For Sale at Auction: 1948 Mercury Eight in Youngville, North Carolina

This is an outstanding representation of the Mercury heritage in the convertible form. It has had a no expense spared restoration that was fully documented with all receipts that the new owner will get with purchase, as well as the factory owner's manual. It is equipped with a 239 cid L-head V8, three speed manual column shift transmission, solid front axle and live rear axle with transverse semi-elliptic leaf springs and four-wheel hydraulic drum brakes. The interior was fabricated by LeBaron Bonny to exact standards with correct patterns and fine stitching. The simulated wood grain dashboard has been faithfully recreated. This is a beautiful example from the immediate post war era that is ready for show anywhere.
