out there, such as Fords and Chevrolets, but very few of these spectacular Mercurys. This Monterey is listed for sale here on craigslist for $7,500 and is located in Avinger, Texas. This car has the 312 V8, making 290 horsepower in this applicationimage: http://cdncache-a.akamaihd.net/items/it/img/arrow-10x10.png
.
It also has power steering, power disc brakes, and, unusually, air
conditioning. There are some rusty parts around the edges, but as
a whole the body seems relatively solid. I’m not sure I’d leave the new
custom wheels; I think steel wheels and small caps would be ideal for
this car, but that’s me.

As you can see from this ad, Mercury liked this color scheme too. Just look at that “Dream Car

Design!” Is this pink and white cruiser your dream car?
