1952-1954 Mercury Chassis

Scott’s Hotrods manufactures one of the most complete 1952-1954 Mercury chassis available, giving builders a completely modern foundation for one of America’s most iconic custom-car platforms. Each chassis is built-to-order specifically for your Merc, allowing us to engineer the suspension, drivetrain placement, track width and ride height around your individual project rather than forcing your car to fit a universal chassis design.

At the front, Scott’s proprietary Independent Front Suspension features a heavy-duty one-piece 2″x4″x3/16″-wall crossmember, massive 1-1/8″x.250-wall DOM Tubular Upper & Lower A-Arms, built-in anti-dive and modern rack & pinion steering. Out back, our proven Parallel 4-Bar rear suspension locates a Moser Ford 9-inch rear end using heavy-duty adjustable DOM link bars. The chassis itself is constructed using mandrel-bent 2″x4″ frame rails and an 8-point tubular center crossmember, with every Scott’s-manufactured assembly 100% TIG welded for strength, rigidity and precision.

Choose Coilovers for a comfortable cruiser, modern restomod or performance-oriented Merc, or choose Scott’s SuperSlam Airbag Chassis when your goal is an ultra-low, adjustable stance. Whether you’re building a chopped custom, traditional lead sled, modern street machine or completely one-off 1952, 1953 or 1954 Mercury, Scott’s builds the chassis around the car you want to create.

Building a Traditional Custom or Modern Mercury Lead Sled?

Few cars have the presence of a properly built classic Mercury sitting low over the pavement. Scott’s Hotrods gives your 1952-1954 Merc custom the stance you want without forcing you to live with nearly 75-year-old chassis, steering and suspension technology. Whether your vision is a traditional chopped lead sled, a mild custom cruiser or a modern restomod with big horsepower, every Scott’s Mercury chassis is engineered around the finished car you’re actually building.

Want the traditional appearance with modern road manners? Choose a properly engineered low static ride height with Coilovers. Want your Mercury sitting on the ground when parked? Start with a SuperSlam Chassis engineered specifically around air suspension. Either way, you get modern IFS, rack & pinion steering, 4-Bar rear suspension, four-wheel disc brake options and a rigid foundation underneath one of the most recognizable custom-car body styles ever built.
