Way
to Kool for School, the perfect toy for all around use
and fun, grab yer friends. At first glance, you may
think this Ol Merc's pretty stock but that's really only
where the fun begins. Let's face it, the best part about
owning that perfect classic car, is the ability to enjoy
it regularly, safely, anytime and/or everyday, if it trips yer trigger. Come on honey, let's go fer a spin...
From
the glorious factory trim to the rear suicide doors,
this sexy lady brims with original style and blow
up my dress beauty. The reflections within the deep
maroon metallic whistle straight body are as luscious as
smooth lipstick and the abundance of factory chrome
gives your girl a mirror to put it on, Love Me Tender
:-). Sorry, I just had to go there because the owner is
a huge
Marilyn & Elvis fan, back on track. Finished off
with Wide Whites, Fender Skirts & Olds Rocket 88
spinner hub
caps...
Twisting the key, listening to the rumble and peeking
under the hood let's you know something is a bit different.
Is there a tiger in the tank, no not really but there is
a Ford Motorsport 351 Windsor 4V V8 crate engine hooked
up to a stout Ford C6 automatic transmission and a stout Ford 9
inch differential professionally installed/upgraded by
the owners long time friend Sam Foose. Yep, powerful,
dependable and very roadworthy, let's hit the road...
Features include polished aluminum intake manifold,
Edelbrock "AFB" 4bbl carburetor, electronic ignition
w/Taylor plug wires, polished aluminum Ford Racing
valve covers, chrome high amp alternator, polished A/C
compressor, polished billet Serpentine belt drive
system, high capacity aluminum radiator and thermostat
controlled dual electric cooling fans. The suspension
and braking is just right with upgraded front "Power
Disc" brakes, factory IFS front suspension, upgraded
stabilizer bar, factory parallel rear leaf springs
w/lowering blocks and gas shocks. Low but not too low,
gotta go...
Moving inside you will find the same level of original
beauty with subtle upgrades to make that ride comfy.
Adorned with all of her factory chrome trim, door
hardware garnish moldings, gorgeous factory chrome dash
and deep gray metallic paint surfaces but ever so
lightly updated. Features include tilt steering & column
shift, leather wrapped banjo steering wheel, Vintage air
conditioning/heat, nicely fitted new Dakota Digital
gauges, Sony AM/FM/CD stereo, front/rear seat belts and tasteful two-tone gray
velour over factory seating. This Fifty Merc will set
the pace, too much fun.. |
