This rare Mercury Monterey has just been treated to a full respray in Champagne Gold with a Super Pearl roof. Aside from this, the vendor tells us that it is completely original everything working. The 5.7-litre V8-powered car was new in 1962 and only UK-registered in January 2018, since when it has had two registered keepers. The odometer shows 36,160 miles and the last MoT expired in November 2021 after being tested the previous year at an indicated 34,077 miles. However, as an historic vehicle, it no longer requires annual testing. The car has recently received a new air filter and exhaust, as its old one was rotten. Said to run and drive well with no known issues. The only documentation is the V5C and an old 2014 US sales agreement (although one that seems to relate to a different Mercury).
