1960 Mercury Tucson Turquois Colony Park Hardtop Wagon 81K Original Miles Loaded

Description

LOW RESERVE!
Last year of the 1950's hardtop station wagons and widely viewed as the best looking of the Mercury models, this original California car has actually spent the younger part of its life at a Catholic parish rectory having been donated to the nuns by the original owner! Now it is worthy of being shown at the Peterson Museum or driving anywhere or both. P/S, P/B, P/W, A/C, PDL, AM/FM and all systems working including cigarette lighter (ashtray never seen cigarettes) and clock but A/C needs to be charged with R-12 since new A/C compressor was installed.
Wagon is well represented with a Utube video courtesy of Dennis Cage at his "My Classic Car" website. Go to:

I would never buy a car off Ebay unless I had the opportunity to look at it beforehand. You should at least have a car inspection so I welcome you to see the car first hand here in Paso Robles, CA most anytime during the 7 day auction. At the same time I would not mis-represent or overstate the condition of anything I sell so rely on my reputation and feedback here on this forum. Ask any question here or call me, Matt, at 714 851-1106. Please leave a message if I fail to answer as I work two jobs. I reserve the right to end this auction early as the car is advertised elsewhere also.
Should car sell here at auction, a $1000 deposit is due within 24 hours via Paypal with full payment due within 7 days. Can store car for short duration.
Good Luck!
