49 Merc gasser

[59 Impala]

Here are some pictures of a 49 Merc that I made a gasser from a parts car.  It has the Lincoln engine from the 25 T with the blower and four carbs.  The tow bar is from the 62 Bel Air kit.  On the trunk I made a decal that says Hower Vocational High class of 66, the year that I graduated.  The colors are close to our school colors.

Very nice build.  Looks like something a high school auto-shop class may have built in the 60's.  Close to my school colors also, class of '67.

Looks great, I like the two tone paint.

Thanks for the kind words guys.  This was another build that I had to come up with some parts to complete it.  Again, it was a fun build for me.
