The Mercury Eight is an automobile that was marketed by the Mercury
division of Ford between 1939 and 1951. The debut model line of the
Mercury division, Ford slotted the full-size Mercury Eight between
the Ford Deluxe (later Custom) model lines and the Lincoln. In
total, Ford assembled three generations of the Eight (before and
after World War II). During its production, the Eight offered a
full range of body styles, including coupes, sedans, convertibles,
and station wagons. For its first generation, the Eight was
produced with its own body, adapting its own version of a Ford body
for its second generation; for the third generation, the Eight
shared its body with the Lincoln. For the 1952 model year, Ford
expanded its namesake division to three nameplates and Lincoln and
Mercury to two each, with Mercury replacing the Eight with Monterey
(introduced in 1950 as a trim option), lasting until 1974.
