1953 Ford Other Pickups Additional Info:

1953 Mercury M350 Pickup Truck. All original and solid barn find truck. Original Flathead V8 that runs. A very good candidate for a full restoration. Selling withNo Reserveto the highest bidder. Contact must be made within 24 hours of the auction ending or it will be assumed that you have no intention of honoring your bid and the truck will be offered to others. Zero Feedback bidders must make contact prior to bidding.
It has a very solid, mostly rust free body with beautiful patina. The floorboards are exceptionally good. The passengers side cab corner has some very minor rust through. The front fenders and doors where these trucks are prone to corrosion are incredibly solid with no signs of rust. There are very few dents, the body is very straight. The Mercury tailgate is in excellent condition. It has had a grain shoot cut into the tailgate but fortunately the Mercury lettering has not been damaged. All Mercury specific emblems are present and in great shape. It has a PTO driven hoist fitted to the bed as with the majority of prairie farm trucks from this era. This is why the bed sits higher than factory. If wanted this could be easily removed and the bed could be re-mounted at the factory height. Overall this is a very good solid and all original example of a very rare Mercury truck.
The interior is complete and in very good condition for its age with a very nice dashboard. The seat will require work.
Mechanically this truck is a very good place to start. The original Flathead V8 was rebuilt 12 years ago but it has been parked for 10 years. We hooked up a 6 volt battery from another truck and poured some gas into the carburetor and it started and ran for a few seconds, long enough to verify that the clutch works and all gears can be selected on the 4 speed manual transmission. It would not take much to make this truck into a driver.
Due to the much smaller Canadian market, Ford of Canada only sold approximately one tenth as many trucks as Ford did in the US and around two thirds of those were Ford's leaving the remaining third to be Mercury's. So very few of these trucks were produced and it is becoming much harder for us to source nice original and complete examples such as this. Due to Canada's harsh climate only a handful remain today.
This will make a great project being that it will not take much to get driving and is incredibly rust free. It has been very well preserved. Selling withNo Reserveto the highest bidder.

who we are and what we do

We are two brothers who seek out original trucks and cars from all across Canada, specializing in vehicles from the 40s, 50s and 60s.

Most American barn finds have long since been found and tampered with by multiple owners; North of the border there still seems to be an abundance of good, solid, original vehicles, waiting to be brought back to life.

We make thesevehicles available to the US market by taking care of importation and providing all paperwork required to obtain a ClearUS Title, in your name and home State.

We are passionate about finding the best there is and understand that our customers wantto see automobiles that have not been tampered with; The more original, the better.

Our inventory is regularly updated, as new finds are unearthed. If there is something specific that you are looking for, then let us know and we'd be happy to see if we can help.

The business we conduct is straightforward and honest. Whether you're looking for something that'sall original, a starting point for a restoration project or the bones for a custom build, Bison Brothers are here to help.
