Mercury, one of Ford’s key divisions, occupied the sweet spot between Ford’s mainstream appeal and Lincoln’s luxury prestige. Established in 1938, the marque earned a loyal following before being discontinued in 2011. For many, Mercury cars evoke fond memories—particularly from the Fifties through the Seventies. Among its notable models, the Montclair stood out as a full-size offering, produced initially from 1955 to 1960 and revived from 1964 to 1968. Across five generations—some lasting as little as one model year—the Montclair exemplified the style and comfort of mid-century American motoring. This 1966 Mercury Montclair Hardtop, part of the fifth and final generation, represents the era’s take on entry-level luxury for the family. Showing just 19,000 miles, this Florence-based classic is ideal for seasoned collectors and first-time enthusiasts alike.
This example showcases a bold red body complemented by a white roof—an eye-catching contrast that was popular in the Sixties for mimicking a convertible profile. Chrome bumpers, white-striped tires, gleaming hubcaps, and extended body lines add to its larger-than-life presence—a hallmark of the full-size American car era. Inside, the Montclair offers generous space and classic Sixties flair. Thanks to the pillarless hardtop design, all four power windows can be lowered for a breezy, open-air ride. The white vinyl seats contrast elegantly with the black dashboard and chrome trim, enhancing its vintage appeal. Features include power windows, cruise control, a push-button AM radio, and a column-mounted gear shifter—all contributing to that unmistakable classic car ambiance. The trunk is in respectable shape, though it could benefit from a custom-fitted mat, which is an easy fix.
Under the hood lies a 390ci V8—the smallest available engine for this generation. While larger, thirstier options existed, this setup offers a great balance of performance and drivability. It’s equipped with an Edelbrock intake manifold and carburetor for improved response, and mated to a smooth-shifting MX-Drive 3-speed automatic transmission. As expected, power is sent to the rear wheels, staying true to classic American performance roots.

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.
Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
