    It was on e-bay a couple months ago...way outta my price range...but I LOVE this car!!

     

  5. '54 close enough FED? Here's a shot of mine.

    I never get tired of looking at this car!!

    I really dig 52-55 Mercs...and this one RULES 'em all!! [​IMG]

    (even if it IS on a Malibu chassis with a small Chevy...who cares when it looks THIS good?? [​IMG] [​IMG])

    I believe that's '55 or '56 Buick side trim without the spears that go back up over the rear quarter.

    It belongs to Tony Genty. His father owns Jamco, and I've been working with the two of them over the last year, doing some design work. Both super nice folks - and good folks to deal with on a business level, too.

    ha! you don't know the half of it. what you can't see is the second forklift- we were playing catch.

    actually the car was found minus wheels and that's a shot of its unearthing after a 20-year dirtnap.

    it's for sale if anyone's interested.
