I am listing this car for my friend Pete, he wants to sell his 39 Mercury and use the money to work on another car he owns. Picture link at bottom of page. 1939 Mercury Coupe. This Mercury Coupe has undergone a complete nut and bolt rebuild in 2005 and has been meticulously maintained since that time. 392w....a stroked Ford 351w. Built Ford AOD with high performance internals. Highway cruising is no problem but it is still fun to drive around town. The rearend is a 9" Lincoln Versailles with disc brakes. A Chassis Engineering rear leaf spring kit was used to locate the rearend. A Kugel components front end was installed with Shockwave air ride shocks used on the front along with a Kugle disc brake kit. The frame was media stripped, powder coated and then painted with a 2 stage black paint. Tan leather on Glide bucket seats. A custom console houses the power window switches and ignition. A kugel components pedal assembly was used.....Vintage air A/C system... The original gauge cluster was rebuilt by Williams gauge. Black ppg base clear. The body was media stripped and all the rust (a very small amount, where the rear fenders mount and a few areas on the rear pan) were replaced with new metal then primed with PPG DP 90 epoxy primer. There are a few small areas that have a minor blemish (rock chip, small hair line crack) but nothing that would keep it from winning at the show. Big Creek Restoration in Ellis Ks built this car. You can see what kind of work they are know for at www.Bigcreekrestoration.com , or check them out on Facebook. Call 785 6two3 93zero8 to discuss the car.
