Overview of 1939 Mercury Eight Town Sedan For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

The beautiful red paintwork you see here is thanks to a painstaking restoration. The owner reports that this 1939 Mercury Town Sedan was completely disassembled, stripped to the bare metal, sanded, and painted with PPG. You'll find new external mirrors and door handles 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 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.

Mercury was first introduced as a subsidiary division of the Ford Motor Company that bridged the gap between the affordable Ford models and the luxury Lincoln lineup.

The Cougar lineup saw eight generations, where the car transformed from a Pony car to a personal luxury coupe.

With its name derived from Monterey Bay, the same inspiration for the famous Monterey Jack cheese, the Mercury Monterey was a full-size automobile by Mercury that was available between 1952 and 1974. Mercury itself, the mid-tier luxury division of Ford sat between Ford and Lincoln, and, sadly, was retired in 2011. So, this is one of those classic American names from a defunct manufacturer. That only adds to the cachet of this 1953 Mercury Monterey. The fact that its maker is no more only adds more to the car’s value, as does its Flathead V8, auto gearbox and mere 1,700 miles. A discerning collector will have no hesitation in snapping up this car, while a budding collector should seriously consider acquiring it sans delay.
