1963 Mercury Monterey
Stock Classic | 390ci V8 | 67,500 miles | $8,500
For sale is a 1963 Mercury Monterey, a true piece of American automotive history that remains mostly stock and well-preserved. This particular example features its original 390ci V8 engine with a 4-barrel carburetor, paired to an automatic transmission for smooth and dependable cruising. It comes equipped with desirable factory options including power steering, power brakes, working AC, and a power rear window.
The exterior was repainted pink many years ago as part of its unique history—it was originally a Mary Kay promotional vehicle. The paint still presents well overall, though it does have defects including a dent with missing paint on the driver-side rear, failing paint on the roof, and missing trim on the passenger doors. Despite these flaws, the car remains mostly rust-free with no major rot and solid sheet metal.
Inside, the interior is in good condition, with the original power bench seat needing reupholstery and repair. The radio works intermittently, but most other features remain functional. With just 67,500 original miles, this Monterey still runs and drives well, though there is some hesitation at lower RPMs.
This 1963 Mercury Monterey is perfect for collectors or enthusiasts looking for a unique, well-preserved classic with an interesting backstory. With its solid mechanicals and iconic 1960s styling, it’s a fantastic candidate for light restoration or simply enjoyed as is.
