This was in my dads collection I brought it too Phx in 2007 and stored it since covered in a garage . The car was featured in V8 times JAN/FEB 1975 .My dad purchased it from that guy .In the late 90s. It was entered into shows in wash/canada and won. He was a member of V8 clubs in wash/phx . He owned 3, 42 mercury's . That was the car he had when he got married to my mom .Sadly they both have passed .This black coupe has been sitting at least 7/8 years .So it will need attention , plus there is a dent on the driver rear fender from where a bed fell against it in storage in wash, minor not really visible .Though that's a draw back along with the fact my dad was an avid collector and to be honest he was disappointed when he received the car.and now I know why chrome is starting to flake on the front grill, only noticeable thing wrong though , car represents well no other known issues though it needs to be attended too due to sitting ie ,tires gas gas tank other things.I have all the providence included in the sale ,original paperwork 1942 misc other things `Car is in great collector condition. Car is being sold as is ,available for third party inspection given 72 hour notice and is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end auction early if needed. 1000 dollar deposit is needed at auction end via paypal and remainder is required 72 hours after auction close unless other arrangements are made with me and my bank.PS only buyers with paypal accounts and none with less than a 97% feedback need bid you won't be accepted unless we talk first. This is the real deal so don't let it go who knows how long until the next one .The reserve will be set at a modest amount so bid and I hope you win it .My dad would love to have seen it go to a good home he was a good man.If you would like additional photos taken I can get them to you via my phone thanks mikeOn Feb-22-13 at 21:24:53 PST, seller added the following information: Dear buyers I lowered the reserve to see if you would come up to the value that the car is defiantly worth ,This probably won't be listed again because market values just aren't there?So please bid accordingly and pick up this truly worth every penny bid, And enjoy the appreciation value this car will bring to you ,Please don't hesitate to inquiry about this car as only one person so far has truly inquired.I', am an open book come to phx and see it for yourself,or I'll send you pics as I have already done..Thanks Mike PS car says restored coupe it was in 1975 .Sorry it sounds misleading to me reading it back on the add.
