Mercury is an American automaker that has long since been mothballed. But the storied brand has been pivotal in the development of America's automotive landscape. The brand was sat between Ford's mainstream lineup and the more luxurious offerings of Lincoln, while the Town Sedan was a medium-priced entrant to the lineup. It was the mid-market family car of its day, and offered a four door sedan in a conventional yet timeless design. Our featured car has reportedly been meticulously restored and features a host of new components that should ensure trouble-free running for many more years to come. This 1939 Mercury Town Sedan features a 350 cubic inch V8 engine, an automatic transmission, and a reported 55,000 miles on the odometer.

Extra sound deadening insulation has been installed for a comfortable ride, while an air conditioner has also been fitted. You'll also find seat belts too.
Engine
The heart of this 1939 Mercury Town Sedan is a 350ci crate engine. It sends power to the rear wheels via a 3-speed automatic transmission with a floor-mounted shifter. The engine breathes through a 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor, and is started via a high-torque starter. The engine features new hoses, lines, belts, pulleys, bolts, screws, and hardware, as well as a 12 volt electrical system and an aluminum radiator. Power steering and power disc brakes make this an easy to drive classic.
The 1951 Mercury is one of the most iconic foundations in American custom car culture, forever associated with the legendary lead sled movement and some of the most memorable custom builds ever created.

Built on a Chevrolet frame and showing off a dramatic 5-inch chopped top, this Mercury captures the unmistakable silhouette that made customized early-1950s Mercurys so desirable. The extensive modifications elevate this car beyond simple nostalgia, creating a machine that blends classic custom aesthetics with significantly improved drivability, comfort, and reliability.

Featuring a dramatic chopped roofline, lowered stance, upgraded suspension, and modern 10-speed automatic transmission, this coupe delivers classic custom-car presence while offering a far more refined driving experience than a factory-original example. With true mileage unknown, this Mercury stands out as a thoughtfully built street cruiser that perfectly blends vintage style, custom craftsmanship, and modern usability.
