Merc Lead Sled V8 Auto Classic Vintage Collector Receipts Red Maroon Gray

1941 Mercury Coupe Description

How do you get ahead of the Mercury Lead Sled guys? How about reaching back even further with a full custom from another iconic design. This 1941 Mercury coupe has all those unmistakable custom touches that everyone loves, and it's a unique standout wherever it goes. Best of all, you'll love the long list of features: from power seats to recently rebuilt V8 power.

This is related to one of the most iconic Ford street machines, just in a rarer form. So, it does a great job of showing off its history while also giving the coupe some modern flair. That starts with the maroon paint. It has a bright and deep gloss to attract plenty of attention. The special Mercury grille is bright and it's on full display with the elimination of any overriders on the chrome bumper below it. There are plenty of the right hot rod custom touches, too. The headlights and license plate have been frenched; the dual exhaust tips are big and bright; and there's custom pinstriping on the hood and trunk. Plus, the lowered stance and polished wheels give this the right amount of street machine attitude.

Step inside, and even more custom touches await. The plush bucket seats have terrific bolstering and they power adjust to your ideal position. You may have noticed the Thunderbird logo in the seatbacks, which is a cool nod to tell you this Mercury borrows the seats from a younger legend in the Ford family. And there are more nice details, like the AM/FM/CD stereo, air conditioning (will need servicing,) and center armrest for the back seat. Plus, this has been upgraded for comfortable driving with a Lokar shifter, Lecarra sports steering wheel on a tilt column, and well-integrated set of crisp VDO gauges.

When you open the hood, the extra bold blue on the block clues you in to another one of this coupe's nice surprises. We have a receipt documenting over $4k invested in a recent engine rebuild. So this motor looks fresh because it is fresh! Not only does this look great, but the 302 cubic-inch V8 is a nice upgrade in power over the Flathead units. And as you dig deeper, you'll also spot the right supporting components, like upgraded pulleys, billet brackets, and an electric fan. It fires up readily, runs strong, and makes a sweet tune out of the newer stainless dual exhaust. Not only is this a nice power package, but also this one is built to be a more modern cruiser. That's why you have good driving features like the three-speed automatic transmission and power brakes w/discs up front.

This is the one classic that offers distinct looks, upgraded comfort, and strong V8 power. Don't let this deal slip away, call today!
