Welcome to the build off fun Bob! Cool bike to start, not sure I've ever seen a Mercury bike in a BO before?

I'm surprised how much that Mercury head badge looks like the Shelby one I have on my '53 Airflow frame.

I have a Huffy badge that is almost identical as well.

Great looking project! I really dig the forks and I think those skirt guards will really look good too!

I guess I was a documentation deprived. I did include a start, progress, and finish photos.
