    1952 Merc hardtop windshield seal replacement

    Thanks! I've done a few before but this one has been challenging. I do have calking and am very aware of the mess. I'll use the tape to mark the center as suggested. It may be awhile but I'll post when it's done. Rob Sent from my SM-S901U1 using Tapatalk

    1952 Merc hardtop windshield seal replacement

    After 44 years of family ownership I've decided to replace the leaking windshield seal on my 52 merc. I'm at the point of installing the seal. It's from Carpenter and doesn't quite conform to the glass. It's very tight and doesn't want to stay in place. This is my 2nd try as the 1st time it...

    What did I do and how do I fix it? 1953 Mercury

    Have you checked voltage at the fuse/curuit breaker panel located behind and above the ignition switch? That's Ford's version of curcuit protection. Of course, check grounds as mentioned. If it's original wiring it may be time to replace the wiring harness. Good luck! Sent from my SM-S901U1...

    radiators

    I have one in my 51 Ford. It's 25 years old and still works great and It's not aluminum. I don't care what the claims are, an aluminum radiator dossn't look right under the hood of an old car! That's my opinion of course. Sent from my SM-S901U1 using Tapatalk

    52-53 Merc Fog Lights

    After a lengthy serch I've found all the parts neccessary to install fog lights on my 52 merc. I'm cheap so I bought parts individually to avoid paying inflated e-pay prices. Can anyone help with where the switch mounts and harness routing? It's not going to be 100% as stock but I'd like to...

    just a heads-up

    Although most people here seem to like Iron trap other comments puzzle me. I hear lots of guys bitching that the younger generation isn't interested and the hobby will die but here are 2 young guys who genuinely love this hobby and are actually actively and PHYSICALLY (not virtually)...

    53 Ranchwagon wiring

    You need to remove the left front fender. I did this on my 52 merc. No other way to do it. Rob Enviado de meu SM-G960U usando o Tapatalk

    Scammers upping their game

    It is rampant. FB is too worried about censoring speech to police this stuff. I got scammed for $200 a couple of months ago on FB. Beware of someone posting pics of a car saying to contact for parts and insist on pics of the part you want. I pissed off a legitimate seller doing this but it's too...
