Lot #1009 - This '49 Mercury is a standout custom lead sled. With a fantastic complement of custom fabrication work, including a Carson top. The Bill Hines vision included a chopped top, shaved door handles and lowered ride height to give this Merc the right stance. The beautiful paint was applied by Cypress Rod & Custom. This car features a unique digital dash and two tone leather interior by Gabe at House of Trim. The running gear for this lead sled is a small block Chevrolet mated to an automatic transmission. To make the cruising always comfortable, air conditioning keeps the interior cool. With custom pinstriping by Dave Whittle, this '49 Merc is ready to cruise in style.
