    restored 68 Mercury Commuter Station Wagon
    Beautiful Paint- professionally done- 2 years ago
    Rebuilt 390 with VERY few miles on it, a few hundred.
    Rebuilt C-6 auto same as engine.
    Upholstery is redone/repaired.
    New tires. Red top Optima battery.
    Beautiful inside and out.
    This is ready to cruise, much more $$ into it than asking price.
    Please message me with questions, I am helping my dad sell the wagon.
    Car is located near Seattle Washington.
    Asking price is $9500 obo

    Looks like one sweet ride. The paint and chrome are incredibly lustrous. Good luck selling it. Wish I was in the market.

    If you squish it down to Comet size it'll fit nicely in my garage....(y)

    It's a great looking Mercury and I think the asking price is fair.

    I used to wonder where in the heck all the air cleaners go on these cars. I can be such a dumb*** sometimes. After a few years I realized they were removed so the customer can see all the engine.

    Yup it is OK to laugh me off the forum.:biglaugh:
