i agree, everything was nice on the mod except for the God's head or better yet the forbidden marauder bumper, hopefully you dont have that. But overall the motor mods are nice.

Where did you get the powered by ford badging at? Did you just cut it from a set of coil covers on a DOHC? Makes a nice addition to the boring old black covers!

I can't open my mouth about the god's head, since I am guilty with the "SVT MERC" having SVT center caps and deck lid emblem.

I like it, tastefully done, quality of the work is beyond what most people would expect.:bows:

Three thumbs up :up:, I don't care if it's on a CV, the whole idea of modding our cars is just that, modding them.

If you need the rest of the parts to make it look like a MM, let me know. :jk:

I am curious.... is the gods head molded into the airbox, or was that glued in place?

Extracted from the top of a 1965-7 Mercury < various models > windshield washer reservoir ...

And adhered to the airbox using 3M windshield rope-caulk.
