  2. What are your plans,Tommy? I'd say,get it running and enjoy it while you work on it...I don't know if you are attatched to that top,but the ones the Dick Deans son makes look much better in the back. Check out Wise Guy's Merc...

    Not sure this one counts just yet, but it is a Mercury. Can't help that is looks a LOT like a Ford. There is a cruel difference between a '48 and a '49....

  21. This isn't by invite. All you need is a Merc and have something to add to the group. Tech,help,info,parts sources,build pic's,etc!
    You're the second '46.

    Does the 3/4 scale MiniMerc or the future phantom MiniMerc Wagon qualify? :D

    Well, it is cut up, barn ornament. Long story, Divorce....:rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Been collecting parts for the new MiniMerc Phantom Wagon for a while. Will share pix after I begin cutting later this year I hope.

    There's three pages of the three stages of the MiniMerc buildup is on my website www.Customikes.com/MiniMerc

    Not sure that I won't be banished if I tell you what I started with :D

    No that is not me in the pictures but the Merc behind it is the "Cool51"

    Here's a couple of more pix for you.

    thanks Mike

  26. It's cool! I went to your site and read that it was made from a Volvo. Still like it!!!!!! Great ingenuity...Don't care for the tailights though...Little over the top.

    Thanks Bad Bob.

    I agree on the light but at the time its what I had when I cut the qtr's.

    I drove/ commuted to work with it thru most of the mods so I needed tail lights to go home and then did not go back and change them.

    Then before I knew it, I was running out of time before the roadster show

    You know how it goes sometime...;)

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Whole bunch of Amazons were customized here in Finland in the eighties & nineties. Not much real Mercs here then...
