Vehicle Description
1951 Mercury Custom
Old school lead sled style with some modern upgrades make this
Mercury one cool classic. The only thing the car is currently
lacking is the upholstery work so take advantage of this deal while
you can. If we decide to finish out the interior the price will
only go up. All of the chrome and trim pieces have been removed
except for the bumpers which have a nice shine. The original grill
was removed and a 54 Pontiac grill added for a different look. The
only other chrome on the car is the side mirrors and spotlights.
Other customizations include the chopped top, rounded hood corners,
rounded door corners, custom Cadillac tail lights, and the frenched
head lights. All of the body work has been well done and suits the
car well. For that extra lead sled touch Mercury fender skirts were
added in the back. The car is painted in primer with custom
graphics done by a 60s/70s famous funny car artist Bob Noland out
of Ohio. The Red striping looks great as does the other graphics.
The car has a great stance and with the 4 wheel air ride the stance
is entirely adjustable. It looks great sitting low as the 57
Caddilac hubcaps tuck under the fenders.
The car is powered by a 350 Chevy motor that runs well. It is mated
to a 700R automatic transmission which smoothly sends power back to
the 9 inch rear end. A new radiator was just added to the car to
eliminate any heating issues. Power steering, power brakes and a
Vintage Ac/Heat system has been added so driving it is very
comfortable. Other upgrades include the 4 wheel disk brakes and 68
Camaro sub frame.
The interior of the car is the only thing that has been left
unfinished but it is strictly the upholstery work. The dash is all
done with aftermarket knobs for the lights, in dash AC vents and
the Billet Vintage AC controls. A tilt steering column sits in
front of the driver and is topped with an aftermarket steering
wheel. A custom center console has been made which houses the
shifter, additional AC vents and has a space cut for a stereo. The
Bench seats are currently covered in Black.
The car is easily driven as is but 1 trip to an interior shop is
all it needs to be fully finished out. Take advantage of all the
hard work so far and make it yours with a new interior!
