1958 Mercury Parklane 2dr Hardtop
1958 Mercury Park Lane Description
Here is a 1958 Mercury Parklane hardtop project car. A rarely seen car - fully loaded with Memory power seat, T&C radio, power windows, steering and brakes. Power train is a 375 horsepower 430 CI engine with push button automatic. The "bankers hot rod".
The car is missing a few trim items such as Mercury letters on the hood, ornaments on top front of fenders, and the Mercury hood emblem. There is one hubcap in the car, so needing three more to make a complete set.
I haven't been in to the trunk yet so there may be more parts in there. I'll try to get the back seat out and get access to check.
The push button automatic keyboard is dismantled but all buttons and control parts are in the car.
This car has some rust in the bottom of rockers and lower quarters. A few spots near bottom of doors will need attention. I'm not totally sure about condition of the floors, but I did move the carpets back and noticed that there was original paint still on the exposed areas. Someone cut a small hole in the transmission tunnel to access the transmission linkage from inside the car.
I don't know the status of the engine and transmission - I think this car has been parked for many decades. It's not running at this time.
That said, this car is relatively complete, and restoreable. I initially bought the car sight unseen for parts, but decided instead that it was more valuable as a rare and very unique car to be saved and restored. Original colors where coral sand with a white stripe down the body side.
