I'll throw in a y block that will need rebuilding. Or I have a good 390 block and toploader 4 speed for a little extra. Looking to get $500 for car with y block. Yes it's a little rough but most of what it needs is available through EMS. I have a nice tailgate and hatchfor also. Has clear title in my name.

Is it possible to get a photo of the PATENT PLATE (VIN)?
By 62bigwindow - 5 Years Ago
I can get it in a couple days.
By KULTULZ - 5 Years Ago
I really appreciate that.

The quarter glass being one piece is new to me. I have seen it on MERC but want to get the SERIES/BODY CODE.

The side glass is missing on it. As far as I'm aware neither came with one piece side glass. I've seen a few that were custom but not factory.
By KULTULZ - 5 Years Ago
Would still appreciate the info if you can.

There was no 56 MERC 2DR Wagon or 1 PC Side Glass. I need to realize the word CUSTOM does not necessarily designate the Body Trim Level but that it may also designate it's being a  CUSTOM build.

It's not nice to trick seniors but the floaters in my eyes also may present reading comprehension difficulties.

Now where are those purple pills? I need to re-console myself. ...

Kind of like the 58 Edsel Sedan Delivery I saw One Time. 58 Ford with an Edsel Front end.

By yalincoln - 5 Years Ago

By KULTULZ - 5 Years Ago
Nah, the builder only modified the glass opening frame to appear as a CROWN or NOMAD.

Funny, when I came across it, I didn't bother to follow the referring URL to read the description or notice the modified door glass frame.

I thought I had found a base MERC trim level similar to the FORD COURIER.

That Merc looks like a hearse! Should have left the sliding window in..how are the people in the back seat suppose to throw out their McDonald"s wrappers?!

...how are the people in the back seat suppose to throw out their McDonald"s wrappers?!


Or beer cans!?!

Once I came down off my first nervous and jerky reaction to seeing it, it is a bad idea. Have to leave the top of the gate open and throw it out of there I guess ...
