1950 MERCURY DELUXE, AMERICAN BEAUTY

Description for Mercury MERCURY 8 1950

IM SELLING THE SWEETEST 1950 MERCURY I HAVE EVER SEEN. IT DRIVES AS NEW, AND THE A/C MAKES IT A VERY COMFORTABLE DRIVER. ITS A VERY TIGHT CAR, WITH NO WIND NOISE, NO BODY ROLL OR DIPPING, AND WITH LOTS OF POWER, ITS JUST A PLEASURE TO DRIVE. IT HAS HAD A FRAME OFF PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION JUST OVER 9,000 MILES AGO WITH NEW BODY MOUNTS, NEW GAS TANK, NEW GAS AND BRAKE LINES, BUSHINGS AND SUSPENSSION PARTS, NEW BRAKES WHICH STOP EXCELLENT. THE CAR HAS BEEN LOWERED IN REAR. IT HAS WIDE WHITE WALL RADIALS ON IT WITH 1957 CADILLAC HUB CAPS, FENDERSKIRTS TOO. IT HAS REAL DUAL SPOTLIGHTS AND MIRRORS. ALL OF THE GAUGES HAVE BEEN REBUILT AND WORK GOOD. IT HAS A WORKING SUN TACH .THE ODOMETER WAS RE-SET TO 0 WHEN RESTORED SOME YEARS AGO. IT HAS ABOUT 9600 MILES ON IT SO FAR SINCE THE RESTORATION.THE CAR HAS A NEW 390 HOLLEY CARBURATOR AND UPGRADED INTAKE, AND EXUAST ON IT. THE PICTURES ARE CURRENT AND TELL THE STORY, WITH THE BODY MOUNTS ETC. PICTURED UNDERNEATH THE CAR. SO BUY IT WITH CONFIDENCE.THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT AND BALANCED, WITH THE UPGRADED OIL PUMP SYSTEM INSTALLED INSIDE THE ENGINE,THAT MAKE THE FLATHEADS PERFORM BETTER THAN WHEN NEW, AND INCREASE POWER AND PROTECTION AS WELL.THE ENGINE REBUILD COST WAS OVER 7,000. DOLLARS ALONE, AND I HAVE ALL RECIEPTS.THE NEW RADIATOR WAS HUGE, AND HAS AN ELECTRIC FAN.THE INTERIOR IS EXCELLENT AND HAD A NEW HEADLINER INSTALLED LAST YEAR. IT GOES DOWN THE ROAD AT CRUSING SPEEDS OF 65 MPH OR MORE, ALL DAY LONG, DUE TO THE UPGRADED 9 INCH FORD REAR END WITH THE 325 GEAR RATIO, UNLIKE MOST FLATHEADS THAT STRAIN TO RUN 60 MPH AT ALL.THERE IS NO RUST IN THIS CAR, UNDER IT, OR ANYWHERE ELSE. SEE PICTURES OF BOTTOM PANS, ROCKERS, REAR PANS, FENDERS AND FLOOR BOARDS. IT HAS HAD SOUND DEADENER INSTALLED UNDER CARPET, TRUNK, AND THROUGHOUT. THE WIRING HARNESS HAS BEEN REPLACED,AND SOME OF THE GLASS WAS REPLACED, WITH THE TINTED GOOD STUFF, WITH RUBBER AND FELT AS WELL, AND THERE IS NO WIND NOISE AT ALL WHILE DRIVING IT. ALL CHROME HAS BEEN RESTORED OR RECHROMED. LOOK AT THE PICTURES.THE ONLY NEGATIVE THING I CAN SAY ABOUT THE CAR IS THAT THE PAINT IS TIRED AND HAS A FEW SMALL BUBBLING SPOTS APPEARING ALONG THE BOTTOM OF DOORS AND FENDERS, AS IS COMMON AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF BEING PAINTED, AND IT COULD STAND A PAINT JOB, TO MAKE IT SHOW QUALITY ALL AROUND. PLEASE SEE PICTURES.THIS MERCURY DRIVES AND SHIFTS GREAT, NO VIBRATION AND NO CHATTERING AND CAN BE DRIVEN ANYWHERE WITH CONFIDENCE. IT HAS MADE SEVERAL TRIPS TO OTHER STATES THIS YEAR, WITH NO ISSUES. IT HAS AN UPGRADED AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM INSTALLED AND IT WORKS GREAT. CD CHANGER IN THE TRUNK.THE STEERING WHEEL IS THE 16 INCH NEW CORRECT MERCURY WHEEL AND STEERS LIKE A DREAM. AND OF COURSE ALL BULBS, AND ELECTRICALS HAVE BEEN CHANGED OVER TO THE 12 VOLT SYSTEM WITH A NEW ALTENATOR. IF YOU HAVE ALWAYS WANTED A NICE ORIGINAL 50 MERC WITH UPGRADES, THAT YOU CAN DRIVE AND ENJOY, NOWS YOUR CHANCE TO BUY IT BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DOES, AND YOU KNOW WHAT IT COST TO DO A FRAME OFF RESTORATION, REBUIDING THE MOTOR AND THE TRANS, AND THE CHROME, AND THE INTERIOR, AND RE-WIRING AND LIGHTS, AND SUSPENSSION, AND ALL THE MAN HOURS. YOU COULD NOT POSSIBLY BUILD THIS MERCURY FOR WHAT IM SELLING IT FOR, EVEN IF YOU HAD A NICE TIGHT BODY TO START WITH. THIS IS A PROVEN DRIVER AND SUPER NICE PIECE OF AMERICAN CAR ART GUYS,THAT NEVER GOES OUT OF STYLE, AND THERE HARD TO FIND IN THIS SHAPE, AND AT AN AFFORDABLE PRICE.
