Overview of 1969 Mercury Montego MX 4 Door Sedan For Sale by Owner

Mercury is one of those old marques that have been axed due to budget restraints and insufficient sales. Founded in 1938 as Ford’s top-end line-up offering catering to the affluent market, Mercury saw success, especially with its Cougar and Montego models. Produced under three generations, the Mercury Montego debuted in 1968 stopped production in 1976 and resumed from 2004 to 2007. It was a counterpart to the Ford Torino. Up for grabs is a two-door hardtop 1969 Mercury MX with a slew of new parts and performance upgrades.
