Vehicle Description
This 1953 Mercury M-100, with its deep purple hue and ghost flames,
offers a striking first impression. Built for the Canadian market,
this truck isn't just a looker; it shows Mercury's unique approach
to the pickup segment. The paint, featuring ghost flames on the
hood, gives it an edge that's hard to ignore. Chrome steel wheels
wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires (245/60R15 front, 285/70R15
rear) complement its aggressive stance. The classic lines of this
Mercury, combined with modern flair, create a unique blend that
stands out in any crowd.
Step inside to find an interior that's as functional as it is
stylish. The two-tone gray fabric bench seat and matching door
panels provide a comfortable ride, while the B&M floor shifter
and custom wood center console with cupholders add a touch of
practicality. The interior metal surfaces, painted to match the
exterior, include a mural on the glove box, showcasing the truck's
unique character. An aftermarket Jensen head unit with a CD player
ensures your favorite tunes are just a button away, making every
drive a pleasure.
Powering this beauty is a Chevy 350 small block V8, featuring an
aluminum intake manifold, Edelbrock carburetor, and valve covers.
The engine bay, detailed with sheet metal finishing, houses a
chrome alternator and aluminum radiator with an electric fan,
ensuring efficient cooling. Paired with a TH350 automatic
transmission and a Ford 9" rear end, this truck offers a driving
experience that's both reliable and powerful. The front end,
swapped to a 70s Plymouth independent setup, maintains the original
solid axle and springs in the rear. Dual exhausts with Supertrapp
mufflers add a satisfying growl to its performance.
