Vehicle Description
How do you get ahead of the Mercury Lead Sled guys? How about
reaching back even further with a fully custom hot rod built from
Mercury's iconic designs. This 1940 Mercury eight-window coupe has
all those unmistakable custom touches that everyone loves, but it's
done to a vintage car that will make it a unique standout wherever
it goes.
This is related to one of the most iconic Ford street machines,
just in a rarer form. So, it does a great job of showing off its
history while also giving the coupe some modern flair. The black
paint retains a nice gloss, and it's the perfect backdrop for all
the brightwork. The special Mercury grille, teardrop headlight
bezels, full-length trim, and bumpers with bold red notching all
make for a great classic package. Of course, there are plenty of
the right custom touches, too. It has a lowered stance to make the
unique Mercury body look even sportier. And everyone loves wire
wheels on a street machine. Plus, you'll spot some great details
like the LED halo headlights and LED third brake light.
The coordinated full two-tone treatment of this interior is a nice
indication that there was a solid investment inside. A coupe like
this is a great cruiser, and so you have all the right features to
reinforce that, like the AM/FM/CD stereo and cold-blowing R134a air
conditioning. But a cruiser is also a true driver's machine. That's
why you have a Lokar shifter, sports steering wheel mounted on a
tilt column, and a full set of Stewart Warner gauges.
With all the custom touches so far, you know the builders would not
stop in the engine bay. So they installed a Ford 302 cubic-inch V8
that you'll love showing off at events. After all, it has a clean
and mean attitude within the glossy black engine bay. And this
motor really has the components to back up its performance
appearance. There's a Holley four-barrel carburetor, hi-rise
intake, Ford racing valve covers, serpentine belt drive, and
headers. It all ends in that perfect rumble from the
glasspack-style dual exhaust. Not only is it powerful, but you can
run down the road with confidence thanks to features like the
tubular A-arm independent front suspension, power steering, three
automatic transmission, and front disc brakes.
Powerful, unique, and easy to drive, this is street machine that
attracts attention wherever it goes. But it also has all the right
modern features to be as comfortable as a daily driver. This is the
complete custom build that ticks every one of your desires. Call
