A custom build done right is a rare sight, the sky isn't the limit with how far one can go with custom modifications, and it's easy to lose direction and focus on your custom build. The 1950 Mercury Coupe Custom we have today cuts out the planning and years of waiting and provides you with a tasteful custom build that's built to stun and stand out at any car show.
While the 50s Mercury coupe was a looker back in the day, the custom exterior upgrades on this 1950 Mercury Coupe Custom take that iconic design up a notch and stand out even amongst the hottest custom builds. Starting off the custom upgrades is a custom fiberglass body that dons a dark blue metallic paint; the smooth and curvy body lines are paid closer attention to and are made to stand out further with Concours Chrome Plated Bumpers, Chrome Plated Spotlights, LED Headlights, Blue Dot Tail Lights and shaved Door handles. In terms of shoes, this custom American machine sits on a set of Cadillac Eldorado wheels that are wrapped with whitewall tires. The two-tone blue and gray interior of this 1950 Mercury Coupe Custom is where all the custom modifications are taken seriously. The keyless entry ensures ease of access, and when you are amongst the interior of this 1950 Mercury Coupe Custom, you are treated to a host of custom upgrades like Cadillac Escalade seats for more comfort, Custom polished steering column and wheel, and even a Dakota digital dash to top it all off.
Underneath all that custom exterior modifications is a powertrain that's more than capable of ferrying its passengers and additional weight around. Look underneath the hood of this 1950 Mercury Coupe Custom, and what you will find is a 5.7L V8 powertrain that's reported to push out an impressive 375hp. A closer look at the engine bay and you would note some tasteful aesthetic modifications, which include a custom air filter housing, valve covers, and a host of chrome components; performance modifications include a Holley Sniper EFI system for smooth power delivery, Ford 9" rear end, Wilwood disc brakes, a tube chassis and Air Lift air ride suspension With Bluetooth connectivity to improve handling. Ensuring all this upgraded power transitions smoothly to the car's rear wheels is a 700R4 automatic transmission.
Mercury was one of those brands under the Ford umbrella in the United States. Positioned in the mid-range segment, the brand bid adieu to the world in 2011. Over their 85-year existence, Mercury has made some lovely classic cars that are highly desirable today. This 1950 Mercury Coupe is one such example. It reportedly underwent a restoration in 2011 and has 50,000 miles to its name. It's also a restomod of sorts, as it's got a newer engine and some creature comforts.
The 70s was a dark time in the American automotive industry; the large American machines were soon to be axed off their production lines for smaller, efficient motoring; this was all due to the impending oil crisis. With smaller efficient imports taking control of the market, the 1970 Mercury Monterey Convertible we have today perfectly represents the last living giants.
If you were flush for cash back in the 50s, you sure were spoilt for choice; visiting your local dealer was a treat as you gazed upon the golden era of the American automotive scene. While the Chevrolet of the time was the name of the game when it came to luxury motoring, the adventurous car buyer could opt for something you wouldn't see too often and drive off in a car like this 1953 Mercury Monterey we have today. Built to stand out, this classic American machine aims to turn heads and represent a time gone by.
Now here’s an interesting little Ford roadster for you open-topped driving fans out there. Built in Broadmeadows in Melbourne, Australia, the Mercury Capri’s third generation was sold between 1991 and 1994. Mercury, a division of Ford, wanted to create something to rival the Toyota MR2 and Mazda MX-5 Miata. The third-generation Capri was the result, and we’ve got one here today. Say hello to this 40,090-mile 1991 Mercury Capri XR2 Turbo from Louisville, Kentucky. With its fizzy turbocharged engine and manual gearbox, it’s quite an interesting proposition to add to your garage.
Hang on…isn’t Capri a Ford model? Well, yes that was the case in many markets outside the United States. But back home in Detroit, Ford had several sub-brands. Mercury was one of them, and in 1970, Capri was too. Initially, it was what was called a captive import that was imported from Ford of Europe and sold merely as a Capri. No Ford or any other parent branding was borne on the car. In 1979, things changed for the second generation of the American Capri. Capri was now a model under Ford’s Mercury division and based on the famous Fox platform. So, it was basically like a Fox Body Mustang with different styling. This generation was made as the Mercury Capri between 1979 and 1986. Today, we’ve got one of these curios in the shape of a Connecticut-residing 1985 Mercury Capri Grand Sport. This 26,000-mile car is up for sale and comes with some neat performance enhancements. We’re told that the car features its original body and paint, and even includes the original booklets with the sale.
The Cadillac de Ville series is a full-size luxury car from Cadillac, made between 1958 and 2005 across eight generations. The term de Ville means “of the town”, indicating that Cadillac intended the model to become the talk of the town, literally. Offered in sedan, coupe and convertible forms, early generations are renowned for their flamboyant styling. Take this second generation 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville as a prime example. With a 390 under the hood and a lovely Nevada Silver paint job, this machine awaits a new owner in Santa Rosa, California. Grab it while you can because cars like this don’t stay on the market for long.
The prancing horse, or better yet known as Ferrari, has long been the purveyor of a car ownership experience that's unlike any out there. From its bedroom wall poster to clocking in rapid lap times worldwide, the Italian manufacturer is a true legend in the automotive world. While taking ownership of a Ferrari is a milestone in anyone's life, it does come with a tax - the actual cost of owning one and allowing it to clock in the miles and provide you with a good time on every drive out. Breaking through the matrix that is Ferrari ownership is otherworldly, but worry not: there is always a solution. Present today is this 1986 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole. With a reported 24,000 miles on its clock, this is the answer to all your prancing horse problems and has always been labeled as a "usable" Ferrari.
Pontiac has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.
