That`s an incredible paint job....it`s not easy to make a black car look that good. Someone spent a LOT of hours doing good prep work on this one. The suicide doors are a beautiful touch. What a classic !

[@merc-ni7hy]

nice to see its not all junked up with a chevy motor

[@festyguy7405]

Yes! Those guys need help!

[@krugmeister7301]

BACK IN BLACK AND LOVE THE WHITE WALLS...😍😍😍

[@TheRicokilla]

Why are cars not made like this anymore?????

[@MrOiram46]

now we have edgy lines everywhere and ugly headlights; no elegant curves and no soulful and colorful aesthetic that gives character to an everyday car.

[@chemxfan]

Very nice! With the weather clearing, this is just the ticket to cruise in.

[@muffs55mercury61]

Awesome car. Now if someone had put a Chevy motor in it is when I would have stopped watching this video. They did a nice job. Four door cars are finally getting recognition after playing second fiddle to 2 door hardtops and convertibles for so many years. My kind of car down to the 6 volt electrical system.

it just keeps getting better

greg that merc is beautiful!!

[@davidtosh7200]

I thought Ford Motor Company has safety features on Edsel, Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury. But such is not the case. Both Lincoln and Mercury for 1949, 1950, and 1951 model years has rear suicide doors. So does 1960 to 1969 Lincoln Continental 4 door sedan. Ford Pinto does have fuel tank problem for 1971-1976 hatchback when hit by behind with another vehicle at certain speed. For 1967-1971, Ford Thunderbird does have rear suicide doors on its 4 door sedan. Chrysler does give up rear suicide doors after 1948 on some models, and GM does give up after 1940 models.

thanks greg.

[@twinbr]

good job

[@Taranau]

There's a song about a "Mercury 49"... Probably have to pay royalties, though... This... Is the car that song is about...

[@BorisBadenov-c7q]

Well Greg if you don’t get a raise in 2020 you’re looking at it the rotating display

[@richroggio]

greg can you fix the original radio?

[@jeffl1460]

You guys gotta get rid of that intro "music". People of the caliber your looking to attract don't want to have to listen through that crap. Do yourself a favor. Go right into the vehicle intro.
