First Mercury Drive of 22
 

After sitting in the shed since November it was well past time to fire up the 52 Merc on a warm April 4th. Snow was melting fast. Although the road was mostly dry, the ditches were filling up with water. My drive was cut short when I discovered a blocked culvert in the driveway. Rest of the day was spent pumping water trying to unplug the culvert. Needless to say the Merc ran smooth as ever. https://youtu.be/HtMX-agWbWE

Hello Ralph.......my yard dried up enough to move my ‘50 out of the barn into my shop. I couldn’t resist going for a little ten mile cruise out on the blacktop road........I don’t know who enjoyed it more......me or the car !!!!!!.......Take care......Mark

Hi Mark. good to hear the conditions are improving enough to drive the antiques for you too. I'm going to have to re-new the registration on the Merc before I can hit the pavement with it. Its overdue for an engine oil change so that is on the list.
