49 Merkenstein pick up


CB

Recommended Posts

Good ol' Doc Frankenstein decided he could use a new ride to transport his body parts, so since he couldn't find a cheap panel delivery, he decided to modify his 49 Merc :P

He had IGOR go out and get him some body parts and started welding 'em up.

While IGOR was out he eyeballed some big tall wheels on some guys donky Impala,

decided they might look goodly on the good doctor's ride, so he grabbed them too.

Doc agreed about the big wheels and they got em under the frame, set the body

next to it and layed out some lines so IGOR could get busy cuttin'.

So IGOR got started.....

George beat me to it. I seriously think you should have your meds checked as there's in imbalance there somewhere. John, my Friend, this looks like it's going to be another outrageous build. You never know what's going to surface next from your bench, but you always know it will be unique.

Hard to keep up with good ol' IGOR on this here project, but after getting him some much needed shut-eye, the good doctor got him a better look at them big tall tires pokin' up thru the front of his ride and didn't like it :D . Good ol' IGOR, always aimin' to please his master set to work to try and fix things up mo' better for the doc...

19hmmm-vi.jpg

...by going out and robbin some fenders off'n some other poor souls' 49 :blink: . But even IGOR could see dat that were'nt gonna work, so....

22COOLanotherbody-vi.jpg

...he done went back out and lifted a whole 'nother body off'n someone elses 49r! B):blink: IGOR's one busy boy! :lol:

25twofronts-vi.jpg

He struggled a good bit, but finally got them big ol' tires under them fat fenders..... but he had to widen the whole front unit to do so-- and then he seen dat ol' doc wouldn't be ables ta see thru dat chopped windyshield with it settin' way up there like dat...

27losingweight-vi.jpg

...so off came the widened hood & fenders so's he could whack off the pesky part what was holdin' everthing up <_<

29fatfronton-vi.jpg

Set the fat front back on and seen ol' doc wouldn't be able to steer them big tires thru them twisty windy graveyard roads :blink::angry: . IGOR was startin' to get just a little preturbed with the whole thing, but...

34-vi.jpg

...he layed some more cut lines....

45pd3-vi.jpg

After ol' IGOR woked up and seen his handiwork with the fat front fenders covering up them big ol rubbers, he figured maybe the good doc might like a bit of the same on the back too B)

b-vi.jpg

So he grabbed him the first set of fenders he ripped off that poor souls 49 and sliced 'em up and stuck 'em in place with his BIG hands for to see how they look :blink:

c-vi.jpg

He tried 'em this way and thataway.......

k-vi.jpg

...and finally decided to put 'em on thisaway, after torching them a bit :)

PWHATHAVEYOUDONEIGOR-vi.jpg

Then he made a BIG mistake :o -- he set the body back on backwards!!! Q-vi.jpg

Yep! Fer sure, ol' IGOR wasn't sure if'n his head weres on backwards or what, but he were sure worried 'bout what the doc was gonna say, so he did the only think he knowed to do to try and make things right...

R-vi.jpg

...and got to slicing and dicing again! :blink: He started feeling a little better since he had almost a whole 'nother body to be workin' with....Whew! B)

(maybe doc won't notice :unsure: )
