Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to present this clean 1949
Mercury Eight Sedan. The 1949 Mercury is a classic of American
motoring with appeal from original vintage collectors to hot rod
and custom builders the world over. A stalwart of design and
performance when it hit the scene back in 1949, the mercury
immediately garnered a rabid following. This 1949 Mercury Eight
sedan is a great example of how these cars were new. Clean lines
and choice accessories like the window visor and white wall tires
plus very nice maroon paint - with only minor scratches and chips.
Overall it's very presentable for local car shows or just cruising
around. An easy Cosmetic restoration or base for a full on custom
build. The car exhibits no rot and has great chrome and no major
leaks. The 255ci flathead V8 runs smooth ad the three speed manual
transmission shifts well. The interior is finished in marron with
cream accents and is rip and tear free. Overall this 1949 Mercury
Eight Sedan is a solid, great running, late 40s car just waiting on
a new owner. Hurry and make this piece of American Automotive
history yours today!
