To Cupar In The Merc 1 Attachment(s)
Finally got a few video clips edited from last weekend's car show. It was a 46 mile round trip and that is the longest the Merc has been on since 1969. The last time it was in Cupar. It ran great and normal temp. Loved the pavement.

Re: To Cupar In The Merc Ralph….I haven’t had a chance to watch the video…..I saw the name “Dysart” on the side of that building in the picture. There is a family in Hamden,ME. with that name. They’ve had a truck stop and oil/ tanker delivery business for years. Looking forward to see your latest outing in the Merc. Take care,……. Mark

I hauled a few loads of grain into that elevator back in the days it was still in service as a Sask. Wheat Pool building. My guess, Dysart was named by some Scots immigrants much like the next towns down the road, Cupar and Markinch. The flathead Merc ran great. No problems with heat as temps were in the sixties. Gas mileage was roughly 15 mpg but there was quite a headwind part of the way. |

Ralph… thanks for the ride and the Car Show!…. Great looking bunch of vehicles up that way….. I’m always amazed at the great openness of your location….it’s high on my list of a “drive thru “ when time allows…

Re: To Cupar In The Merc The maroon 58 Skyliner brought back memories. I had a 58 four door hardtop that i had painted the same color. Looks good with the gold side trim.

Ralph: That Tiger tail in your windshield reminds me of the Gulf extra kick horseshoes they used to give out. I cut them in half and stuck one to each vent window of my ‘50 Ford back in the day.
