...note from yesterday, it's the same old theme,
make one car, call it another, things aren't what they seem.
All of the Big Three have made that mistake,
so no one of them can take the cake.

Mercury for example used to call out the bands;
the Ford Motors got cheap and just made more of the same,
so design and planning are the ones to blame.


Top: 1949 Mercury family wagon-great photo of the Grumman Goose too. Click on the photo
Middle: 1951 customized.  The 1949-1951 Mercury was a favorite to customize and street rod.
Bottom: 1958 2-door hardtop, my first ride of over 100mph.
