IMHO The Dumbing Down of a great car
Dechromed it, crappy shift knob, fuzzy dice, replacement gauges, pinstriping on the trunk. These was a terrific image to begin with 1952 - 1954, but this is sinful

I'm with Charlie and Ron. Nice car, but not after it's been on the operating table.

Not a total bummer. For me.....
the major infraction is the easiest to correct by swapping out the thin WWs for period correct WWs. Of course I would have preferred it stock.

Mercurys were always popular with customizers. I like 'em stock and customized. Nice car.

Yeah, put it in my driveway!

I'm not crarzy about the wheels but otherwise I like it.

Couple things I don't like but I'd still take it if given to me!

I've never seen a custom of a '52-'54 Mercury that looked more beautiful than the real thing.

Agreed, but the customs are usually pretty nice too.

PICS - Stock is beautiful no matter what the model......
