Description of 1951 Mercury Other

Moving . selling well below my costs . super. "old school" cruiser !!Note: For balance of this listing. seller will contribute up to 50%. or up to $500 toward shipping charges of vehicle. which ever is less !!Selling my very rare. nbsp;non chopped. 1951 Mercury coupe. mild custom. I have owned the car a little over two years . have never registered the car. so the new buyer will receive the title from the gentleman that sold it to me. It has stayed in my garage and down to my mechanic's garage where it has received a lot of TLC. Fluids changed with Syn. oil and coolant flush . a couple of small leaks fixed. We then added the side pipes . just for looks. and just recently installed a new set of Coker Classic wide white wall tires and new "spider" hubcaps on the front. The engine is a 350 Chevy small block crate motor. and has an aluminum intake with an Edlebrock 4bbl carb. Engine has a serpentine belt driving all accessories. including the A/C unit. I don't believe the engine/trans assy to be very old as the bar code label is still on the block. and the mounting bolts appear to be quite new. The trans is a TH400 four speed overdrive unit. and performs perfectly. We have also added a new battery and new electric fuel pump. The Merc also has power steering and power disc brakes on the front. It has a super exhaust system that just "burbles" at idle and has just the right growl at speed. The body has been lowered as shown in the pictures . but NOT chopped. The body has been "nosed" and "decked". and doorhandles "shaved". The headlights and taillights have been "frenched" in. It has a special grill and two "dummy" spotlights as shown. It has a modern steering column from a modern Mercury car. and has tilt wheel. The seats. door panels & headliner have all been done in a very high end "leather look" vinyl . The underside of the car has been preserved with black paint or undercoat. The floors are original and show no sign of being rusted or replaced. The trunk floor and tire well also show no sign of being rusted or replaced. The paint job is older and has some touch up spots and a couple of chips. The radio does not work !Have only gone to a couple of local shows as the car is not registered . but was awarded 1st place in custom division at local show. This is a very. very nice turn key cruiser that turns heads where ever you go. This car is sold as is. where is. Buyer responsible for transportation. Car doesn't move until all paperwork clears !Note: since previous listing. hood has been removed and is being louvered & repainted. New picture soon !! Also. a matching spare tire cover has been added !!E-Bay listing can end at any time as the vehicle is for sale locally !!
