Description

Custom car culture runs deep with the 1949 Mercury Coupe Lead Sled. The stunning Burgundy Red Metallic finish amplifies every curve of the extensively modified body. Traditional chopped roof proportions lower the roofline dramatically, while frenched headlights, dual spotlights, and custom stripes add period-correct modifications. The custom grille gives a distinctive front-end look, complemented by Cadillac-style tail lights for a classic touch. Sitting on 15" Cadillac wire wheels wrapped in 205/75R15 tires, this Mercury combines timeless custom elements with real road presence.

The tan interior mixes vinyl and cloth on the split-bench seat for comfort on longer drives. Red painted dashboard surfaces extend the exterior theme into the cabin while housing clear, legible gauges. A Grant steering wheel offers excellent control, while an aftermarket Sony radio with Bluetooth capabilities adds modern audio to this classic cruiser. Luxury features include power windows, power seats, and a tilt wheel for optimal driving position. The mix of vintage style and useful upgrades makes a comfortable, functional cabin.

The 472 cubic inch V8 pushes substantial power through a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. Topped with a Holley 4-barrel carburetor, this powerplant gives excellent performance. The engine bay looks great with red-painted valve covers, intake manifold, and inner fenders for a unified appearance. A Champion aluminum radiator with dual electric fans keeps temperatures down, while MSD ignition gives consistent spark. HydroBoost-powered front disc brakes handle stopping duties, and side-exit exhaust with electric dump controls adds a throaty sound when wanted.
