Vehicle Description
What we've got here is something that really sticks out! This
fantastic 1962 Mercury Monterey is a really sharp car, with
two-tone mint-green and white paint and a beautiful matching
interior. Powered by a 390 C.I. V8 breathing through a 4-barrel
carburetor, this '62 Mercury sure is quick! That V8 is backed up
well, putting power to the pavement through the use of a
smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission with a B&M
"T-Grip" shifter. What really sticks out on this Monterey is the
two-tone color scheme, with the "Mint Green" exterior paint
complimented perfectly by white undertones and "Monterey"
lettering. That exterior color scheme even extends to the interior,
where matching two-tone bench seats await the driver looking just
as nice as they are comfortable. Options fitted to this mean old
Mercury include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, a
heater + defroster, a B&M "T-Grip" shifter, vent windows, and
an aggressive-sounding dual exhaust system. This '62 Mercury is one
sharp car that looks great, but it drives even better. We're sure
it'd look great sitting in your driveway.
