A really solid, original car, this Mercury came from the factory as a Carnival Red with Black interior car with a white top, the prior owner covered it with gray primer. The car still has it's original vinyl interior, though I'd recover it. The factory top is still on the car, and a BRAND NEW STILL IN THE BOX white top w/pads comes with the sale, and the black top boot is in the trunk I haven't found any rust on the car. the 390 2v runs out very well, though it could use a new doughnut on the right bank. Tires are fair, the power steering and power brakes work very well. All windows roll up and down, doors open and shut with ease. The car came to me missing most of it's trim, and I'm working with the prior owner to acquire it, though there aren't any promises being made. This is, and will be a very special car. Lots of Fords around (I'm also working on a '64 Galaxie convertible), yet how often to you come across a Mercury? I'd love to keep it, but I need to thin out the herd. On Oct-24-14 at 07:14:32 PDT, seller added the following information: I was asked about the car's running condition, and all I can say is that I've been using it everyday and I'm having a hell of a lot of fun! Typically, it does have a little "Ford morning sickness" which means that it needs a little tranny tune up. It hauls ass, it's loud, it's big, it's ballsy, and it's WAY different than anything else on the road. Maybe I should keep it and sell the XL convertible! I've located the chrome/stainless trim pieces, and will be picking them up this Saturday, November 1st I am having a small laugh here.... I really cant understand why this car hasn't sold! #1 A mostly complete, running, driving, original 50 year old rust free big American convertible, for $3,000.00! Has anyone looked at the production numbers? in 1964, Ford built 52, 480 Galaxie convertibles vs. 2,592 Mercurys! This particular car was the first I'd ever seen in person. With a car's mortality rate, HOW MANY CAN BE LEFT? #2 People are giving me grief that I don't have the trim: Aren't you car people? E-bayers? Worst case scenario, a parts car? I am completely perplexed!
