'51 Mercury lead sled (3)

1949-1951 Mercuries are some of the most popular cars for customisation. My model represents a 'lead sled', a popular style in which many of the external trimmings are removed, giving the car a super-sleek look. A few decades ago lead was used as filler on cars like this, hence the name.
