Description of 1949 Mercury Convertible Custom Kustom |
|
NEWS ALERT !!!!Merc has been invited to the HB Concours d' Elegance show this Sat & Sun at HB Central park so come by and take a look and met the Erickson's !!!! We are listing this Very Rare 1949 Mercury Convertible owned by ledgendary Kustom car builder Ken Erickson, If you do not know the Erickson name in Kustoms just Goggle it !!!! This is a REAL 1949 MERC CONVERTIBLE !!!! A stock 1949 Mercury convertible is valued over $120K per NADA in equal condition, This one should be well over that !!!!Its sit's on the factory very special Convertible chassie that is heavily reinforced plus a stronger X member !!!! Not a weaker coupe / sedan chassie or even weaker late model chassie swap !!!!My father Ken bought it from the late Merc man, Bill Papke, West Coast Kustom socal rep withshow heritage dating back to the mid 1970's when it was first built and has alway been garaged since !!!! Not only will this Merc steal any show it drives amazingly well plus it's 429 Merc Cyclone is tire smooking fast if thats your thing !!!!Look close at these pics and try to look past the very radical Candies & Flake paint and art work laid down and you will see there are tons of very tasteful Old School kustom body mods, plus they are done in lead !!!! Plus the accessories are real Mercury steel skirts. Real Appleton small spot lights !!!!Not just the body mods are tasteful Old School kustom take a look at the Vett grill you will see its has been made longer and the bumpers have been totally smoothed end to end !!!!This Merc drives & runs very well. It's powered by a rare 1970 Mercury Cyclone 429 same as a $$$ 429 CJ The engin has a mid cam with a very light lope coupled to a big C6 auto trans, A big 9" rear axle and the front suspension from the Mercury Cyclone with big disc brakes so you are basicly rolling on a 1970 Mercury Cyclone but with a true 1949 Mercury Convertible frame so you can not get better than a Mercury in a Mercury !!!!Oh it also has Air Ride Suspension front and rear and will lay the frame rails on the ground, plus it will lift up over 8" thanks to the hightest quaitly Slam Specialty air bags avail so steep driveways / speed bumps are no issue and did I say it drives amazingly well plus it handles very well thanks to our Supreme Cruiser rear suspension setup. This Merc drives even smoother and handles better on air ride than it did when it was on springs !!!! It also has Power brakes, Power steering, 6 way power front bench seat, Power windows, Power Folding Top, Tilt steering column, Large 12 volt air compressor, 5 gal Air tank, 22 gal 70s Mustang fuel tank, Real 1957 Caddy hub caps and Fat wide white wall radial tires, Etc. The reason this rare Convertible Merc is being offered under value is my father Ken is getting to old to enjoy driving it and is on a limited budget.This Merc could be well over a $120k car with a few thing redone. Mostly a new exaust system, Trunk compartment finished off, Engin compartment detailed and simple tlc Not in no major hurry to sell. It's an Ca licened driver ready to steal any show or just power the top down and ENJOY !!!! We have this Merc listed for sale locally and have the right to end this sell at any time !!!!
