Default Just Another Pic of The Mercury

I've been too busy to do any work on the 52 Merc lately but I did have a few hours free last weekend to at least give it a little exercise. Got to keep those valves moving so they don't stick. :-)
The trail camera caught this shot of me as I drove by and I thought it was kind of a nice shot. Its running good and sounding great.

When are you going to make a big production, I can believe the chrome is in that good condition, doesn't have any blisters. I sold my 53 merc went to United Kingdom

There are a few bad spots in the chrome that do not show unless you are up close. Rear bumper has some bad peeling on the bumperettes and the right side of the bumper has exhaust burn. A lot of work with steel wool went into getting it to shine but there are a few spots that are beyond help.
