Description

Edsel Ford introduced the 'Mercury' in 1939 as a model to fill the gap between the basic Ford V8, and the luxury upmarket Lincoln Zephyr. The 1949-51 third generation adopted a pontoon appearance, the bodyshell now shared with the 1949 Lincoln Cosmopolitan(the headlights and grille distinguishing the two vehicles); inside, the two lines would feature separate interior designs. Models available in 1949 were; the 72 2 door Coupe, the 74 4 door Sedan, the 76 2 door Convertible and 79 2 door Wagon (wood panel sides). In 1950, the high- end Monterey coupe was introduced, in the same vein as the Ford Crestliner, the Lincoln Lido and the Lincoln Cosmopolitan Capri. 1951 saw an update to the grille-indicator treatment
