"SAM's
MERC"
When
the new 1949 Mercury's arrived, Sam knew immediately that this
was going to be the car to customize. He went out and bought one
and drove it everyday. One day he figured it out, he started by
cutting. By the time he was finished he had created the classic
Mercury custom. It was chopped and then revised with all the right
touches including frenched headlights, fade away fender lines
and no drip moldings. Also, popular at the time were very small
taillights that could be hidden in the body and bumper guards. |
