Picked up this 1950 mercury M68 at an auction last Thursday. Had it running by Saturday drove it on Monday and plated it and back on the road today. Truck had sat for last 14 years. Man do I love these old trucks.

 

The old Merc looks nice!

 

Looks very original and unmolested. Got any more pics? You did well.

 

I am so jealous. You guys up there get all the nice trucks. And your driving it too a week after you bought it. Very cool.

 

Nicely done!!

Thats a great looking truck, you did well
