Working on a Mercury Jody Ridley drove during his frist cup race in 1973. Junie Donlavey was the owner. This has been a tough paint job but getting close to completion. Got an ole school hauler that is a semi fantasy build, but it will match the Mercury.

Slick paint. Took a little time didn't it? Good looking car for sure!

Beautiful job on the paint. That mask job at the front of the red , white and blue must have been tough, but you nailed it.
