1966 Mercury Cyclone Derale 2015 SEMA booth build

[Derale]

Here we go removing the front suspension.





There was a crude hole cut out to clear for headers here.




Thanks to TCI we won't be needing this anymore!

We are pulling the trim and glass getting her ready to send out for stripping and primer.










Just a shell now....Looks a lot smaller for some reason.

[Derale]

Knocking out most of old grime before taking her out to get stripped and primed.







Made a quick stand so we can easily move it around.

Nice!
Still waiting to see the rendering.

Please do keep the scooped hood. Mercury also made a functional ram air version but getting hard to find.

This will be fun to watch!

Are you doing any era correct chassis modifications or just leaving it factory correct with your modern suspension goodies bolted to it?

Here are some pics I took last week while I was visiting the Derale facility.

...... I mean Slow4dr ......, it might just be me but I think they were trying to post pics in sequential order...... way to go letting the cat out of the bag






LOL, just messing with you Bro

[Derale]

Yes, Thanks Al. That is what we were intending to do, It's all good. We will still keep it rolling forward to keep everyone up to date with the build.

Al introduced us to this site, we actually started the build a few months ago.

Al's Camaro will be our booth vehicle at SEMA this year. Very cool car and an outstanding build!
