Most perfectly proportioned hammered roof I've ever seen on a four door Merc. This person who did this was more than a wonderful craftsman, he was also an Artist.

@caddydaddy84 6 лет назад

Reminds me of when I was a kid thumbing through 1950's custom car magazines. From the color to the interior, to the craftsmanship, everything about this says old school build. Absolutely gorgous.

@verdellgutierrez3522 5 лет назад

Ima quigmire, sure is old school build at least some people in here know what they're talking about.

@Brian-uy2tj Год назад

This has to be the nicest chopped 49-51 Merc I've seen. You really did a nice job. The proportions are beautiful and the metal work is terrific. Keep up the good work!

@Duececoupe 5 лет назад

The metal wizardry never fails to amaze me.....I'm sucker for traditional hotrods and kustoms....I want it! 😉😄😂👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻😍

@bucksnort4188 Год назад

This is just one stunning chop and build!!! Hats off to the metal fabricators who worked on this build, truly talented person/people!!! I will be looking for more videos from this channel. Fabulous workmanship here!

@goldcrayler 4 года назад

One of my favorite custom cars!! After this, a two door is allmost boring. I just love it. The grill and rear bumper is a piece of art by it selfe.

@stephencole958 4 года назад

What a great job, we need more people like you guys that have the skills and experience to do this kind of work. Not just a skill but an art as well.

@roadman14 6 лет назад

Thinking out of the box!!! That s what it s all about, not just another cookie cutter chop. Well done!!!

@OffTheJacks 6 лет назад

Loved seeing it go from a beat up bundle of rust to a thing of beauty!

@freddog5218 Год назад

my graduation present in 1960 was a four door 49 merc god I loved that car .

@zanelile8192 4 года назад

50 mercury my all time favorite, chopped top really set them off.

@wrightsrrt871 3 года назад

I'm researching chopping tops for my first custom project and trying to figure how I want my wifes car to look. Theres so many different looks depending on how much you chopping from front to back off. Amazing work in this video

@joshbuxton2783 2 года назад

Hey Chris Wright check out Bello's Kustoms ... You won't be disappointed..

@dragonflyquyn898 2 года назад

@melcowrong5889 4 года назад

I like the skirts, the suicide doors and everything else. If I had the money this car would be in my collection.

@rickschiller 2 года назад

The Hirohata Merc as a 4-Door! Utterly cool, thank you.

@luizchevelle7218 6 лет назад

Great looking custom and nice pastel color.

@truckertom3323 6 лет назад

What an amazing job you have done there, Beautiful looking Car. All the best from the UK.

@xdrfox 6 лет назад

I would have used a donor and took the back glass sheet metal and all one piece to tie into the front half roof.. if I had a donor car, always try that if they are avalable and not too costly! These guys do good work.. I love this chit ! ART on wheels !

@xdrfox 6 лет назад

We had a 51 4dr when I was little... blue/indigo, got stolen for a bank robvery get away car and ran engine hot blew it !

@juanpegomez8683 6 лет назад

perfect restoration of a classic car. It looks great with that green malibu and the details

@frankschwartz7405 2 года назад

That's not a restoration, it's a re-creation.

@stevemclaughlin3043 4 года назад

What a beautiful restoration to a car that will last for many years!! The 49 and 50's Mercs are my favorite cars! Wish I could afford one!!

@leopena3269 2 года назад

@signjoey 2 года назад

What a great chop...and suicide doors too!

@loveoldcarsguy 6 лет назад

How many shops would dare take on a 4dr chop? Kudos to all the teks involved,especially the metal master,great result!

@godzilla1376 6 лет назад

Excellent fabrication 👍still a way to go - awesome like 👌😁

@twilightshooter4990 4 года назад

I hate four doors but this one looks real Groovy ! Damn that is a lot out work. My friend has a four door 1957 Chevy that he turned into a two door. I have seen a 1955 Chevy four door turned into a two door. I never thought that this could be done or that it would turn out this cool. "CHOPPIN AINT EASY ,IT'S NECCESARY !"

