jakemoseley's 1969 Mercury Montego


The Dude

Recommended Posts

So I guess most of you are wondering, Who was mental enough to buy that rusty old Mercury Montego.

Your wondering is over folks it was me!!!!!

$550 of my finest dollars have been mostly thrown at a new piece of shed art, no engine, no transmission, no floor,

Pah, who cares It was Xmas, I bought myself a present.

 

Hopefully you will now see its transformation from Yard art, to fully functioning cop car replica within the next year or so.

So today finally moved the old girl out of the front of Zebra, as honestly if one more person asked me if it was for sale!!!!!

I put on some new wheels and had a good check over of the old girl, but the rear axle is just some horrible thing thrown in there to get it rolling,

It's actually held in with a clamp!!!

Updates and photo's soon!

Lots of fun was had tonight getting the old god knows what diff out of the Montego, and replacing it with a staunch 9 inch Locker, I'm not sure if this actually what I want in the back of it yet, seems overkill really, and I may downsize to a disc brake falcon one.

 

thank god for Neil and Arthur because that damn diff weighed a ton!!!
