1964 Mercury Montclair-25th Anniversary Edition

1964 Mercury Montclair 4 door Description

Up for auction and for your consideration is a running 1964 Mercury Montclair, 25th Anniversary Edition. The car was purchased originally in Decatur Georgia from Ferrell Lincoln Mercury in Feb, 1964. To the best of my knowledgeand according to the previousowner it has been a Georgia car all its life. I have had the car for a few years and according to the previous owner it has been in theirfamily overover 20 years. We will be moving this year so I have to get rid of some of the vehicles I have. The car is equipped with a 390 C.I. engine with a 2-barrel carburetorand automatic transmission. It has the very rare and classic rear retractablewindow which is fully operational as you can see from the video I have included.The car is in very good condition for its age. The paint is original but is faded through in several places down to the primer. The interior is in very good condition with the exceptionof the carpet which will need to be replaced at some point. The seats and the headliner are in really good shape for a car of this age. and its obvious that the car has been stored indoors and has not been allowed to sit in the sun. The car is equipped with air conditioning which blows cold, as you can see on one of the videosthe compressorclutch engages and disengageswhen the AC is turned on. The car starts well and the transmission engages as it should. It does not leak any fluids when parked. As you can see from the pictures that the trunk pan is solid and I tried to take pictures of the floor pans and they are also solid. The tires are in good shape and are not dry rotted and the brakes work as they are suppose to. This car is 53 years old and I hope you can see that it has been maintained well through the years. The engine does not smoke or clatter, if you remove the oil cap and the engine is running, there is no crank case pressure blowing out. However, with all that being said, it is still a 53 year old automobile and is being sold in "as is" condition and no warranty implied or stated. All the glass in the car is in good shape and all the windows operate properly. The drivers door does latch properly, I simply close the door and lock it and it stays shut until you open the door. All the other doors work at they should. The light switch is struck and does not pull out into the "on" position, I sprayed it with some WD40 but it still won't move. I found one on Ebay for $20 but I just never got around to buying it. With a little work, this could be a very nice car and very rare with the operating rear window. I have tried to take pictures and videos so that you could see what you are bidding on but PLEASE don't bid unless you want to purchase the car! I will be glad to work with you on meeting a shipper with the car or the car can sit in my garage for a while until you can arrange to pick it up. If you have any questions please feel free to email me. The vehicle must be paid for before I release the car or the title. Thanks for looking and have a great day.
