Re: Mercury Photos
The words "beautiful work" just don't do it justice. Great job! Hopefully, you can park it in your front room for a while.

Re: Mercury Photos
No John, I’ve been admiring it for 8 years of this restoration. I intend to drive the heck out of it.

Re: Mercury Photos
A long time ago, Vic Sala and Clem Sala (brothers) both had Mercury roadsters. One of them was red and looked a lot like this one! I look at pictures of yours now and they bring back some wonderful memories.

Re: Mercury Photos
What a magnificent looking car. An absolute credit to you. I love the way you have assembled the hood.
Amazing that there are currently 2 other Mercury projects for sale which I think would be great projects. If only they were in Australia!

Re: Mercury Photos
Thanks Warwick. Either one of the Mercury projects for sale would be a great start. You would already have half the value in wheels and cylinder heads.

Re: Mercury Photos
That car is incredible! Thanks for bringing us along, and I bet 8 years seems like half a day once you start driving it! Did you have any parts plated yourself and what are the switches on the drivers side panel all doing? “The hot-rod bro’s would say “Dude! That thing is bitchin’!” Congratulations sir, and happy driving….Chris, in Boulder

Re: Mercury Photos
Ha! Took me a second Chris. The “switches” are refrigerator magnets that I used to hold templates in place while making the dash. I guess I better get them back to the fridge.
