1969 Mercury Montego

Description

Up for Sale a 1969 Mercury Montego (Dan Gurney – Cyclone Spoiler)
– Torino
This is a 1969 Mercury Montego that was
originally
light blue.  I
purchased
the car with the intent of making it a convertible version of the famed 1969 Dan Gurney Cyclone Spoiler sports roof.  This is
a 1969 Mercury Montego
‘Cyclone’
and
is 1 of 33 documented by the Marti Report.  Probably less than that because the report doesn’t factor in the car has power windows.  As for the car, the
previous
owner had rebuilt the 351W and put new exhaust in 2014.  When I got the
car,
I did the following:

The power top works and shows beautifully on the car with the Dan Gurney Stripes.  All four power windows
work
from both the driver door main and
at each location.  This car runs great and shifts with no issues.  I use a trickle charge in the winter and each spring it starts right up.  Travels well on the freeway and new brakes stop the car with great ease and in a straight line.  All the head lights and parking lamps work as well as the brake lights.  The interior lights work as well including the SEATBELT light in the dash.
NOTE: the radio is missing.
A
bsolutely no rust on this car or fiberglass patches.
Bright work shows well and even includes new OEM taillight lens that I
bought
on eBay for $400.00
.  No chips or wiper marks on the windshield and the rear backlight/glass is free of marks as well.
Please review the pictures and contact me with any questions.  Inspections and test drives are encouraged – the perspective buyer will not be disappointed.  This car is ready for the car shows and weekend drives.
This car is for sale as-is with no warranty.  Buyer
is responsible for
all transportation costs.  A $500.00 non-refundable deposit via eBay deposit/bank wire transfer is due within 24 hours of the bid closing.  The balance of funds is due within 6 calendar days from the deposit in cash or bank wire transfer.  The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to remove the auction listing at any time.  I can aid with shipping and will hold the car for up to 21 calendar days from receipt of final payment
SPECIAL NOTE – please review my past
feedback and note I have had only one negative comment in over 20 years.  This occurred earlier this year when I sold a scarf for a family member and the buyer requested a refund.  I offered a refund, but the buyer never sent the item back, but still left a negative comment.  I’m working with eBay still to have that removed.  If you look at the last car I sold, a 2005 Ford Inca Gold Thunderbird, you will see the positive comment as well as the many others over the past two decades.
Please email me, via
Ebay
, with any questions you may have or to request added pictures/videos.  If you leave your phone number, I will call you back generally same day.
Thanks,
and good luck with the auction!!
