  • 1950 Mercury Custom Coupe Candy Apple Red w/White interior.
    If you get a bunch of gearheads in a room together and they get to talking about what the ultimate hot rod is, inevitably there will be three constants on the list; the '32 Ford Hi Boy Roadster, the '32 Ford 3 window coupe and the subject of this ad; the iconic '50 Merc coupe.
    The quintessential lead sled; the Merc defined the full bodied hot rod in the '50's. Its flowing lines were a vast canvas on which customizers could practice what was a fairly new art form back in the late '40's, early 50's. Chopped, channeled, frenched and decked. That's what you did if you wanted your Merc to stand out in a crowd!
    And the sled being offered here does that in spades!
    Designed to emulate customs made famous by legends like Sam and George Barris, Gene Winfield and many others, this rolling piece of art has all of the elements mentioned above, in addition to being wrapped in stunning Candy Apple Red paint, white tuck and roll interior with a multi-carb'd Flathead under the hood! Held in a vast private collection consisting of only the finest custom automobiles, the work was done by Steve's Auto Restorations using elements of Chevrolet, Pontiac, Cadillac, Olds & Kaiser. The hardtop body has no "B" pillar, the headlights have been "Frenched", hood corners have been rounded and of course it wouldn't be a '50's custom without Appleton spots!
    The interior features white "Tuck and Roll", laminated plastic knobs and a '57 Olds steering wheel, power steering, a hidden audio system and solenoid operated doors, windows and trunk The business end features a full dress Motorhead City 1950 Flathead engine featuring an Offenhauser intake and heads and three Stromberg '97 carbs. House of Color supplied the Candy Apple over Gold exterior and "Von Dutch" style pinstriping. Wides whites with full Cadillac wheel covers completes the deal!
    It's an investment grade custom that spells upside in it's fortunate new owners future. It was good enough for James Dean! Stk #N/A

    Best looking integration of a DeSoto-type grill I've seen; it appears to be highly modified or custom made including the parking lights. ALso nice 1955 Pontiac Star Chief stainless side molding, amazing fit onto the Merc.

      Corvette Mike I know you're a Chevy guy so how did you feel about having in your shop that merc witch is part of fords
      Mid line of cars now I'm a ford guy who is respectful of all American made cars Chevy made a big mistake with the 1 Gen.
      Corvettes not offering a v8 a straight 6 ford had that one covered and that was the y block 292 and 1 of my favorite cars the
      1955 Ford T bird from 1 car guy to another old school American made cars are the best

Anyone else claiming they built this are pathetic posers! A paint job and interior color change doesn't a builder make!

Wait...as I were typing it came to mind ZZ Tops had one in one of their videos. I must be an old head & thought I were still young, well I look it & feel that way.
