1966 MERCURY PARK LANE CONVERTIBLE RARE 428!!!
Description
THIS MERCURY IS IN GREAT CONDITION! ALWAYS STARTS EASY, AND RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT!BELOW IS A DETAILED DESCRIPTION, OF THE CAR FROM 4 YEARS AGO, WHEN LAST OWNER BOUGHT THE CAR. EVERYTHING IS STILL THE SAME, EXCEPT THE MILEAGE IS NOW 64,000.While the Mercury Marauder occupied the performance end of the Mercury showroom, the Park Lane was the luxury version. With the same potent powerplants and every power and convenience item in the book, this lovely Park Lane convertible was far more luxurious than any Ford, and a lot faster than anything from Lincoln. Only 2546 were built in 1966, which makes it a lot rarer than any of its corporate cousins, too. This top of the line ’66 Mercury Parklane sold for $3,608 new and came with the famous 428/345 horsepower big block under the hood. With 462 ft/lbs of torque, this car is a screamer. Finished in its original color combination of red with red interior, this is an extremely nice running car that has benefitted from a mild restoration that included a repaint, reupholstered interior and repainting the engine.The paint on the car has a great shine and luster, showing some minor imperfections and touch ups. The emblems and trim appear to be nearly all original and in very good condition. Both front and rear bumpers were rechromed during the repaint and show no pitting, scratches or damage. The white convertible top is new and nearly perfect. It does have a glass rear window. Inside, the seats have been professionally reupholstered as well as the door panels. All of which look great and show little to no wear. The carpet is new as well and is equally as nice with no notable wear. The car has had seatbelts installed. The dash is solid and all gauges are in good working order. Under the hood, the rarely seen monster 428 Cu In V8 runs great and is connected to the C-6 automatic transmission. The engine compartment has been nicely detailed and looks better then it did when new. The car does have power steering and power brakes. There has been an updated MSD ignition system added for reliability as well as an Edelbrock air cleaner. New belts, hoses and alternator have also been installed. We do not have the original air cleaner. The trunk is solid as well as underneath the car. The steel wheels are wrapped with newer white wall radial tries and covered with correct Mercury hubcaps.
