1941 Mercury Custom Burgandy 350 V8 60601 Miles
BODY OVERVIEW: The body on this 1941 Mercury is clean, straight, and has been kept up. When this vehicle was customized, someone clearly took their time with it by retaining the convertible top mechanisms. Not an easy feat when doing a chop on a convertible! This car was originally customized in 1959, and refreshed in the 1970s and 1980s, so it does have some minor imperfections that come with age.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: After a repaint in 1970 in Honduras Maroon, the paint is still in nice overall condition.There are very few paint imperfections, and these are the minor types of imperfections that appear after this many years of use. The paint has a nice shine, and looks pretty good for being 30+ years old!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: The red and white custom interior is in great shape, and the majority of the interior is believed to be original from 1960 when the customization was completed. There are some components that have been added since the original customization, including the front seat, steering wheel & column, and stereo which all appear to be additions from the 1970s/1980s. This car even has air conditioning and power windows!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under the hood is a Chevrolet 350 with an Edelbrock Trans Am intake manifold and a 4-barrel carburetor. The 350 is hooked up to a TH350 transmission, which was installed in the 1980s at the same time as the engine. Other notable mechanical features include a 1960 Ford Thunderbird 9" rear w/ 3.50 rear gears, front disc brakes, and Fatman independent front suspension. Power rack and pinion steering on a GM tilt column make handling comfortable. Last but not least, this puppy has that classic street rod rumble courtesy of dual glasspack mufflers.
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: How timeless it is! Street rods have a tendency to look dated fairly rapidly, but this one has a certain look that doesn't seem to date it.
