Vehicle Description
Maxmotive is on Cloud 9 to bring you this nifty 1951 Mercury Eight
Coupe Custom from our Pittsburgh showroom. It sports the correct
255ci Flathead V8 and the optional Mercomatic 3-speed automatic
transmission. This quintessential lead sled is a rolling 1951
Mercury Accessories catalog. It not only comes with the original
1951 Owner's Manuals (for both USA and Canada) and Accessories
Catalog, most of the items in the catalog have been installed on
the car. Some update the car, others customize it. Cool items like
the Chrome dual Exhaust Extensions, Road Lamps, Exterior Visor,
Fender Shields, Custom Steering Wheel, and Wheel Trim Rings add to
the custom feel of the car. While the Back-up Lights, Gas Tank
Lock, Non-glare Rearview Mirror, and Windshield Washers bring this
Merc up to date for safe driving today. Other goodies do both, like
the Seeing-Eye Spotlight or the dual Outside Rearview Mirrors. But
the Daddy-o of them all has to be the dash mounted two-speed Record
Player. You can spin the wax to help you relax! And the car makes
its own music as well with the programmable Whoopie Horn that plays
patriotic, country, pop, or school songs. Finished in Tomah Ivory,
it looks sharp with all the gold trim, chrome, and hand-applied
pinstriping. The color scheme is carried inside with white seats
and yellow trim, with thick carpeted Mercury floor mats. Extras
include a chrome tissue dispenser and a Moon gas pedal. Cruising in
style also means dependability. Savvy upgrades such as a Mr. Gasket
fuel regulator, MSD ignition, Optima battery with 12V alternator,
and an electric cooling fan help keep you moving whether on the
highway or in a parade. A car that inspired its own genre in the
automotive world, here's a beautiful 1951 Mercury Eight Custom that
has been loved in the same family for many years, and is now
offered for sale at Maxmotive. See details and high resolution
