Cool 1951 Mercury Deluxe Coupe, 350 V8, PS, PB, A/C, 700R4 Auto, Fatman Clip

Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 26th year in the classic and muscle car business. As America emerged from WWII, automobile stylists were forced to dust off their prewar designs because arms production had supplanted auto manufacturing during the war. The race was on for a new look that would capture the hearts (and wallets!) of the rapidly expanding middle class in postwar America. Ford, including their Mercury division, was the first of the "Big Three" American manufacturers to cash in on the new "envelope" bodies that blended fenders and doors into one cohesive form. This classic 1951 Mercury Eight Deluxe Six Passenger Coupe is a fine example of these historically important cars. Lift the deeply sculpted hood and you'll see the 350 V8 crate engine that's sporting a Holley carburetor, a GMPP aluminum intake manifold, headers, an aluminum radiator, and HEI. Additional features include power rack and pinion steering, power front disc brakes, Vintage Air A/C, 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission with O/D, a Fatman Fabrications front clip with adjustable coilover shocks, a new wiring harness, custom interior, tilt steering column, a digital Kenwood audio system, twin period correct Mercury spotlights made by unity Mfg. Co., correct Black paint (01), non-functional Lakes-type pipes, and classic wide whitewall tires (7.10-15) wrapped around reverse chrome wheels with Baby Moons. This sweetheart really looks the part and is exponentially safer and more comfortable than when it was new. Another cool cruiser from the Texas Hill Country's premier source for classic cars and the team that can make your dream a reality. Brylcreem and penny loafers not included.
