1967 Mercury Monterey 390 Convertible
_______________________________________
I bought this car on 4/24/2004 for $4000. It has a rebuilt 390 2bbl, C6 auto Tranny and 2.75 rear gears.
Anyway- Since I just got it, I really havn't done much to it, these pics were all taken the weekend I bought it. I'll post more as things change, but for now, here ya go!
This is how the car looked when i found it- Sitting on the side of a back farm road with a for sale sign in the window... Definitely caught my eye!
Here is the interior- All origonal... A few hidden rips, and warped door panels, but otherwise good shape. Carpet is missing- but thats a good thing because it shows the nice, 100% rust free floorpans underneath!

The Rest of these pics were taken the Next day after i bought it and got it home.
Heh- Sun is going down after a
real tough day of top down cruising...
I'm not sure how I managed to squeeze its 19ft length into my garage... But it fit!
Current Plans:
1. All rubber fuel lines & brake hoses are old & cracked & need to be replaced 2. Needs a tune up & carb rebuild
3. Rear brake shoes are dragging- need to fix- Probably re-do the brake shoes, drums & wheel cylinders all the way around to make sure its safe.
4. New Rims/Tires
5. Drive it!!!
