Steve Dauvia, keep fighting! And that car is a symbol of your fight. If you get to the point that you cannot drive it, then put a automatic in that thing and keep driving. I had a tumor in my brain and it was cancer. Every car in my life has been manual but now I can’t use my left hand so I have to drive autos. Keep fighting brother
I was doomed to be a petrol head, my father, grandfather, countless uncles and cousins, hell my stepfather and my mom are all car people. I have owned close to 40 cars in 32 years and I am always looking for something new and interesting.
"My mom knew there was something wrong with me" ( because of being a "car person". Actually, there was something wrong with his MOM - for NOT being a car person! His MOM was like my Mum and Dad!
Great job, Steve. Like you, a job in a gas station helped make me a car nut. It was my Dad's station, and I worked part-time for him in high school. It wasn't like gas stations today, where somebody sits behind a counter or in a glassed-in booth and take money or credit cards. I loved going out and gassing up people's cars and chatting with them. That was in the early '60s, when a lot of cars had their gas filler caps hidden away under taillights and such. Lots of fun times.
I love the 64 Mercury.! My best friend bought a 63 1/2 Galaxy 500 with the 425 hp 427. A real screamer. Thank you for restoring this piece of memory. Currently building a Boss 351 Cleveland into a 1986 Thunderbird ala' Awesome Bill Elliot. Full on NASCAR clone except the numbers.
This guy has all the accolades I wish I could even just try to achieve. Born too late, but I’m grateful for now and not any later. I love these Marauders
I love that your paint job incorporates the Mercury Winged Messenger. I was like you in that when I was a little boy my Dad had a 63 Mercury Meteor and every day I waited for him to come home from work so I could stand on the front seat and pretend to drive (for HOURS). The Messenger Man at the center of the steering wheel was my best friend.
In regards to the legs, probably hand controls might help out. Rob "chairslayer" Parsons has a nice hand controlled drift car and his set-up is very good. Probably take a look at how he set his car up.
when I was 12 I got to see Parnelli Jones, AJ Foyt, Andretti and Don White racing a USAC road course event in the midwest. Jones and Andretti were driving 1964 Mercury coupes with the numbers 14 and 16 on the doors. They thundered around the track with those 427 engines and huge loud pipes. I was hooked.
Great era and great mid-size Mercury! This car would be a hit anywhere. He can always enjoy this classic beast - driving or as he did as a kid - from the porch.
Another fabulous Petrolicious video, car, owner and story. This is like a mini movie, what with the story of the build, and fine narration, and perfect music. Lovin' your work Steve, and Petro'
Love ❤️ uncle had a 64 marauder. Let it sit in impound. Still sits since 97. I remember being little riding in it with black primer. Called it the batmobile. Ohh the memories. When I say this is a dream car to people I get the look. They don’t understand.
Steve: I'm not a fan of Mercs, but you deserve to drive that car as long as you can. There's got to be someone that can properly diagnose what's going on w/you, & save the use of your legs. But if not, there are companies that can convert your car - because you & that car have been through too much to be separated now.
As a person with terminal pancreatic cancer, this really hits home. One of the few pleasures I still have is driving my Corvette Grand Sport. But at some point I will also have to give it up as Sitting upright gives me pain. As this demon grows inside me it is becoming more and more difficult to drive. I dismay that someday my last pleasure will be taken from me. Enjoy your life, live it to the fullest, have no regrets, don't put off things like aspirations and travel. Do them while you can. Cherish your health family and friends. I hope this gentleman can buy a rig that would allow him to use his arms for raking and clutch actuation.
Amazing. I really enjoyed this short! Best of luck to you and hoping you have the ability to use your legs as long as you live. One really beautiful car, one I would be MORE THAN PROUD to own myself!! Nothing quite like a big block and a manual trans.... Love it!!
I know how he feels, I'm a Type 2 Diabetic and about 20 years ago I started to lose the feeling in my legs below my knees, and I loved to drive, but without being able to feel the gas pedal or the brake, I was a danger to the other drivers on the road and I knew it, so when my driver's license came up for renewal in 2000, I didn't get it renewed and sold off my 1984 GMC S10 Jimmy 2.6L V-6 that I'd bought in 19+85 and had driven across Canada 3 times while I was in the military. So now I driver a walker after my triple by-pass operation on my worn out heart, the 3 to 4 hour operation took 9 hours and my heart stopped once, I was so bad a shape, they didn't expect me to walk out of the hospital, But here I am, still pissing people off. Like Steve, I've always thought the wildest places for stock cars are road courses, I remember watching on TV the Riverside NASCAR race when it was the first race of the season and drivers like Dan Gurney and Mario Andretti would clean the clock of Richard Petty and David Pearson. And I just loved last year's Charlotte Roval race, they should do more roval races at Daytona and other tracks that have road courses.
