This is a 1950 Mercury 4 Door Sedan that is completely original. This Mercury has never been advertised for sale. It is a flathead V8 with a 3 speed on the column and overdrive transmission, suicide doors, and has been stored inside. The overdrive transmission gives you 6 speeds forward. The Mercury is in good condition and very restorable with no rust problems. This Mercury is in good running condition and the flathead V8 was rebuilt at 80,000 miles in 1989 and has since only had 2,500 miles put on it. Interior is also in great condition! This Mercury was purchased in 1977 from the original owner. This Mercury is stored inside and we drive it 2-3 miles every 3-4 weeks, just to keep it exercised. This Mercury is white and is shown in the picture. All four original hub caps will also be included, although they are not currently installed. The reason for sale is we are looking to downsize. Please feel free to contact seller with any specific questions you may have.

1950 Mercury 4 door sedan in the Sacramento, California Area.
This is a 1950 Mercury 4 Door Sedan that is completely original. This Mercury has never been advertised for sale. It is a flathead V8 with a 3 speed on the column and overdrive transmission, suicide doors, and has been stored inside. The overdrive transmission gives you 6 speeds forward. The Mercury is in very good condition and very restorable with no rust problems. This Mercury is in good running condition and does not have any smoke or make any noise. The Merc was bought from the original owner at 80,000 miles in 1977 and had the V8 flathead engine rebuilt shortly thereafter. It was then driven by my dad until 1987; putting approximately 80,000 miles on it over those 10 years before he had the engine rebuilt a second time at 160,000. The Merc now has 162,811 miles on it and only 2,800 on the rebuilt engine. Interior is also in great condition! This Mercury is stored inside and we drive it 2-3 miles every 3-4 weeks, just to keep it exercised. This Mercury is white and is shown in the picture. All four original hub caps will also be included, although they are not currently installed. The reason for sale is we are looking to downsize. Please feel free to contact seller with any specific questions you may have.
Edit: There was a miscommunication between my dad, the owner of the car, and myself on some of the details related to mileage and engine rebuild dates. Please note that the actual mileage of the car is 162,811 with the engine being rebuilt at 80,000 and 160,000. It only has had about 2,800 miles driven since the last rebuild.

One additional note. This vehicle was originally bought in California and has been in California all its life, which means no road salt and no rust!

To clarify several questions I have received regarding the error at the top of this description where is says "Two 1950 Mercuries plus parts" this auction is only for ONE Mercury. This was an error from a previous listing description. My apologizes. Again this auction is solely for the ONE white 1950 Mercury.
