  • Absolutely loved the restoration, not so much on not seeing and listening to the individuals working on it. Compressing this into a short video was good but I think hearing and actually seeing the people putting the work in really does show that doing these things are no walk in the park and they take a lot of patients and dedication. Really fantastic restoration but it would be good to congratulate the actual people on it.

  • Wow!!! Amazed at the engineering for its day. Had a '49 club coupe in '60. Your attention to detail insistence on thoroughness is awesome. Going to see the '49 next- thanks!!

  • As a little boy , I remember these old Mercury cars were always being customized into a cool rolling machine with Dice hangings in the window with beautiful paint jobs and mag wheels .

    • I agree, I don't like the color at all. Would have preferred, since they put in all of that time effort, to have seen it returned to it's factory condition. Still, to their credit, they didn't Mexicanize the car and turn it into a rolling, hopping pile of junk!

  • It's good to hear that people are taking in these rusted, abandoned vintage cars and restoring them, there aren't as many of like 1910's to 1980's cars around now. As we know the numbers of all types of vintage cars are slowly but surely decreasing and if people aren't taking care of vintage cars their numbers will continue to decrease until they're either rare or until there's none left in the future.
