Slick 60's

Just got home from my road trip to Cali. Picked up the 73 Mercury Montego GT. Put on 5375 miles. Stopped in OK city Ok. to see truckrat Gary, also stopped in Phoenix to try and see Garbz but he was working at the time I went through so talked to him on the phone. Stopped in to Ind. Chassis and got the tour from Steve. I'll right more later I'm to wiped out need some sleep. I know I know Pictures Pictures. I will post them tomorrow.

Welcome back Tom!

Now that you are reading this you need to make another road trip!

Matching to your other sport and montego,

Even has FACTORY Ram Air (ok that part was bs, not quite factory)





Pics of your new Montego....

Glad to hear you had a good trip Tom. Look forward to seeing the pics.

glad to hear things went ok and you are home.

looks like it could be a cool ride. is it a keeper? Anthony

Nice car Tom, looks solid and a fun project.
Keeping the red I assume?

I'd love to see one in black

you're insane tom. lololol

It's a keeper to go with my 72 Gran Torino Sport. Will most likely stat red.

Nice Merc Tom.

Welcome home.

BTW Tom, looks like you have some pretty nice weather up there in Mi.

Yes I do. Don't you know that I brought home all that Cali. sun & it melted all the snow.

I can't remember the last time I saw one of those in real life, that's a good score. Was the drivetrain included, or do you get to start with a clean slate?

Judging from those bias plies, it doesn't look like it's been on the road anytime recently.

Last time it was plated was 1987 in Oklahoma. No engine or trans. So yes I have a clean slate to build from. I've had a 351C4v sitting here for 25 years waiting for something to put it in. Just need to find a 5spd for it.

got a little Patina. that should buff right out.

But the big question is, how many cat turds did it come with?

LOLOLOL NONE
