I don't limit myself to any one make...I've built and played with fords, pontiacs, buicks, oldsmobiles, MGs, triumphs, IH, Jeeps, I've even owned a chevy.. The one make I have never owned/worked was a Chrysler product. Don't know why but I guess one just never presented it self. It doesn't...

Happy B'day Pablo! As Ron pointed out Sketchkult is a good one and the peeps there are super super supportive! I do some striping and my advise is get a big piece of glass, duct tape the sides real good, use only the ugly colors from the starter kit and practice practice practice. Don't get...

The Merc It's all about the stickers....and the horse blankets. They need to either smell like sex or a horse...but never both.

I bought my 292 from a guy who had it in T-bucket with trips. I'm not sure if they were 97 or 48s. But the engine smoked from being over carburated. 97s flow 150 cfm while 48s flow about 170. A stock 292 needs around 350 or so. I'm leaning towards 2 48s. I get frustrated dealing with ebay...

Thanks, I'm running a T-pot on it now but am thinking of strombergs on a Vintage Speed adapter...ever had any experience with those?

I run a 62 292 Y-block in my 54 merc. I'm using a 55/56 intake with the old Holley T-pot carb. I know all about the dreaded "Flaming T-pot from Hell" rap this carb has. This one has been rebuilt and and runs great, it looks cool too... I don't think you see many around due to thier explosive...

Looking for 2,500....waiting on a title.

Thanks Bob. I take it out a couple times a week...I have a company car so I don't have to rely on it. Mostly original but everythings been gone over...it was a father / son project. Looking to do some intake work and maybe a cam....

Hey, I'm John from Central NJ. This is my POS, 54 Merc, 62 292, 19 cans of Walmart flat black.

Welcome T-Bone from another Central NJ rodder....I'm in Manchester. Glad to have another NJ peep.

Okay okay gentlemen...home built as in a myriad of different parts combined to make one vehicle. The venerable "Rat Rod"! My Merc is all Ford/Merc from the 50s and 60s done like a 50s bootlegger car. The cars I've seen on this site and killbillet are amazing with the combination of stuff...

Thanks guys....and I am having trouble posting. this thread only loaded my HD. I tried to post my Merc pics on a new thread and they wouldn't go...I'm not particularly computer literate either.

Hey I'm John and I'm from central Jersey. I like traditional style cars and bikes...but I'm sort of facinated with these home builts also. Anyway, wanted to say hello and make some friends. Here's my stuff....54 Merc, 65 Trumpet, 03 HD
