Rare Mercury M100 Pickup | Final Year of Production | Original
360c.i V8 | C6 Automatic Transmission | Power Brakes | Power
Steering | Deluxe Marti Report | New Arrival!
LaFontaine Classic Cars is excited to offer this Holly Green over
Black, head turning 68' Mercury Pickup! The 1968 Mercury M-100 is a
rare, Canadian-exclusive half-ton pickup. As the final year of
production, it was mechanically identical to the Ford F-100 but
featured distinctive Mercury badging. These highly collectible
trucks are prized today for their unique history. Built at Ford's
Oakville, Ontario plant, and exclusively sold in Canada through
Lincoln-Mercury dealerships. With only 7,720 examples being built
these were not common in the day and are exceedingly hard to find
today!
This truck was delivered to New WestministerBC and remained there
from 1968-1983 before moving to Ontario (84'-26') and was then
brought to MI just earlier this year. This is a great example of a
well-maintained truck that was essentially a survivor before having
the exterior repainted in the correct Holly Green some 30 years ago
and it still shows very well today with only minimal imperfections.
The interior remains highly original and is in great condition for
its age! The only variation from stock is a replacementAM/FM
Radio.
Under the hood boasts a freshly serviced 360c.i. V8 and adding to
the drivability are power brakes, power steering, and factory dual
fuel tanks with a combined 44 gallon capacity!
The underside of this pickup is solid and free of any rot! It shows
signs of the regular consumables having been replaced over the
years and overall the condition matches that of a well kept
original truck. The 9inch rear end out back spins a 3.25 gear while
the truck rolls smooth on a newer Cooper Whitewall Radial 15in
Tires. This truck is a pleasure to drive, and does everything it's
supposed to do well! In our short time as caretakers its been
inspected, serviced and driven 250+ miles without issue!
Included with the truck is a Deluxe Marti report, Clean MI Title,
and a dust cover.
