FINALLY!!! A shelf of stuff I can afford. Build back or something or other....................🫏🃏 🇺🇸 in the 🚽
Got the 03 motor and transmission mounted into 54 frame without having to break the ac lines or tr**ny lines so everything is still closed up in tight on this motor. Anxious now to start getting the body mounted in the floor cut in. Thanks for watching.

well I had a parts car follow me home yesterday from cedar rapids Nebraska. The frame is in much better shape than the Ute so I will use it. Now to get this old 4-door body off get the frame cleaned up at the 03 Mercury engine and transmission in it and I'll be ready to go.

So here are a couple of pictures of my 54 Mercury when it was being built originally in 1965. Two years before I was even born. He finished it and took pictures in 1967 of the finished car I will post them later. He did an awesome job. I am convinced that the rear window and end of the roofline was all handmade by him and not cut from a Chevy pickup.

They used a lot more bolts and 54 to hold stuff together than they do now.

How killer is this? Dug out all the crap and extra parts in the "cab" and found a Hurst shifter coming out of the floor.

So I am getting that car in Kansas from nobody else's Auto recycling. you shot me a great deal because you knew the car would get built. He was worried that with its interesting history that it didn't just get scrapped out.

I've got my first sponsor. I can't wait for Dan to get me concept drawings and to have a great set of buckets and a nice console in this beast. Thanks Kustom Alley.
