Up for auction is a 1960 Mercurey Monterey 2 door hardtop!!!! These are EXTREMELY hard to find these days!!!! In fact the ONLY one I have ever seen for sale is also currently listed on Ebay, which is already done, so it is thousands of dollars more. The VIN says that the motor in this is a 383ci, it looks to be correct. The car needs to be completely gone through mechanically, it has been stored for quite a while. When I opened the hood, the valve covers where off, looked like someone took them off to paint them, along with the air cleaner. They are just sitting on the motor, so you need the valve cover hardware and gaskets, and yes there was oil in it while it was stored... I got the motor turning over, but the cam is flat. So be aware that you are looking at the whole nine, motor, trans (most likely), brakes, interior. Believe me I would LOVE to keep this, unfortunately I need what money I have for a bus project I am working on. If I had the funds to do everything correctly, it wouldn't be much of a problem to knock this out in a month, not counting for paint. Oh, I also want to mention, that whatever jackass owned this before me decided to lower the rear leaf-springs with a torch.... so those need to be popped on as well (you can still get them at NAPA). Front windshield has a crack as well, I found several new in Texas. Now for the good!!!The body on this thing is PERFECT! NO RUST!!!! EVERYTHING IS SOLID!!!! one dent on the passenger rocker, and a dent in the rear bumper (which would take all of 5 min to knock out) that is it. This is one of the best starters for a project that I have seen. All I wanted to do with this was get it running and stopping, and leave the exterior alone, and have a sweet sled. Hot, hotrod, rod, sled, kustom, custom, Rat, ratrod, project, chopped, bagged, slammed, dropped Also, this car comes with California Lien Sale paper work, so check your state DMV about getting the new title. Here it isn't a big deal, I just didn't want to spend money titling and registering it if I am just going to sell it. SO BE AWARE! Please call me if you have any questions, 808-692-2372 Rick... Leave a message, and I will call you back. I want to be as transparent as possible with this, so if you have any concerns, PLEASE ASK! I forgot to mention, it comes with a set of custom wheels.. The fronts are on the car and the rears need rubber.. Some generic mags are on the rear right now. See the pics Some folks have been asking questions through Ebay, which is fine... I would prefer it if you called me 808-692-2372.. I don't get on the computer that much.
