    I found this 1940 Merc here on Hamb a few months back..well my son and.i finally cracked it open..
    It has its share of rot/rust but having been down this path is very familiar territory for us. We try to hit it every Saturday, so here are like 5 days worth.So here a few pics of the progress,enjoy..first pic is of car.leaving its Iowa home heading to So Cal.

    I Noticed you got rid of the rear end and suspension I am in the process of doing the same thing to 1940 mercury coupe I recently purchased. What rear end are you installing on your merc? Thanks
