Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.1) based on 225 votes
This is a frame off restoration and build.  The frame and body disassembled and dipped and striped to bare metal.  Frame is rust free and is painted a satin gray.  All new springs and bushings in the suspension. Rebuilt '78 Nova limited slip 3:07 rear end with all new brake parts (drum type) and 2" lowering blocks. new custom drive shaft.  Front end has disc brakes and 2" drop spindles. power brakes front and rear and power rack and pinion steering.  Nova rear end and front spindles are both GM 5X5. 5" pattern with matching steel wheels. with a new set of Diamondback wide whitewall radials. and '55 Mercury hubcaps. All new brake and gas lines.  All new wiring.  New gas tank.
Body has all rust repaired with metal patches. is primed in period correct barn red primer and the outside over sprayed with flat hot rod black primer.  Body is complete. uncut and and very smooth and only needs minor sanding. additional priming and blocking before painting.  I have a complete set of good stainless trim minus one part. that goes with the car. some of which has had one buffing already.  I have a set of skirts that have not been stripped and primed that also go with the car. The car has all new window seals and felts.  Two of the flat glass panels have cracks but are usable for now.  The curved rear window is excellent and still shows the original dealer's sticker.  The interior of the car has been completely insulated. has an Ididit tilt GM type column.  Dual 6-way power seats in front. original stock bench in back.  I also have the original bench seat in good shape for the front that also goes with the car.  Garnish moldings. column and dash have been painted GM Ruby Red Metallic/clearcoat (the color I was going to go with for the body).
Engine is a refreshed. low mileage '73 Ford 429 with all new bearings and seals.  Plus 100 lbs compression in all cylinders.  Engine has all new accessory parts  like points distributor. starter. coil. water pump. oil pump. alternator. and Edlebrock 600 carb. etc. . runs strong. lots of power. no noises or smoke. Transmission is a performance C6 with a 2500 stall converter (I don't recall the brand but it is in the receipt file). Lokar floor shift.  All new dual exhaust system with Thrush glass packs - excellent '50's lead sled type sound.  Exhaust tips were left long to ad flame throwers.
All the body chrome parts are on the car but need re-chroming to get to show quality but most are usable as is-no rust.  All the stainless trim such as the grill and headlight buckets are nice and just need buffing.  I have a couple of boxes of odd parts that will also go with the car.
If you are looking for a quality '50 Merc coupe. running. driving big block project. this car might be for you.   It runs strong. squeaks the tires and sounds like pure nostalgia.  I love it but I am moving and have too much to take already. so it needs a good home.  The car is far enough along that you can drive it indefinitely as is. but not so far that you can't paint it and finish the interior your own way.  There aren't many smooth. uncut coupes left so this car can hardly loose value.
I am looking for a serious buyer this time around.  If you are a recreational bidder. need to get someone's permission. want to trade. don't have the money or want to sue me if someone out bids you. I don't want to hear from you.  I will be more than glad to work with everyone else to get this car to you.  I won't provide any shipping but I will help and coordinate on my end.  I will accept cash when you come to pick it up. or a cleared wire transfer or cleared cashiers check in advance payment.  And. a $500 non-refundable deposit within 48 hours of the close of bidding in these same forms. or a money order.  No PayPal.  I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally.  If it is OK with you. I would like to keep my temporary oil pressure/amp/temp gauge set which is now attached to the car.
I hope this is the car you have been looking for.  Good luck.
