Hello Gang

Hi there.

I thought I should sign in as I now have an old Mercury truck in the backyard waiting for some care and attention. It's a 52 M6 4X4 in fairly solid shape except for the bed. Somewhere along the line a previous owner painted the body with a brush but the interior panels look to be a light green. I can't tell about the fenders, they were probably black (?). The trim looks to be in great shape and I have all of the Marmon-Herrington badges! Anyway, its good to have another Ford/Mercury in the stable, my dad's first truck here in Canada was a 51 1-ton and I had a great '87 Ranger for 10 years after I graduated University. Too bad the neighbor kid wrecked it. I apologize in advance for asking too many dumb questions but as this is my first major restoration I hope you can cut me a little slack.

Thanks,

Biker Pete
