I went to Cruise Night near my house last night, and fell in love with this beautiful 1950 Merc.

B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L car its nice to see one that hasn't been charged at with the rat rod theme!! I can picture it now a big beefy italian window at half mast and cigar smoke rolling out... What it must have been like to live and grow up around cars when they were cars and not just transportation. The storys my grandpa tells about his hemi powered GTX days prior to the service engulf my imagination. Stories ranging from running from the cops to the cruise in where my grandma kicked his *** in a stoplight race! He said the minute she crossed that line was the second I gave my heart away! Must have been something!! I want to build a 22 t-bucket or a 50s ford F1 pickup in the worst way but I need a garage to do it in so that comes first!

 

FP, beautiful car indeed.

I hope you know this gentleman, because putting your hand on another mans car at a car show is about as bad as slapping his wife's ***

 

Wow, looks exactly like the car in Minnesota when I used to live up there. I wonder if it is the same one. What a beauty!

 

Great car and a real cool color. The work done to this car is so slick that if you didn't know what a '50 Merc looked like you wouldn't see it. I don't get the slammed to the ground look. Pump up the bags and get it at least 6 inches off the ground so it looks like you could actually drive it.
