@@kyle8523 Mom and Dad had a 1957 210 four-door sedan, 1962 Bel Air four-door sedan, 1965 Impala four-door sedan (then Chevrolet added the Caprice trim option) a 1969 Impala four-door sedan (which I was allowed to drive from time to time). I believe the 1965 full-size Chevrolet was an all-time sales leader, beating Ford.
I had this identical car (mine was a 4 dr) and it was a remarkably comfortable ride...sort of like driving a waterbed. The only issue I had was with the vacuum lines....this model had headlight doors and door locks that were all vacuum operated and one cracked or leaking line made the system lose enough pressure that none of the vacuum accessories would function properly. Still, a true luxury classic that I remember fondly.
@@bobsmith9679 Unfortunately not....45 yrs ago I traded it in an another new car....didn't have the money or room to hang on to it. Too bad... that car was superb.
When i saw this Marquis Brougham 2 door hardtop in 1971, it was green like this one we see now, i wss 19 at the time and i thought that car that colorwas absolutely beautiful except the 71 had the lounge seating front seats! There were great looking fords and mercurys too!!
I grew up in this exact car from second grade in 1974 until after high school. Idk why they sold the Chrysler Imperial Crown. It was the baddest car. But this was very very nice!
I remember the Mercury television commercial for the 1970s Mercury Marquis Brougham Four-door Sedan, there was a couple sitting there they were sitting in the dark green back seat, drinking cups of tea in fine china, and not spilling a drop, emphasizing the quiet smooth ride of this luxe-boat... the commercial announcer said "We have Mr and Mrs Dabney Coleman of Beverly Hills with us... blahblahblah. I wondered: Who are these people? What makes them so special? It's my Mercury that makes them special, right? To be fair, Coleman later became famous for his role as the evil boss-man in "9-to-5" lol
Wow! That thing looks like it's about a block long! Amazing condition for a car that was built the same year I graduated from high school. They sure don't make them like that anymore!
The color, the black vinyl roof, the plush crisscross design on the interior and beautiful detailing design on the doors, to the rear wheel covers and low rear lights and hidden headlights make this one of the most beautiful cars I’ve ever seen! I wish I could have been around when these cars ruled the roads, I was born too late!
My music teacher had one almost the same as this when I was a kid in school. Hers was a 4 dr and a 400. Every other way, identical. I remember getting rides to band practice in that big boat. Brings back memories.
I was a busboy at a restaurant at age 16 when this car was out. One of the banquet waitresses had one of these and I offered to wax it for her...OMG...it took ALL DAY!
I have seen a lot of car dealers both physically and online you have the best condition products that I have noticed and when and if I get the funds to acquire just one of your automobiles I will be there
One of the best interiors of all - ever! Agreed with ddkoda below, '71-2 large Mercurys are best-looking of the 1970s. Symphonic flow, poetic integration of design elements.
Father had a 74 . In Chicago we took a head collision from 2 running from a gas station robbery. 50 head on Us dead stop making a left . Me and grandma lifted from the the back whole rear went up and down . Mom hit her nose on the rear view mirror. On impact looking and having conversation with grandma . Only damage was the header panel cracked Leaking radiator and drove home . The Datsun. We’ve seen the horrible stories of that daily . But it saved our lives definitely that day. 429 is a beast of a motor 1977 460 wasn’t even close
I had a 1971 same color . I bet some lucky person has bought this one ! Mine was a 4 door . I have a 1971 Marquis in my garage I have been working on or did until my back went out .
Had a buddy when I was about 16 that had one of these as his first car it was brown and I think he paid $200 in the late 70's. It wasn't in nearly as good as shape we were always tinkering with it to keep it running.
dad had a 4 door 460, same collor pretty dam close to the same year. they rides like a floating couch. it's a living room on wheels very comfortable ride. po mans limo
Enorme, ampuloso, elegantisimo y, francamente, primoroso. Mucho más Lincoln que Mercury y todo un campeón de la sobrevivencia. Un delicioso modelo, nada común. Quien lo adquiera, se lleva una joya sobre ruedas.
Wish they still built nice cars like this
Looks like A pot plant exploded all over it
Buy this one!

