1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe
The Mercury Monterey, built by the Mercury division of Ford was considered as a full size near luxury car back in the olden days. Interestingly, this 1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe belongs to the debuting generation of Monterey models, which are also the flagship model for the Mercury line. This car's styling was largely carried over from other Ford models including Ford's Lincoln line. Therefore, the Monterey became the car for those who wished for something more exquisite than a Ford but didn’t want to pay the Lincoln’s price. Today this 1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe is an unmistakable collector car. Its motor have underwent a rebuilt and it only has 15,000 miles on this new build. Don't pass on this opportunity as you will hardly locate a first-generation Monterey in such great shape.
Atop, the roof of this 1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe possesses a gracefully curved rear glass. This Cream color roof smoothly slopes down at the back giving the car an aerodynamic look. This Cream roof together with the Bittersweet Orange color of the exterior makes up the two-tone exterior finish. Then there are the Chrome adorns to talk about. The double front bumper, the Lincoln inspired rear bumper, Chrome bars on the sides and the Mercury lettering around the car are just a few Chrome details this car flaunts. More Chrome fittings can be found in the beautiful Orange and white interior of this 1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe. The Orange touches on the seats and door panels go with the exterior color while the contrasting Creamy white suits the color of its roof. The large three-spoke steering wheel featuring chrome accents and the big speedometer behind it takes us back to the ‘50s motoring experience. The plush bench seats can comfortably accommodate four adults.
At the heart of this stunning 1953 Mercury Monterey Sport Coupe is a rebuilt 255ci flathead V8 engine. This powertrain was good for about 125 horsepower and 211 lb-ft of torque out of the factory. You get a 3-speed manual transmission with overdrive to help you tackle its power to your liking. According to the seller, this engine has received a new camshaft, pistons, heads, crank, and intake.
