It now has a black roof and trunk with lots of pin stripping. A new black leather interior has also been added. View attachment 3423717
I love those 80's pics. Man, all I wanted growing up was a custom Merc. Still hard to believe I have one, even though I had to wait until 2008. LOL
… Here’s a photo of my 1st car a 50 Merc Convert the photo was taken around Lafayette NY about 1956 by Ed Fish, I wonder if he is still around, I know the Merc isn’t. The Black Merc had a 2x2 Fenton, mild Cam nice pipes, 3-Spd overdrive, Louvered Hood.
Peckerhead, any info on this '51 Merc? I love the way the windshield is laid back, unless its an optical illusion...
I'm not sure if they have been posted on here before. If they have the Merc is kool enough to be posted again..
Pretty sure that's just stock 49/50 front guards and bar. The back of the bar has the cut out to clear the center grille piece that has been removed on this car. Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
That's what I thought but the ones I've found have the Mercury script in the bar and that ones smooth, I'm just trying to narrow down my search thank you though Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
I have guards with both , smooth and Mercury , and was wondering what the story was ? Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
The ones that have Mercury stamped in them I'm pretty sure are rear bars and the smooth are the front Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
My 50 doesn't have a bar in the front just the guards or a cut out for the center grill piece either. Don't know how to post a picture but will try.
