Vehicle Description
Feast your eyes on this absolutely stunning 1949 Mercury Custom
Convertible, a fully restored example of one of the most iconic
post-war American cruisers ever built. Finished in classic deep
black paint with a tan cloth convertible top and a beautifully
tailored red and cream two-tone interior, this Mercury is the
definition of timeless style, craftsmanship, and cool. The 1949
Mercury marked a major turning point in automotive design with its
sleek "pontoon" fenders, integrated body lines, and low-slung
proportions that would go on to influence an entire generation of
custom car builders. This example has been meticulously restored,
with outstanding attention to detail from top to bottom. The body
is laser-straight, the chrome and stainless trim gleams
brilliantly, and the fit and finish are truly show quality. Under
the hood, the Mercury retains its classic heartbeat with a
smooth-running Flathead V8, paired to a three-speed manual
transmission with overdrive for easy cruising. The engine bay is
highly detailed and clean, giving the car not only vintage power
but also the confidence to hit the open road or local car show with
pride. The tan canvas convertible top is in excellent condition,
fitting snugly over the frame and operating smoothly. Drop the top
and reveal the show-stopping red and cream interior, which has been
fully reupholstered in high-quality materials that stay true to the
original design. The dash is painted to match and loaded with
beautifully restored gauges, original-style switchgear, and just
the right touch of chrome accents. The wide bench seats, plush
carpets, and two-tone door panels make this interior every bit as
stylish as it is comfortable. From the wide whitewall tires to the
period-correct hubcaps and tasteful finishing touches throughout,
this Mercury delivers a factory-fresh look with a touch of custom
flair. Whether you're a classic car enthusiast, a collector of
vintage convertibles, or someone who simply appreciates top-shelf
craftsmanship, this '49 Merc hits all the right notes. If you're
looking for a fully restored, turn-key convertible that oozes
post-war Americana and commands attention wherever it goes, this
1949 Mercury Custom Convertible is ready for your garage. Contact
