sorry for the lack of videos recently, there's just not much to work on right now. this is a little update and startup vid for what's next on the mercury. I'll have more of this car on this channel as soon as I can get to work on the body restoration and paint

I owned a74 Monterey ex-ISP with a 460PI what a crazy fast ride!

My best friend had this same car, same engine and everything we drove that boat everywhere.

For a 50 yr old car it looks great!

I peeled the vinyl roof off my old Plymouth. Not rotten underneath, a little surface rust in spots...painted it gloss white & put the separating trim back. Looks factory & won't rot

Please save this. If you repaint keep that great seventies color. Best of luck.

Very cool project it’s really worth putting headers and good set of resonators I’d change the intake and make it breathe more air into it so that cam could work better.

If you have an old Ford V8 that hasn't been started for a while, pull out the distributor and find a way of attaching a power drill too the hex drive that goes down to the oil pump and pump oil through the engine without it running. Turn it the same direction as the distributor turns.

Good idea 💡

Looks like it cranked up just fine, now then, you need to check all fluids &filters because it, may need new everthang in it. Good to know it'll sit there and run.
