Selling a rare all metal 1940 Mercury Club Coupe Convertible resto-mod. The previous owner and builder had bought the car in 1964. It is all metal and has no filler anywhere. The original metal hood was louvered for extra air flow/cooling and looks stunning.
The powertrain is a 4.6L V8 and automatic transmission from a 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII. The twin shock rear end is from a Jaguar XK-E and has upgraded larger rear discs. The Kugel Komponents front end also has coil-overs and power disc brakes. The chassis is the original Mercury chassis and was reinforced during the restoration.
The power convertible top is made from very nice Mercedes Benz convertible material. The top has been put down maybe 5 times in the last 10+ years so it has zero creases and is in great shape! The rear window is also glass. The upgraded front and rear seats are upholstered in tan leather and a custom center console was built for the car.
A few other things to note is that the car has a beautiful custom gauge cluster, power seats, an upgraded head unit and speakers. The car also has remote door poppers with releases on the key remotes, dashboard and under the hood.
The car is a show winner and super driveable. Asking price is $56K, all reasonable offers and trades are always considered.
