1964 Mercury Montclair
Breezway
(sister to the Turnpike Cruiser)
The patina on this car is priceless...
We suggest viewing this auction on a normal PC or tablet
and NOT A PHONE to see ALL the large clear pics !!!
BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
so this car has been off the road for many yrs. After lubing up the
cylinders to be safe and waiting a few days, nbsp;we hooked up an
electric fuel pump to a small gas tank under the hood, nd with a
little carb work, he car came to life. Thats is its current condition.
Im not sure the condition of the gas tank, ut to keep it simple we
are selling the car like this. I can easily drive it onto or off a hauler.
The car shuts off with the key, ut the power wire from the ignition
switch to the starter is broken, o to start it I just jump the selenoid
for now under the hood. It starts everytime and the motor sounds
great and it idles smooth. Drop it into any great and it drives around
fine, rans feels good and brakes work too, lthough Id probably check
all the brake parts in the near future due to their age.
ORIGINAL PAINT or whats left of it some cool patina
ORIGINAL INTERIOR also showing its age but not too bad.
Obviously it will need a new windshiel, r side ft door glass also
is missing.
Because the car has sat, ts going to need some work to be a dependable
daily driver, ut its far from a basket case.
NO signs of bondo or rust or rot on the body. (surface at best)
ALL THE STAINLESS TRIM IS THERE and in amazing shape.
Coud use some cleaning thats about it.
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, pparently some people
who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules.
So if you have under 10 feedbacks, ll be emailing you if you bid to
make sure you are legit, f we do please reply or we will cancel your bid.
Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!
These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition
that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: this car has its factory V8 390 4v Super Marauder
big block that sounds and runs great. Prob the original motor and trans
as well. C6 auto and prob a 9" out back These motors make all the torque
Necessary to move this tank intown or on the highway. This was I believe
Mercs best engine option available in this car. Other then maybe a tuneup
and some detailing, cant see much needed to be done here.
TIRES are junk and we have just some rollers on it.
INTERIOR: take a look at the pics, lthough it looks okay in the pics
the interior of this car isnt horrible, ust showing its age and not restored.
It could use some new stuff inside to be really nice or you could drive
it the way it is to be honest. There are some small parts in the glove box
that look to go to the dash too. In all my yrs of being around these older cars
and Mercs, ve never seen IN DASH A/C VENTS like Mercury used in this
car back in 1964. So its not dealer installed AC, ts from the FACTORY
AC car. It all looks complete, o with a little work, m sure you can get it
working. Chrome and stainless inside look great too for their age.
The Sw is falling apart around the edges :( A few of the windows are hard
to roll down.
YEAR electric window motor I could hear trying to move the glass and it did
move a little up and down, ut stopped after that.
EXTERIOR:the body and and original sheetmetal on this car are in amazing
shape for being over 50 yrs old. I wouldnt paint it myself, ut just do the
mechanics on it and drive it the way it is for now. They are only original once.
During restoration, ou could go back 100% stock....
or RESTO MOD the heck out of it !!
The stainless on the outside of the car is in really great shape and its all there!
One of the BEST features on these car, oth the front end and rearend.
! seeing these cars
from behind, ith the small fins and 6 rocket engine style afterburner tail lights
just speaks volumes for the styling in the late 50s and early 60s.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks very much original and tires are junk.
While driving it around the parking lot etc I dont hear any large clunks or
issues. As simple as this suspension is, t wouldnt take much to rebuild part
or all of it if you needed to. Below are pics of some 18x9 Resto mod style rims we test fit on
the car to see how well they would fit, nd they look and fit great ! SO IF THERE IS
A WINNER and IF THEY WANT TO BUY the rims and maybe a good set of used 18"
tires for it, ust inquire, .we can make you a good deal on those too !!
Check out ALL the pics below ----->
it may take a full minute for them all to load ifyou have a
slow connection, o be patient AND looks for the extra scroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.

UPDATE:the part near the bottom of the ad that says
I DONT KNOW WHATS UNDER THIS OLD PAINT JOB, nd it may have
had some repair work done yrs ago, ts just too hard to tell.
I can tell you though, f you look down the sides of this car on both
Sides, dont see tons of waves running down the body like some cars
there are a few bubbles starting near the rocker areas though.
So expect some rust on the car during repaint and some repairs over
the yrs. Its still so clean, f the car doesnt sell, m okay with that too
because Id love to keep it its that nice.
IGNORE that, t was from the previous car sold and not this car.