@georgespangler1517 4 года назад

That's one of the few 4 door cars I actually like..

@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus 6 лет назад

Such a beauty, so hard to get the lines right on a 4dr Merc, and that car is so right.

@ness126 11 месяцев назад

Gran bel lavoro complimenti, tratti la lamiera come io mangio un gelato. Poi, bellissima macchina, un sogno.

@radtek2 Год назад

Really Nice job on the old Merc. Although I did not chop mine It has some similar treatments to the 49 I had back in 1963, especially the front fenders. You can see a bit of it in the my thumbnail.

@made_by_chris 6 лет назад

Phenomenal work!

@billdiebold5021 6 лет назад

incredible job. I would have to warm up with an Egyptian pyramid first but I'm short the 100, 000 slaves so I'll just enjoy watching your fabrication talent

@madghosthunter 6 лет назад

I think if the color was candy I would be way better same color just a little darker mix .... But great job on all that work.....

@carlosalbertopultrone3399 5 лет назад

really like. nice body metal work

@kennethhudson8013 3 года назад

Really nice chop. Hell of a lot hours.

@psk5746 4 года назад

Pretty cool and clever. One day an original unchopped old American car will turn up at a car meeting and everybody will go "Wow that is unique!" Will there then be a roof raising movement? 😁

@joshbuxton2783 2 года назад

Beautiful ride

@sidwalker6902 6 лет назад

Beautiful car, great job on the metal work, the color not so much

@nlo114 6 лет назад

Very nice job. At least it's got paint, not like some of the rusty rat-rods. Why the heck they go to so much effort building a car then letting it rot away sure beats me. Kids, eh!

@tpledger100 6 лет назад

awesome top work!

@ANOCKS 6 лет назад

Oh cool! A modern Twist on the barris hirohata Merc with a more-door. It's got the spot on 50s look that's for sure. Nice, I'd drive the tires right off of it. I wonder what the drivetrain is??

@stevemehan7276 3 года назад

@jasoneverley8164 7 месяцев назад

Where do these guys get the replacement glass tho? It's all flat glass? Been Studying on this for laminate glass, gonna grind some down. I'm told it's been done but might take several tries.

@Lazarus1940 6 лет назад

Terrific build as usual, and the paint JOB was flawless (the colour on the other hand...). Question though: what donated the roof section you welded in to cover up to the back window? It looked like it came off another ride.

@rege11111111 6 лет назад

@jamieallison1538 6 лет назад

AMAZING METAL WORK I'm not yet your caliber. Through trail and ERROR and enrolling in CNC Machinist degree classes I hope I'm finally get there. Lots of times I find myself getting "burnt out/bored" with an extensive build and start rushing to finish and mess up. Also I may put in in the shop corner to sit a year. Any advise on handling this flaw of mine. Thanls and top notch metal fab. Also Ive got 20yrs experience on my own. Paint/body was taught by dad but metal fab and mod I'm self taught

@jcerullo5015 2 года назад

Do something every day big or small even if it just sweeping the floor just to keep you motivated. Small jobs get done faster a lot of little jobs turns into a big job done

@danielaguero3766 6 лет назад

Beautiful 50's era look people don't get it those solid colors were what people would drive around in this way if it got scratched or God forbid wrecked it was easy to color match , It can use a few other little tricks but it is a good representation of a car of the period , Kandy paints are nice but it is a pain in the but to match slot of people I know wind up pinstriping over chips or having murals to cover where repairs were made it's cheaper than painting the whole car And Paint Jobs Aren't Cheap

@georgespangler1517 4 года назад

Dam nice job,,,I build and restore classic cars,,have a street rod I built from scratch all aluminum body have 9 trophies from car shows with it,,,have 8 classic cars waiting to restore,,,just finished a 45 dodge pickup and starting a 72 chevelle,,,so I know what you went through.

Good job but the videos are mixed up,I once stretched a Cadillac 48 inches with all the imenities of other limousine,it was quite a job,started a limousine business.the only thing i had done was the extra back seat upholstered
