1951 Mercury Custom Lead Sled

We have for sale a one of a kind car. This is a 1951 Mercury Lead Sled with award winning custom paint and an award winning leather custom interior. This car features a GMPP ZZ3 crate engine and a turbo 350 automatic transmission for easy starting and nice road manners for driving. The car has a 10 bolt posi rear differential and a complete air bag suspension. The bottom of the car is completed to the level the top is. the rear differential is painted to match the yellow. the wheel wells are painted to match the green and the front section of the car has stainless steel mirrored plates and the rear has a polished fuel cell. The engine compartment. valve covers and air cleaner are also painted to match. The car features stainless steel exhaust exiting directly in the center of the rear bumper via an 8 inch polished stainless steel tip. The car also has GM front disc brakes.

The car's interior is done in a saddle colored carpeting with white leather seats and trim. Inside you will see Vintage Air in the center console and the system is completely hidden from view. The rear view mirror features a transmission gear shift indicator that has an amber glow. Both front seats are power as are the windows and door locks. The car has power steering and a custom steering wheel. Last but not least the car has tinted glass the entire way around. The rear view camera is mounted on the center console for ease of use. The hidden rear water squirt nozzles and air horns are also remote controlled.

The exterior of the car was painted by us in a tri-stage PPG paint called "Yella". The flames. again done by us are in green and the paint is "Green with Envy". As you can see the paint flips between yellow. orange and green. depending on the lighting. The flames have smoke air brushed in at the front and bottom of the car and has a demon hidden in 3D relief on the hood at the nose. The doors have been completely shaved and are remote operated as is the rear deck lid. The flames have been edged and trimmed off by hand with a lighter color green. The car is set off by a pair of Lake Pipes with matching green flame tips.

The battery has been relocated to the rear and the fuel cap is hidden inside the trunk. The basis for this car was a California owned Mercury which by itself cost $40. 00. 00 a decade ago. There is no way to build this car for under $150k and have it done right as this one is. This car is kept in a climate controlled garage year round and has never seen rain let alone snow. If you have an interest please contact Paul from Carlevale Custom Cars at 717-439-5748. We will consider serious offers only and possible trades depending on what they are.
