Subtle…That's the key to this 1939 Mercury convertible.

All the changes to this classic are so subtle that at first you'll think it's just a restoration.

But then you'll notice things like the smoothed hood and deck lid, the molded rear fenders, the frenched '39 Ford tail lights, the frenched antenna

The running boards have been removed and custom body flares added. The door handles have been removed and electric poppers installed. And that's just the body.
