Description of 1961 Mercury Monterey

1961 Mercury Monterey 2 door coupeThese mercs are basically a factory custom Ford Galaxie. Most parts other than trim interchange.
57,400 miles
Z code 390 Big Block, Runs really strong, cool and smooth.Merc - o - matic 3 speed auto.
Car runs drives and stops great. I would not be afraid to drive anywhere.
New upper and lower ball joints and bushings up front. Radiator recently gone through.Newer bias wide whitesNew shocks, Recently lowered 2". Car rides very very smooth. -Floats on a cloud.I added seat belts to the rear seat for my kids.Factory AC is all there, does not work.All lights, gauges, everything else all works like new.
Unbelievable clean original car. Looks to be mostly original paint and interior from what i can tell. Has minor nicks, bumps and scratches, one dent in the trunk lid. But, paint shows incredibly well for its age. Does need a dash pad, they are remanufactured and available. It has perfect seats, great carpet and really good headliner. The trunk has the original cardboard panels still intact and spare tire.
I have not been able to find and rust on any of the floors, rockers, trunk pan etc. It does have one nickel size spot on each side behind the rear wheel, but they are very minor.
This car has such cool authentic old feel to it, that i think it is perfect as is. It could be very quickly turned into a full on show car without a whole lot more than a spot and shoot.
Really hate to sell her!$14k
