1959 Mercury Monterey
Car History
We have a very rare 1959 Mercury Monterey here at Adventure
Classics that was the base model for 1959. Production was only a
few thousand with very few left in existence.
List price was only $2547 back then for this big cruiser. The
shipping weight was only 3790 pounds.
Engine & Drivetrain
Under the hood you will find the factory "Y Block" 312 cubic inch
engine with 210 horsepower and an automatic transmission, factory
correct original blue air cleaner, chrome valve covers (with the
original blue ones in the trunk), and Power Steering,
It is painted the original factory blue and everything in the
factory looking stock engine compartment looks as it should.
Interior
The interior looks all original with its light green painted dash
housing the original gauges, original green steering wheel, all
fantastic chrome and stainless, the factory cloth front and rear
seats, door panels and headliner, are all like they were back in
1959.
Exterior
Our Merc has a very nice light beige paint job that flows over the
concave rocket shaped scallops outlined by chrome moldings that
highlight the car's side treatment. They were further decorated
with three vertical chrome bands near the tail light ends.
The bumpers have great chrome, trim, stainless, and glass as well
as this 1959 is a virtual rust free example and the undercarriage
is factory original.
All models used identical stylish finned wheel covers and came with
14 inch wheels and thin white wall tires as ours does. It also has
the Original Owners Keys and the Owner's Manual too.
