@Marco311 – Was the engine and transmission rebuilt? If so, is it stock or other? What is the maximum ride height clearance? Another question about the wipers. You said that the motor was still there. Does it function? Final question: Where is the gas cap? I've asked what I have because if I do buy the car, I want to run it in car shows. It's just too cool and gorgeous not to. I used to have a '67 Firebird Ram Air 400 that I ran in car shows. It won People's Choice numerous times. I miss going to those shows. (Sorry to bore You). LOL ...
Thank you for not putting in a bid
Thank you all for watching and not bidding!

This is a very high-end build and yes the motor and transmission have been rebuilt. The maximum ride height is 8 inches high. The wipers are functional just like I stated before. The gas cap is in the trunk and is visible in the pictures. Have you not seen all the photos on this car that the auction has up?

Damn no one must want this gorgeous ride!
@Marco311 – I have a few questions: 1) Is the vehicle currently registered as a 1949 Mercury? 2) Is it difficult to fill the radiator? (The overflow tank seems to have a rather small tube that leads to the rad). 3) Would it be difficult to install wipers? It rains quite a bit where I live. LOL ...
1) Yes 2) no you fill it from the top of the canister marked “Hot water”. There is a line running out of the bottom as well as the top for over flow 3) Everything is still there for wipers minus the actual wiper arms, which we have and will come with the car. This car is highly modified and custom, yet still functional.
