Gotta love the old timers, sweet sled

I ran into this guy at a car show this weekend. His name is Al, he's 76 years old and just finished completion on this merc. He did EVERYTHING himself even down to the paint and interior. Said the car took him about 2 years :eek:

that's him by the trunk :D

he's got a chopped and sectioned merc body I'm going to take a look at :)

I must of sat and talked to him for 2-3 hours. It was a blast considering the 50+ years between us

here are pics from the show