Charles may I suggest you watch the movie "Forks Over Knives" and then spend some time on TH-cam watching the talks by the 2 doctors in that movie, and by Dr. Barnard, and Dr. McDougal.
Great heartfelt story and car. Steve can I encourage you to devote the energy inventiveness and determination that created your car, to your health. There will be an answer out there and then you can continue to enjoy your creation
Nice to see a 64 Merc vs the 64 Ford. Always wanted to learn the "politics" of the 1964 NASCAR season within the FoMoCo. It seemed to me the Merc was the better race car. As I recall the Mercs were built on the West Coast and the Ford's "Down South". At one point I had a chance to have a long talk with one of FoMoCo's top engineers from that era and quickly realized how much the racing fans never heard of what was really going on behind the scenes. Thanks for the memories!
Damn i believe he may be suffering from multiple sclerosis. My friend is going through the same thing him and i been friends since T-ball and bern riding our minibikes and then our motorcycles together damn near both our whole lives. Brings tears just thinking about it you can only be the best friend you can be
As a Grand National Stock car (Nascar) fan from waaay back, i really enjoyed seeing this car. Nice job. I just want to hear more about how you finally got it back after 6 months.
Your story is awesome! Unfortunately I can identify with the height and leg issues. Planning on taking on a full build anyway. You're an inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
I love it when people say I'm not of fan of Mercurys. What are they fans of Subaru's and Smart ( dumb) cars? Mercs ( not Mercedes) are as cool as James Dean and David Pearson!
You had to go through a lot of issues but still you went on, great spirit. I pray to God for your health. Why don't you convert it to something that can be driven without using your leg. Hope your enjoy the car for years to come. God bless you
Awesome car and what a story. I can relate to that boat motor thing also 351 Holman Moody's (pair) came out of a wrecked 35 ft power boat had the same issues with the pulleys when I tried to use one in a car I built (boats have an unlimited radiator - the lake) LOL Old boat guy I went to that worked for an offshore race team many years listened intently as he was doing a couple Holley's for one of those Holman Moody 427's. After I was done with my story he says you drive it here - yes I did and its hot now grrrrr. He walks out opens the hood on my 70 Torino says start it up, takes the radiator cap off and revs the motor up to about 3000 says ok turn it off. Says needs a automotive water pump pulley the boat pulleys are too small probably be 1-1.5 inches larger diameter. I think I have one - looks through his stash finds it and hands it to me. What do I owe you? See that drug store across the street, yep go get me a half pint of peach brandy. DONE!! Do you still have this car?
It makes sense to me that an engine with a constant (relatively) cold water supply would want to slow the water pump down to avoid overcooling. And no, I'm not some hotshot engineer, I didn't hear of this 'til I watched the vid. It just makes sense if you have some basic automotive knowledge. That said, I have certainly struggled with my own car issues that turned out to have simple solutions that left me feeling quite stupid. I love early sixties FoMoCo products, my first car at 18 was a '64 Galaxie 500/XL coupe.
My first car was in the 1980s i was 5 yrs old and it was a General Lee 69 dodge charger dukes of hazzard pedal car! I drive a 67 chevy impala today! To add if you lose the use of your legs you can convert it to pneumatic shifting toggles on the steering wheel!
Using fel pro head gaskets also causes over heating. The FE water jacket is large, fel pro puts a tiny hole to " help warm the engine " Idk if other manufacturers do this but the factory gasket matches the water jackets!!
First thing i thought at the beginning: there's parts on marine applications that don't work on automotive application. I'm surprised all these people who looked at the engine did not consider if the pump was pumping. Since marine engines operate at a high rpm all the time while underway, it's necessary to underdrive the pump or the impeller will cavitate. Car makers even understood this for muscle cars. Due to low rear end gear ratio and high revving engines, they slowed the pumps down a little compared to regular passenger car duty. Using pulleys off a 427 impala for your L75 396 could be problematic at high engine speed unless it will be treated as a slow driving parade car.
As always, another great story about fantastic car and its current caretaker. I see the passion and the heart that was built into this machine. I love cars but I also loce music, what was the mandolin like instrument that Steve Dauria was playing? Steve I hope your leg trouble resolve so you can continue the journey with this magnificent beast.
I really really enjoy each and every single video of yours. But I wish there was more "pure" driving footage, just like 2 or 3 unedited minutes of driving to get a feel of the car and hear it. With the talking and music you can't really enjoy the sound. So can you maybe add a couple of minutes of just driving at the end of each video?
