1947 MECURY EIGHT CONVERTIBLE What Make This Vehicle Special
Mercury is a defunct division of the American automobile
manufacturer Ford Motor Company. With that in mind, the 1947
Mercury Convertible we have at Skyway Classics is not your typical
Merc. It has had a Total Frame-Off Restoration and looks as
original and even been used in 2 Hollywood Movies and 4 TV
Commercials including one with Elly May Clampett! It runs the Flat
Head V8 Engine, 3-speed Transmission, full Leather Interior and tan
convertible top. Features 1947 Mercury Convertible Total Frame-Off

Specs Almost every piece of this 1947 Mercury Convertible has been
redone including the Flat Head V8 Engine with its carb, black
factory air cleaner, generator, and those iconic Flatheads that you
see when you look at the engine. It does have a performance coil, a
black stock looking battery in the battery box, and is backed by
the 3-speed Transmission while riding on its yellow painted factory
looking steel wheels with chrome hubcaps and the wide-whitewall
tires. Interior No money was spared with the complete restored Full
Leather Interior either. It starts with maroon leather seats and
matching door panels, brown painted factory dash with the correct
gauges, controls, and trim, factory tan steering wheel, three-speed
shifter on the steering column, tan carpeting, as well as the tan
convertible top. Exterior The Merc has a pleasing subtle shade of
yellow paint over the graceful full fendered body, nice chrome
front and rear bumpers, factory brightwork and trim, exquisite hood
emblem, door handles, and Mercury badging. Conclusion The original
looking restored 1947 Mercury Convertible movie star car was a
great car in its day, but this one we have at Skyway Classics is so
well done, the early ones pale in comparison. This Merc needs to be
seen to be believed and you will love it at first site. Disclaimer
