Market commentary

How do you spell street rod Like this 40 Merc ragtop, thats how, a tired, ratty old ride that needs so much it makes no sense not to use it as the basis for a new street rod. This price has nothing to do with the value of the Mercury and everything to do with the allure of the project and the unique, persolized, individual street rod the buyer can see bringing admiring looks and favorable comments after a couple of years hard labor in the garage to transform it.