Hello, liked your car very much, a Mercury Marauder or early Turnpike Cruiser are two cars that have always been on my 'Wish List' but as a 71 year old semi- disabled guy I'm satisfied with my 2000 Mercury Marquis, one of the last of the old-school body-on-frame, V8, rear wheel drive cars. About your legs, I was worried about mine also as it was becoming more difficult to walk.. I went to the Doctor and they found out a nerve bundle in my spine was being pinched and would continue to deteriorate unless attended to. That stopped further damage but it's still difficult for me to enjoy driving my 1966 C-10with a old-school Supercharged V8 because of the clutch, Just thought you should check that out if you have not done so already. Regards, Phil Massie'
That's odd. I had absolutely no problems hearing and understanding everything he said, despite english not being my native language. Might be because I'm using proper old-school floorstanding hifi speakers.
Great dude, cool car! Could not clearly hear what he said about the engine at 8:30 - since it came from a boat, it did not have pulleys, it had...what?
8:30 It didn't have pulleys it had...what? Cant understand what he says there, however the cooling issue should have been a very easy issue to ID and resolve, not sure why that was so difficult but oh well, glad he got it sorted out. Nice machine.
Dan Gurney was tall like you and won almost every time he went to Riverside and just about every place else . I changed to a big alt. pulley on my 428 CJ and ran a single belt because the dual belts would slip when you tromped on it .
Here is to your health. May it only improve....
this dude was living the carguy dream from the beginning, really enjoyed his voiceover
Car guys Dream indeed.BAD ASS!!!
Never met this guy but in 9:34 minutes I figured out I've liked him all my life.
Agreed!!
Steve Dauvia, keep fighting! And that car is a symbol of your fight. If you get to the point that you cannot drive it, then put a automatic in that thing and keep driving. I had a tumor in my brain and it was cancer. Every car in my life has been manual but now I can’t use my left hand so I have to drive autos. Keep fighting brother
Evan, God bless you and Steve. Keep fighting, brothers.
Keep going brother!
"my mom knew something was wrong with me" hahahaha

Dream car ...... I grew up with one. Broke my heart when my Dad sold it. I hope to own one again one day . Brings back so many memories.

This has got to be one of the coolest cars ever featured on Petro.
Ive got 10 yrs in the custom car game. 5 in aircraft structures. This car is a true work of art
Steve Dauria, my best wishes for your health. Damn cool car.
Awesome. Awesome. The fact that Petrolicious understands cars, regardless of make or era, makes it my favorite channel.
That's a really beautiful car
true, a really beautiful sight.
@Wesley Dean Hey Wesley! You're from Car Throttle right? 😁
@@stefanwinter1377 yes i am hehe 👍🏼
@@wesleydean834 Funny, that we both have the same name on YT and CT😂
@@stefanwinter1377 hehe i first made that name here on yt after a while i made that name on ct to didn't knew you where on yt to 😱
WOW...Who else saw the Parnelli Jones signature on the dash?
That car looks beautiful driving along those twisted roads!
Great story and a magnificent Marauder!
Wow! What a story! After what he went through building this, he gets my vote as The Ultimate Car Guy.
In regards to the legs, probably hand controls might help out. Rob "chairslayer" Parsons has a nice hand controlled drift car and his set-up is very good. Probably take a look at how he set his car up.
i worked for a guy who was in a wheel chair and all his cars and trucks hand those controls. all his machines had big blocks and were fast.
when I was 12 I got to see Parnelli Jones, AJ Foyt, Andretti and Don White racing a USAC road course event in the midwest.

These Petrolicious videos were the best. So sad they are not continuing to produce them.
Loved it! 9' went by like nothing... amazing story, perfect voice and awesome car.... Buena vida Steve! Things will look and be better!
Lovely stuff. The cooling issue amused me. Not in a bad way, it's just funny. Cool guy, cool car, great film. Thanks.
This car would be a great antagonist a 'Dukes of Hazzard' Episode. Absolute stunning car!
One of my all time favorite race cars. I remember seeing Parnelli Jones race this Mercury at the Milwaukee Mile.
1st of all I hope your health improves, & thanks for sharing this. Vary interesting about marine engines using different size pulleys .
Thank you, these are the kind of Petrolicious videos I love.
Almost a year later and im still drawn to this video about 10 times.
What an amazing tribute car! I'm building a 67 Cougar on my channel and I'm thinking the daily driver race car look is going to happen.
Such a sleek car! It just looks fast even sitting still!
You guys make some wonderful little films.
Thanks for sharing
Your story is awesome! Unfortunately I can identify with the height and leg issues. Planning on taking on a full build anyway. You're an inspiration. Thanks for sharing.
