48-52' merc pickups! PICS!??

Me and my dad just recently put money down on a 51' merc pickup. Just looking for a bunch of pics, and inspiration! and what would it cost to bag it?? and any pics of installing the bags??

Thanks

 

Are you talking about an actual Merc pickup? Or a Merc car made into a pickup?

 

Well....to be totally honest with you....they look almost IDENTICAL to a Ford Truck....besides the lettering

 

K-MEMBER has a 51 M-1, Maybe look thru his posts......OLDBEET

 

Merc Trucks were identical to Fords.., but is it US or Canadian ?

 

Different parts are----Tailgate, hood emblem, hood side spears and horn button.......OLDBEET

 

i mean an ACTUAL merc pickup lol

 

i dont know about the US or the Canadian trucks but, i hardly ever see Merc trucks....most people have the fords, i find that anyways

 

Its going to be pretty badass driving a hotrod everyday toi highschool, other than my dads 66' chev pickup straight 6

my dad has a 50 mercury pickup and i have a 52 and a 52 ford just cant figure out how to post pics

 

Most of the HAMB don't see these trucks as they are Canadian models only.

Here you go! Mercuy UTEs

 

Mercury trucks were only sold in Canada vs. as Fords here in the US. I'm sure it had a lot to do with marketing. Much as nowadays, would a Merc truck sell to the common buyer? They probably had better results in Canada.

 

As stated above, Mercury trucks were a Canadian model, as were Fargo trucks in the Chrysler lineup.

Canada had ford dealers and also Lincoln/Mercury dealers. They wanted a truck to sell, so they had Merc trucks.

On the Chrysler side, Dodge and Plymouth were sold at separate dealerships.....Fargo trucks were sold at Plymouth dealers.

GM had similar ideas............Chev/Olds had Chevy trucks.........Pontiac/Buick dealers sold GMC trucks.

I have this 51 Ford............sorry, not a Merc.

 

Thanks Gas Huffer, poncho62..dont be sorry man, i should have put Ford in the title but i messed up, and i think thats why im not gettin much responses to this, but now i cant change the title...
