Got me a Mercury

[48Flyer]

Went to a garage sale yesterday and came home with this!
Not a spot of rust anywhere on it.
I was dumbfounded when I saw it sitting there

Lucky dog! all the garage sales I go to are full of womens clothes!

 

[Vic Piano]

That's sure is a nice find. Maybe I should start going to garage sales

 

[oldbugger]

Still got the flat head? thats cool

 

[Old Redneck]

Did you get the grill and bumpers? Nice car to tour with.

 

[Henry/Kokomo]

Good Job!! Beautiful car. Doesn't appear to need much but exercise.

 

[48Flyer]

Bumpers are rechromed and still wrapped up, new glass all the way around, the grill is absolutley cherry, and the entire bottom has been painted in POR 15.
Yes it has the flathead in it and it is going to stay in it. It also has dual exhaust.
It was the find of the year, thats for sure

Are you more upset that you haven't found any cars or that there is nothing in your size in the women's clothes? LOL just kidding!

I found this 1970 Bradley GT at a garage sale 2 blocks from my house. It was interrupting me finishing my 36 Cabri SO I sold it... Had some excitement & fun because I went to a garage sale on a wim. My step Grandkids loved it they also love my 36 & the Rumble seat.

Nice car! Now please, do not chop it, bag it, slam it, put in air conditioning, or any other crazy business!

The plan is just to get it safely on the road and keep driving it

 

[Ken Crans]

You could do alot with that one!

 

[Ol' Ron]

Your biggest problem will be the brakes, they just can't work in today's trafic. Put a set of disks on the front.
