Can You I.D. ?

[Lightning]

Found this - - can you I.D. the original car? IMO it's just WRONG -granted, there is a lot of extreme fabrication and ya gotta hand it to the guy for the craftsmanship, but it destroyed the original beauty of the car.He could have started with something else

The caption near the jpeg I.D says 49 Merc. If it ever was one, it ain't no more! It reminds me of a Darryl Starbird custom.

Larry Kramer built it. It had a top also. I think it was called the Mercrodder.

Looks more like Cosmo Kramer build. Just a mix of different elements that don't quite strike harmony. Kinda like putting a curved windshield in a model A coupe.
