Here's what I posted on the "YouTube" post :

"I call complete BS on this. All of the extra stuff (front fender trim, skirts, lower fender chrome) all scream of a car that someone has modified to their taste. The "EAB" ('52-'53) heads also point to someone modifying the car. I had a '51 Merc, and the oil filter canister was back, not Ford Bronze. If I had a better look at the restrictor fitting on it, I'd bet it was rounded and not square (Mercury). With the interior shots, it is obvious that the door panels are not original. The crap in the glove box means nothing. In the final analysis, this car has been so messed with that what's really going on is impossible to tell.

This is nothing but some guy trying to make a few extra bucks."

Did you know that "gullible" is not in the dictionary?
