Wow, what a ride. These Mercs don't get much appreciation out there, but if you're gonna get one, this is the one to get. Looking at the marketplace at the time, they really didn't stand a chance up against the Starfire and Grand Prix, etc. I have a brand new set of those red white and blue wheelcovers for these. only 14"s https://harrisburg.craigslist.org/cto/d/chambersburg-1962-mercury-55/6960408650.html
The 63 Mercurys have always been a favorite of mine. The 62's look good till you get to the tail lights. Never been overly fond of that back end. The 61 Mercury doesn't look bad though and has a closer family resemblance to the 63 than the 62 does.
