This Mercury's history can be traced back to 1999 when it was owned by a Mr Marietta in Texas. Mr Marietta sold the car to a Mr Vickers in Ontario, Canada, who kept it until 2016 when he sold it our vendor. Since then the car has benefited from much care and various improvements: drum brakes converted to discs; sanding and repainting of the entire under-chassis; and regular servicing to keep it permanently drivable.
Accompanying documentation includes a (copy) Texas Certificate of Title; Swiss customs duties proof of payment; and a substantial quantity of invoices for parts and work. The car also comes with an expertise carried out by Mercury expert Ed Thornton in November 2007 for the aforementioned Canadian owner.
