1950 Mercury

Afton, OK

I had the pleasure of of riding around with Matt in this the day before the main show. All Stray Kat shows, the 500 and Starliner in September in Wichita, have fun mobile activities the day before. This was taken outside the Starbird Museum in Afton, OK. Despite what this car looks like, it runs extremely well. It was pulled from a riverbed and Matt, the owner, got it up and running, including putting it on a much later Impala or Caprice chassis in only 3 weekends.


Best viewed at original size.

Pulled from a riverbed - that's a new one for me!

Quite an accomplishment getting this one back on the road. Lots of character to go along with the history.

Wow, that is amazing that something that had been in water like that looks that good! And remarkable talent by the owner to get it going.

Who'd of thought that the Mercury would be on a more modern chassis...VT!

A nicely composed image Dan. Looks like it needs a few more weekends of work.
