This 1956 Mercury Montclair 2-door hardtop is up for sale.
The private individual is selling this ‘frame-off’, completely, restored 1956 Mercury Montclair 2-door hardtop. The restoration was completed in late 2015, driven less than 3000 miles, and it took over 6 years to complete. The body was taken off the frame and both were media blasted, and the frame had zinc chromate sprayed inside it to prevent any rusting!
This is a multiple show winner in many ways. Every nut, bolt, and screw was replaced including the wiring harness. Some of the original equipment was retained such as the glass, which is in very good condition (no cracks or chips).
Factory options include AM radio, clock, Power steering, fender skirts, and Mercury spinner hubcaps up front.
On a scale of 1 (show condition) to 5 (needs restoration). This Mercury is a strong 3+, runs great, and is very reliable.
Owner is selling due to personal reasons.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 13 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 5 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all of the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
