Vehicle Description
1967 Mercury Monterey Convertible - Marti Report - 390ci V8
w/Automatic Transmission - Power Top - Power Steering - (Please
note: If you happen to be viewing this vehicle on a website other
than our main website, it's possible that only some of our many
photographs of this car are not presented due to website
limitations. To be sure you access all the photographs, please go

machine is one of only 2,818 Monterey convertibles produced for
'67, which made this car a rare sight back then. To find a Monterey
convertible in the condition that this one is in today is a rarity!
Take a closer look, you won't be disappointed. The body of the car
was restored a number of years ago and finished with a new coat of
Jamaican Yellow paint (Code 8). The body panels are stick straight
and line up nicely. During the restoration of the body, the rear
fenders were replaced as they had not withstood the test of time
very well and had become brittle. Trim and brightwork is all in
great condition, along with the Deluxe wheel covers, that provide a
sportier look to this big 'ol car. Slide behind the wheel and
you're seated in an interior that was well optioned and luxurious
at the time the car rolled off the St. Louis, Missouri production
line in late '67. A glance around the interior reveals a simple and
highly original passenger space. Ford fans will be happy to hear
that under the hood is a 390ci V8 mated to a Merc-O-Matic automatic
transmission. A little muscle under the hood for the car that
Mercury advertised as The Man's Car. According to the Marti Report,
this car has some interesting statistics that tell a portion of its
history. Of the 130,556 Montereys produced for '67, only 2,818 were
convertibles, and only 335 were painted Jamaican Yellow. This car
was one of 335 with this paint code, and one of 268 with this paint
and trim code. Other options this car was ordered with are; Select
Shift Merc-O-Matic transmission, white sidewall rayon tires, Deluxe
wheel covers w/spinners, AM Radio with antenna, Dual rear seat
speakers, interval selector windshield wipers, Decor group, and
deluxe seat belts. This car is well equipped and is one of very few
convertibles made for the '67 model year. Along with the Marti
report, we have an array of service records, Owner's Manuals, and
brochures to go with the car. This unique and rare Monterey
convertible is ready for a new place to call home. The 390 V8,
power top, clean and straight body, and comfortable interior are
all notable features about this Merc you can enjoy for years to
come. Be sure to check out all the photos and video on our main
