A couple of cool Mercury Cars from Southern California.
The Mercury car model has been around since 1939 and was introduced as a mid range priced vehicle by Edsel Ford.
Cars built between 1949 and 1951, would in later years prove to be very popular amongst the Hot Rod Car Enthusiasts. They would reshape the steel to produce cars that would set a new standard for Customized Vehicles.
Early model Mercury cars of 1949 to 1951 had a 90 degree V type, "L" head 8 cylinder engine with a displacement of 255.4 cubic inches. These engines put out 112 horsepower at 3600 R.P.M. Later model cars of 1955 replaced the "L" engine with the "Y" block V-8 producing between 188 and 198 horsepower dependent on the engine type for that year.
This slide show is a part of a series of pictures of cars from different car shows that I've attended here in Southern California U.S.A.
Had a 49 merc in 1964.. I’ll be 80 this April and it’s the only car I really ever loved..❤
Love those old Mercury's with the Cruiser Fender Skirts'! Caught my attention back in the day with a mural' on the skirt. Ever sense!
These things are such bosses!
Yes they were beauties, glad there are still some around, I like them mostly original but happy they are still with us.

49 mercury is the most iconic car of all Mercury designs
Mercury does have fender skirts from 1949 to 1956, a popular option at extra cost.
Mercury is my Favorite car 49-56
i love this video ariel bollinger
Beautiful cars!!! I have a 1954 cadillac fleetwood 60 special :)
That's nice!! I love those 54 Cadillac's. Must be very nice to ride in. Our 50' Lincoln - size wise, is much the same. 125" wheel base, 220.5" in total length. It's a big car, but - the series 60 - 1954 Cadillac's are 7.4" longer; having a total length of 227.4," and a wheel base of 133." That's a pretty serious car. :) Very nice!!
nice
*are you watching of 2018.*
lindos coches son oncreibled
I have a 51 Mercury with cherry bombs on it :)
didn't james dean call his car 'lil' (little ) bastard? the one he stacked!
Yip - his Porsche 550 Spyder. (I had to look that one up on the internet, a little before my time.) - He definitely must be the "King of Mercs," just as Elvis was the "King of Cadillacs." James Dean has got to be the coolest person behind the wheel of a 49' Merc. Thanks for the insight. :)
Oh I had maybe 6 people in 6 years give me some gas and some food.
People just know how to ruin a car, especially a Merc
The one at 2:38 was the worst thing ive ever seen done to any car
