Great to Look at; Great to Drive!
The yellow paint—which is a color change—is generally in nice condition with some slight imperfections. The just-detailed paint gleams and shows off the car’s great lines.
The chrome is in very good condition, giving a wonderful finish to this Mercury convertible.
The underside of the car appears free of rust [other than surface rust], with some evidence of corrosion maintenance in past years.
The seat upholstery is in excellent condition, and the door panels are in very good condition as well. The interior looks almost new.
The black convertible top (with matching boot cover) looks like new and has probably never seen rain. Both it and the rear window are in excellent condition. Additionally, the power top functions as designed, making putting it up and down effortless.
The 351 V-8 engine runs and drives like a new one. It starts right up and has plenty of power to make this a legitimate pony car.
The automatic transmission shifts properly and smoothly as one would expect in Mercury’s legendary sports convertible.
The redline tires speak to the effort to keep the car “as original” and are mated to 14” Chrome Magnum 500 wheels.
The power brakes—disc on the front--work properly and smoothly in bringing the car to a rapid and safe stop.
The interior is upgraded with a wood-rimmed Lecarra steering wheel.
This car also has power steering, and, factory air-conditioning (not presently blowing cold). The recent replacement radio may work but would need a look-over to be sure.
All of the engine/systems monitoring gauges/lights (temperature, fuel, amp and oil pressure) work properly. Similarly, the lights, windshield wipers and turn signals all work as does the speedometer and tachometer. The horn and dash lights don’t appear to be working.

With the top up or down, this ’69 XR 7 is a delight. Whether at a local car show, dinner at a special restaurant or a night out for ice cream, you can be assured that this car will be noticed and admired by everyone who sees it.
