My car has most of the bodywork done, it should be on the road in a week or so ( not compleated, just drivable ). Check out " Rust hole in chrome front bumper " for all of the pics I have taken of my car.You don't know what you've got til it's gone

Yeah brickman, it will not be a everyday driver, I won't have a everyday driver because I am a poor teen with no money but oh well I would rather have a old car and not drive it every day. I hope I am going to be able to go check the thing out either tomarrow or Monday, but from the looks of it I can't look at it until Monday.www.streamlineautocare.com

From the look of this car, I would say to really get it legal and not too conspicious, you would want a dark straight paint, Do something about the roll bar, Exhaust is probably non-existant and make sure it all will idle. Then go through the lights, check for suspension Mods and steering. However, there is some potential there. Even though its a ford.Right engine, Wrong Wheels

Ok well I am going to call the guy up sometime today when I got time and see about this thing. I got a good list of questions to ask. Also I found another 67 Merc (same one as this) and it's messed up and pretty much can't be fixed up unless you had tons of money (100,000 or more) but it has good parts and it's only for like 700 which is a bit too much for what it is but I thought that if I got this car then I can check that one out for parts, but I first have to see what's going with this car before I get my hopes up any.www.streamlineautocare.com

I just called them up and they said that the shock towers and fire wall has not been cut up at all, the whole dash was taken out and remodified for racing, it's not street legal and mostly because of no title or nothing and the tires. No rust, no motorplates, no seats besides driver. It is basically all for racing her and the guy said so I don't know about this then. I would like a car like this just for racing but also would like to be able to take it on the street sometimes once in a while as well.
Anyways, I am not going to get the thing, I don't wan't a car with no title mostly because my dad was telling me that it doesn't matter if it is for racing only that it should have a title no matter what and also it's too much of a pain in the ass for cars like that and I don't have the money to keep fixing it and all when I raced it. Oh well, just going to keep looking. Hopefully one day I will find me a nice 36 or 37 Chevy truck.Last edited by FMXhellraiser; 06-04-2004 at 11:02 AM.

Yeah, I have been driving around a lot and can't find any old cars around for sale but I will just wait. I will just sit back and wait until I come across one or something because I don't really have the money for one or the money to spend on it because there are other things I need but if I do come across a 37 or something like that then I will definetely jump on it if it's in my price range.www.streamlineautocare.com

Thanks! It's the most metal forming I've done. I was wishing I had an English wheel and a planishing hammer.
