48' Mercury Woodie
This is my dads car, I believe he first got it back in the late 70's as just a frame and some pieces. He finished it about 15 years later only to have an uninsured drunk driver total it while he was on his way to our insurance place (Car was on the road for maybe 3 miles). After that it sat for about 5 years until he decided to finally finish it again. (Only time I can remember seeing my dad cry)
