What's new

1962 Mercury ADHD build

been working on few small things on the truck

rear tail lights, instead of trying to find new lens i just cut the box for some flush led lights. used a micro switch on the pedal to turn them on

added some braces to the trans crossmember as feel like the frame was flexing. used the stock upper bracket and cut it and added a tube to the new trans member. ugly but hopefully works

made a muff pot so can have some warm trial snacks

Is that Muff pot a retail item?

Nice
you can by them but they are meant for snowmobiles so come with the mounting bracket and large hose clamp to attach to the muffler ect. i just ordered a $20 stainless food container off amazon and built a bracket to the inner fender right over the header

link to that SS container?

I do intake manifold burritos, would be perfect.
kinda wish i had gotten a bigger one as will be tight getting food in there for 2 people but will try it out this weekend

here is the link to the Canadian Amazon so sure you can find it for cheaper in freedom land
 
Any idea what kind of temp it gets in there? Curious if it's more just a warmer or if it makes a but of heat and need to be more mindful of drying stuff out/overcooking

no sure about temp but tried it out this weekend, food got nice and hot but i picked pizza pop bite things and got soggy. with better food choice it will work great
 
made it out again, was a beauty of a day and let the wife get some more seat time. thing crawls snow real well but when it time to hp the snow its lacking and learned i need to turn the limiter up as was hitting that when chasing the Durk a few time. but solid day with zero issues and worked the truck hard pulling some stock rigs all day
