just got a '53 mercury

Just picked up a '53 merc. All there except motor and trans. Thinking about a T.P.I and a 700r 4 trans. I already have the engine. Any tips from you guys would be great.

 

Howdy from Texas. There's plenty of great info around here that would be helpful for you. Sounds like a great project.

 

Got a 53 ford Vic, love those body styles, welcome.

 

I never cared much for the body style

Welcome aboard,, What body style on the Merc?

 

Previous owner started to make a merc clone. Title says a 53 mainline.

I always liked the 49-50 and the 56

I was jesting about the body style as you can see in my avatar.. Gotta admit the 49-50 and the 56 are all three icons of the badge..

A 50 Tudor would probably be my second lust.
