THIS IS A SUPER NICE MILDLY CUSTOMIZED, 1956 MERCURY MONTEREY 2 DOOR HARD TOP. IT IS A FRAME UP,BODY OFF FULL RESTORATION ON AN ORIGINAL RUST FREE OKLAHOMA CAR. ALL ORIGINAL FOMOCO STEEL. THE ENGINE IS A 289 FORD., TOTALLY RECONDITIONED A FEW MILES AGO. THE TRANSMISSION IS A FULLY RE BUILT FOMOCO C-4. NO CHEVY TRANSPLANT HERE! CAR HAS AN ESTIMATED 5000 MILES ACCUMULATED SINCE THE BUILD. SAD STORY. THE MAN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROJECT EXPIRED BEFORE HE COULD ENJOY IT VERY LONG. IT WAS THEN SOLD TO MY VERY GOOD FRIEND WHO, SHORTLY THEREAFTER, SUFFERED A TERMINAL HEART FAILURE. NOW THE SURVIVING LADY HAS NO NEED FOR THE CAR. SHE HAS ASKED ME TO HELP DISPOSE OF IT. WE HAD IT LISTED ON E BAY SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. THE RESERVE WAS NOT REACHED. NOW THE OWNER IS READY TO SELL, THE RESERVE IS CONSIDERABLY LOWER THAN THE HIGHEST BID RECIEVED IN THAT LISTING! IF YOU BID ON IT THEN,IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 20 MILES SINCE. NOW YOU CAN BUY IT AT YOUR PRICE! FOR YOU OTHERS, THE PAINT IS JET BLACK AND HOT PINK. THE INTERIOR MATCHES THE EXTERIOR. THERE IS A FULL CONTINENTAL KIT,DUMMY SPOTS, FENDER SHIRTS, LANCER LOOK WHEEL COVERS,DUMMY SIDE PIPES. A VERY GOOD COPY OF A 50-60'S ERA HOLLYWOOD CUSTOM! THIS CAR HAS RECIEVED TROPHYS EVERY TIME IT HAS BEEN ENTERED IN A CAR SHOW. THERE ARE NO BLEMISHES ON THIS ONE. YOU CAN DRIVE IT HOME AND START GETTING ALL OF THE TROPHYS IN A NEW LOCATION! OR JUST ENJOY DRIVING IT! THIS ONE SITS RIGHT, LOOKS RIGHT, DRIVES RIGHT. IT IS ALSO PRICED RIGHT! BID NOW OR WISH YOU HAD LATER! FOR QUESTIONS, CALL ME, JIM COE, AT 405-364-6997. CHECK MY FEED BACK. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. I TELL IT LIKE I SEE IT. OF COURSE, I WOULD PREFER YOU TO COME SEE IN PERSON. THAT IS NOT ALWAYS EASY TO DO,BUT YOU WILL BE HAPPY WITH THIS ONE. THE CAR IS LOCATED IN THE OKLAHOMA CITY METRO AREA.On Jul-27-10 at 13:43:59 PDT, seller added the following information: I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT I HAVE MIS-DESCRIBED THE TRANSMISSION. IT IS A CRUISE O MATIC, NOT A C-4, BUT IT HAS BEEN RECONDITIONED.THE MILEAGE INDICATED ON THE ODOMETER IS 71,991. IT IS BELIEVED TO BE THE ENTIRE MILEAGE OF THE CAR. IT WAS NOT RESET. AND IT HAS BEEN DRIVEN APPROXIMATLY 5000 MILES SINCE THE RESTORATION. HOWEVER, IN NO WAY ARE WE STATING THE CAR TO BE A TRUE MILEAGE OF 71,991. THE TRUE MILEAGE IS UNKNOWN!On Aug-01-10 at 16:47:42 PDT, seller added the following information: THE MERCURY HAS NOW REACHED ITS RESERVE PRICE. THE HIGH BIDDER AT THE END OF THE AUCTION GETS IT. BID NOW! THANKS, JIM.
