Vehicle description
Rare! Rare! Rare! this 1950 all original Mercury convertible (Canadian version) I was told just a little over 800 units was sent to them. Not to many left after 67 years. This cars known to fame came from James Dean in "Rebel Without a Cause", Sylvester Stallone in "Sly" and the famous movie "Grease" with John Travolta. This is a very collectable solid body and frame. . don"t even see much surface rust on the frame. Last owner had it in his collection for over 18 years in a climate controlled garage. When he purchased and took it home his friends told him they would kill him if he chopped and customize it due to its rarity and original rust free condition. So he purchased 3 other Mercury"s and customized them instead. I took off the original front grille which is safe in the trunk of the car. I started to replace it with the 1949 grille which I liked better (both grilles shown in pictures). If you wanted to keep it all original you would need to have the hydraulics checked out which runs the power windows, seat and convertible top. Yes power seats,windows and top! ! But if you wanted to customize it not to worry and what a solid start. The carburetor needs a rebuild but just put a little gas in the carb and it runs and sounds grreeeaaaaat. This car is being sold in as is condition and should be viewed in person. Please don"t bid if you don"t have the cash. Make a reasonable OFFER! !
