1968 Mercury Pickup

Finish on the background fence matches the finish on the truck's added wood.

Keen observers will note that one of these pictures has something unusual about it. Which one and what is it?

1976 Mercury Monarch

A car that looks odd these days because of a boxy front end noticeably longer than the back. But this is moderate compared to some other pre-90s American cars. Ford was trying to make their "small" car fit in. An effort to create a small luxury car, which fell flat on it's face like many of it's contemporaries.

This car is in great shape for a 40 year old. All the original hubcaps, few dents. Some obviously re-painted doors, hood ornament looks like it is from a later Lincoln, rear suspension slowly sagging. But it sits in quiet dignity.

Love the shape of the rear trunk area, the narrow seeming roll-down windows in the rear doors, the skinny little chrome strips around everything, and those bullseye hubcaps.
