Up for Auction is a really nice 1960 Mercury Monterey Black Convertible. This was my dad's car and he had restored it back in the 80's. It is still very much presentable and shows very well. I have had it for the past 10 years and had it gone through mechanically 4 years ago. At that time all new brakes were put on as well as hoses replaced that were aging. I take the car out a couple of times a year and have put less than 500 miles on it since my dad had passed away.  
I can tell you that when I do take it out it's a real head turner. People approach me at gas stations and other locations were I have stopped and just want to look it over and talk about it and times gone past. It is truly a piece of Americana and everyone seems to want to take it in. This is a perfect Sunday driver that isn't going to win you first place awards at the shows but will win you a lot of fans on the road.
My dad was a great mechanic and an amateur restorer. I remember growing up in the 60's and 70's  watching him work all winter long in a small single car detached garage on many of his projects through the cold Northeast winters. His first I remember was an 1948 Ford convertible that he would have to drive into the garage with it close to one side so he would have room enough to work on the other side around 4 feet. He would do all the mechanical and body work including painting. Later he aspired to build a 2 car garage were he continued his passion for restoration and this is were he restored this beautiful car. My dad was also a founding member of the Reminiscers car club in our local town. I loved my dad and this car. however it is time for someone else to enjoy his work and this beautiful car. It comes with a current New York State inspection. Following are some specifications I was able to find regarding the car.
