I have a 1972 Mercury Monterey Custom that is a rare find. It is sporty and in very great condition. It was stored in a garage under a tarp for many years. I have owned this vehicle for over 10 years. All original except: tires and battery. heater core. which are all new. Original paint - original interior - original vinyl top - original motor etc. The Original Spare tire is in the trunk & Never been used. This car is in Yakima. Wa. which is the desert side of Washington state. So it has been in a dry climate most of its time. I bought it with 12. 00 mi (I had 2 certified mechanics go over it at different time. and they verified that the miles are original. No roll backs etc)18. 12 original miles; 400 C. I. motor with a two barrel carb (original). It was produced on 3/07/1972 in the St Louis assembly plant. Red exterior; Vinyl interior scheme; White interior color w/Black components; Auto trans XPL type; Standard ratio non locking rear axle; H78 X 15/B white sidewalls; Electroc clock; Convience group; Power seat; fender skirts; AM radio; Intermittent wipers; Appearance protection group; Tinted glass all around; Power windows; power door locks. 400 CID 2 valve V8 engineI have gone through the car with a certified mechanic. We did minor work and the car is in GREAT SHAPE!!! Being original paint. there are a few minor rub marks and small scratches. It was under a tarp in a garage for years in Washington State. for years. You can find a few flaws on it and If you come to look. I w/point them out to you. If you are interested. I can e-mail you pictures of any flaws (the original vinyl top is beginning to crack. small ding in trunk and original paint has wear and some scratches). very good for a car of this age. It purrrrrrs like a kitten going down the hiway. I have had it for 10 years and it had 12. 00 miles when I bought it. It currently has just over 18. 00 miles. This would be a GREAT CAR for a collector. I am asking $12. 95. 00 but will consider ALL reasonable offers. You need to come look at it and drive it home or haul it yourself.