That guy was the coolest guy on here that I've seen. Awesome story. Nice car.

Amen!
Superbly shot once again.
I hope Steve's health gets better so he can keep marauding in that sweet Marauder. Awesome video.
That car is a beauty. All the best to you man.
You had to go through a lot of issues but still you went on, great spirit. I pray to God for your health. Why don't you convert it to something that can be driven without using your leg. Hope your enjoy the car for years to come. God bless you
Way cooler car then any 4 month lease Lambo. This thing has a soul

Do you hear Billy Bob Thornton too? :-)
Now I do!
Have a dream and see it through; a lovely episode and appreciate you sharing your story with us.
Tenacity personified, hat tip. Hope you are able to continue enjoying your amazing Mercury.
Cool car. Cooler story. Incredibly cool guy. Thank you for sharing!
Using fel pro head gaskets also causes over heating. The FE water jacket is large, fel pro puts a tiny hole to " help warm the engine " Idk if other manufacturers do this but the factory gasket matches the water jackets!!
"and.. 602 horsepower -n- 672 pound feet of torque, its a monster, its wonderful"
What a fine car I really like the 1964 Mercury One of my favorites I ll bet those cars would be worth quite a fortune now days
Old school muscle is the best!
Beautiful story, almost brings a tear to my eyes
Wish you the best in your health.
Dropping some love for a fellow auto enthusiast channel
The guy swap the engine trying to figure out a bigger pulley on the water pump, I will never complain again about jetting my carbs! Never give up.
First thing i thought at the beginning: there's parts on marine applications that don't work on automotive application. I'm surprised all these people who looked at the engine did not consider if the pump was pumping.

Deserves the name Petrolicious.......fantastic!!!!
The dad sandals in the sick ass whip is the best
That car is fineeeee!
That is a hell of a story!
All the best for your health.
As always, another great story about fantastic car and its current caretaker. I see the passion and the heart that was built into this machine. I love cars but I also loce music, what was the mandolin like instrument that Steve Dauria was playing?
Steve I hope your leg trouble resolve so you can continue the journey with this magnificent beast.
"My mom knew something was wrong with me" history of my life with cars
A dream car !. Cheers from Canada
My passion for cars always started here
I really really enjoy each and every single video of yours. But I wish there was more "pure" driving footage, just like 2 or 3 unedited minutes of driving to get a feel of the car and hear it. With the talking and music you can't really enjoy the sound. So can you maybe add a couple of minutes of just driving at the end of each video?
Hello, liked your car very much, a Mercury Marauder or early Turnpike Cruiser are two cars that have always been on my 'Wish List' but as a 71 year old semi- disabled guy I'm satisfied with my 2000 Mercury Marquis, one of the last of the old-school body-on-frame, V8, rear wheel drive cars. About your legs, I was worried about mine also as it was becoming more difficult to walk.. I went to the Doctor and they found out a nerve bundle in my spine was being pinched and would continue to deteriorate unless attended to. That stopped further damage but it's still difficult for me to enjoy driving my 1966 C-10with a old-school Supercharged V8 because of the clutch, Just thought you should check that out if you have not done so already. Regards, Phil Massie'
Cool looking Mercury.
Great car, even better story. To your health sir : )
3:57 That background music throughout the vid was loud, obnoxious, and drowning out what this owner was saying!
I orginally subbed because they did a great job recoding the actual sound of the cars...
Boof don't get me wrong their b-roll and filming abilities are incredible, but whoever did the audio editing in this clip needs to lay off the coffee!
That's odd. I had absolutely no problems hearing and understanding everything he said, despite english not being my native language. Might be because I'm using proper old-school floorstanding hifi speakers.
Every Petrolicious video I’ve seen has a complaint about the overbearing music, drowned out guest speaker, and overall mess of a sound mix.
Great story & great car. I wish you well.
Great dude, cool car! Could not clearly hear what he said about the engine at 8:30 - since it came from a boat, it did not have pulleys, it had...what?
Peace brother, hope your health improves. Great story, great car, thanks for sharing
Love that style
8:30 It didn't have pulleys it had...what? Cant understand what he says there, however the cooling issue should have been a very easy issue to ID and resolve, not sure why that was so difficult but oh well, glad he got it sorted out. Nice machine.
Dan Gurney was tall like you and won almost every time he went to Riverside and just about every place else . I changed to a big alt. pulley on my 428 CJ and ran a single belt because the dual belts would slip when you tromped on it .
I want to hear the car not music.
Boy, do I miss my first car... a '64 Comet Caliente hardtop; a COMPLETE "education" on four wheels.
wonderful episode , cool story ..
great story to go with a very cool car
