service". Good luck
Yo Mingo! OUTSTANDING, man! I can't wait to see what you do with the interior trim! Awesome car. You didn't tell me you've been working on this thing for almost ten years years! I thought you just picked it up! As a vet myself, I know what it is to do a thankless job in order to protect the ones you love. Please tell your son thank you for his service, and that he IS appreciated.
my first day on this post,ragtopbuick66 toll me about this web and i like it. see ya in the road. Mingo
Thank you Neil i will give him the message, He is an army MP drill sargent now. I all ready have some ideas for the trim.is going to look good,
LOLOL, hey Jones..! He wasn't on here until a few days ago! You KNOW Mingo, and you KNOW he's been building this Merc, and you never steered him toward the H.A.M.B.?!? I told him about a couple other 50 Merc threads I had come across and he hadn't ever heard of the Hokey Board!
BTW Mingo, I'm digging the color. That is just awesome. YOU, sir, are building my dream car, almost exactly as I would build it myself. Like I said, it is my pleaseure to help, even if I never get to drive it.
Very cool.....that is the best looking Merc 4 door I have ever seen! Perfect stance and chop. Keep the pics coming.
you should swing down to the shop agin and see the cars we made some progress since the last time you were down...jones
Looking forward to seeing it on the road. keep up the good work and thank you son for his service. Happy Trails, Mick
Cool one!!! Same as the one that I got here in PR. I just started to trim the trunk to begin with the installation of the air system.