I know right
A car you can live in. An AM Radio. What a beauty.
'71 and'72 Mercury Marquis Broughams are my favorite styled Mercurys of the early '70's. All of the styling elements flow together so well.
This is a Rolls Royce of the 1970s. Unbelievably Beautiful. Love the Green and especially the Pattern Seats.
That Green is so awesome! Love the pattern in the seats and door trim too!
When Mercury still showed it was part of the LINCOLN-MERCURY DIVISION.
Now that’s a land yacht! I drove a 1971 Ford LTD four-door sedan for driver’s education. HUGE!
You’re lucky. I got to drive a ninth gen impala 😂

Reminds me of the original Hawaii 5/0 Lt. Commander Steve McGarrett's Mercury Marquis Brougham. Bookem' Danno!
Like diving your living room down the road. I remember this car very well passed everything but gas stations

Omg 😍 💚 at first site. Stunning Mercury!
What a superior Mercury , some have the high seat back option or individual split seats, so many choices back then!
My father bought one of these, I think around 1976. It was like driving a cruise ship.
These cars were absolutely massive! Imagine a 2 door this size being made today.
I was 12 years old in 1972, this is a very nice kept car thank you for sharing this video.
my dad was 7 and I had 38 more years till I was born
I'm 12 as of right now and dream of owning an LTD or a marquis
Was born in 71, BUTTTTTTTT I bet that land yacht was a pure blast to drive.
I bought mine in 1975.$1,700 wholesale. I was 18 years old 429 great car so remember it
Wow wow. Absolutely amazing!
Shaft and Superfly would approve! 👍
Pretty sure Archie Bunker would give it a thumbs up a well!
Amazing people can keep these beauties looking so Amazing for this long
What a clean merc floating on a cloud you could fit 2 of the cookie cutter car's of today in the trunk👍👍👍👍😂😂
Now that's thats luxury..

The Datsun. We’ve seen the horrible stories of that daily . But it saved our lives definitely that day. 429 is a beast of a motor
1977 460 wasn’t even close
Looks like it just rolled off the factory line. Very rare to see such a vehicle in this remarkable condition. Stunning !
Absolutely love this..I would take it on the beltway to get the REAL experience
Awesome! When pride in American quality and workmanship still mattered.
Belongs in a museum, could stare at it all day,
My dad had a ‘71 four door hardtop in this colour. Same seats. Beautiful. I would love to have one.
Luxurious and spacious
Dashboard was fabulous in the mercury Marquis Brougham!!!
That is beautiful...very sharp!!!!... I would definitely love ❤️ to have that!!!!!
Wow, it remains a beautiful car all the time
That's a sweet ride I wouldn't mind having three of them in my driveway
What a beauty !!!!!
I had a 1971 same color . I bet some lucky person has bought this one ! Mine was a 4 door . I have a 1971 Marquis in my garage I have been working on or did until my back went out .
That's when cars had style.
Had that almost exact same interior in my '72 Chrysler New Yorker.. must have been a very popular interior across the car maker's lines that year.
Loved this car back in 1972 when I was 20 years old! Thought it was the most beautiful car on the road!
absolutely fantastic!!!
Damn, this car is HUGE.
Yes. A land yacht. Strange he forgot to show the anchor.
Simply breathtaking
Beautiful.
Had a buddy when I was about 16 that had one of these as his first car it was brown and I think he paid $200 in the late 70's. It wasn't in nearly as good as shape we were always tinkering with it to keep it running.
Need to tell Adam of Rare Classic Cars about this he is over in Detroit Michigan
I love this car
Look at the size of that thing. Holy smokes!
Beautiful car!

My dad had one of these in back in the '80s that was just as nice... It was a dark brown metallic with dark brown leather.
Amazing.
that is one giant car!
Great interior
wow almost half the video is of the interior unlike the last few I watched.
I had one identical to this, even the same color! Great car...

Nice merc very nice
I had a 73 4 door with a 460
That car is beautiful would love to have it
I would trade my 2018 Nissan pro4X for this car. I love it. We had Lincolns growing up in the 70s.
Love those 70's door buzzers. 😠
Wish I could buy it! Nuff said!
Waftability off the scale.....😍😍😍
Perfekt ✅️ ✅️ ❤
O>M>G>!!!!
very nice old cruser but it's only got an AM raido I thought everybody was all in for AM/FM stereo raido by 1972
Some of those stereo options were expensive, even for those times. 😐
Hermoso. Regio.
That's a Jack Lord, Hawaii 5-O type car. I had a four door in the early 1980s but I couldn't afford to fill the gas tank. Traded it for a Vega.
Merci
We had a lot more respect for ourselves when this car was being built. Now, we seem to have turned into a bunch of automotive girlie men!!
good for the drive in theatre
Imagine picking this car up from the Dealer, straight out of the factory. Beautiful car.
P.S. Where did the U.S.A. go wrong in car design?
Letting people dictate mpg requirements.
Sweet...
Nice
