The Mercury Monterey is a full-size car model that was introduced by Mercury in 1952. It would later share the same body style with the slightly more upscale Marquis and the Park Lane and Montclair until the latter two were extinguished after the 1968 model year. The Marquis-Monterey body was built on a longer wheelbase and had a longer body than the Ford LTD Ford Galaxie and Ford Custom. During its production the Monterey served as the high-end mid-range and entry-level full-size Mercury at va...rious times throughout its run. It was the only Mercury to be in continuous production throughout the 1960s GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1955 Mercury Monterey Lead Sled for consideration. This vehicle started off as what was believed to be a rust free body and frame which has been completely transformed by Charter House Collision in London Ontario. After hundreds of hour's custom fabricating and working the body this vehicle is one of a kind the entire way through and is finished in a unique custom paint job by Yosemite Sam. The power plant in this Lead Sled is a 355 cubic inch V8 and paired with a 350 turbo transmission. Some other unique features include; full hydraulic suspension with two pumps powered by four batteries for a very quick response dual exhaust with custom Hot Licks flame throwers to top off the rumble power windows power seats dual power antenna shaved door handles door poppers 1000W stereo system and a completely custom interior. This is one that you could not duplicate and is definitely a show stopper when pulling up to the scene. Please call or email us today for more information.
