Looking good...

When the right buyer at the right time comes around it was time to sell the Mercury and is going to a fellow Mercury enthusiast who is up sizing from a 66 M100 to the M250. It saddens me a bit that I didn't get completed as I was so close but it was only here to get me thru the winter and that it did in spades!!!
I had to at least give it a final polish and wax before it left and to installed a little badging.
I would like to thank all of you that helped me out along the way with your knowledge and insight as I reassembled this old girl, it was a fun project that will end up being a nice little truck for him to drive. A parting pic

Oh man.

I hope you sent the new owner over here to take up where you left off!

Sad to see the old girl go to someone else, but when there is a buyer, one can't dismiss that.

You have to hurry up and buy another bump so that we can keep hearing from you Willy!!

Bummer- it's like getting to the last chapter of a good book then losing the book. Sad to see this one go - but perfect buyers don't come along very often. I wonder how long you'll make it before you have another one in your garage.

Wow i'm dumbfounded there. Wouldn't have thought that but sometimes things happen. She is the prettiest M250 i've seen. Hope your well and keep hanging out here with us.

Wow , I haven't been very regular here due to being so busy and then I come back to this! I can't believe you sold her! Well, life goes on. I really enjoyed seeing her come together. Hope you stick around or maybe get another Bumpside.

I was wondering why this thread was so far back... Sorry for your loss.. Hopefully the new owner winds up here, and you end up with another 67-72 Ford truck to rebuild!
