Description for Mercury Monterey 1963

1963 Mercury Monterey Breezeway: The 1963 Mercury may have had its origins in Elwood Engel's Attaché, hich was a 1961 Lincoln design proposal. When company chiefs realized how good this design was, hey designated it  for the '64 Ford and transferred the intended Ford design to the '63 Mercury. The configuration for these new Breeze­ways copied the 1958-60 Lincoln Continentals in that it used a reverse-slant backlight with a wide power-retracting  center section. Also like the Lincolns, he base of each roof pillar was spruced up with a decorative ribbed panel terminating in a short chrome spear that trailed out onto the deck. A thick bright molding framed the rear window.The  revival of the Breezeway was a product planning scheme to further separate Mercury from Ford when they still had the same inner-body panels and chassis frames. Ford's full-sized cars continued to use a Thunderbird-like roof with wide  forward-leaning sail panels. A return to a concave grille and six round tail-lights (as in '61) were part of the bargain, ut bodysides got flatter than they had been for the previous two years. Bright strip moldings highlighted the  upper body, rom the tips of the front fenders to the tiny outwardly canted tailfins. The topper -- quite literally -- was the return of the Breezeway roof for all full-sized sedans and hardtops.   

There aren't many '60s classics that can be purchased this inexpensively and yet offer such great looks and fun Sunday driving. This beautiful Breezeway has recently received a thorough cosmetic restoration without going overboard.

The most recent owner performed a complete repaint in its original Turquoise & White. The interior received new carpet, eadliner, oor panels, nd seat covers. The original dash remains uncut and features all the original gauges and radio. Once the cosmetics were complete, e addressed some minor mechanical needs to shorten the new owner's Things-2-Do list. These items included a new water pump, ew fan, ew radiator, nd full inspection of the  lights and fuses to ensure everything was working properly. The powerful 390 V8, ulti-drive Automatic, ower Steering, ower Brakes, nd the ability to drop the rear window at the flip of a switch all add to the joy of driving this classic Mercury.
