1950 Mercury 2dr. Sedan
This 1950 Mercury 2‑door Coupe is a remarkably well‑preserved example that has spent its life in some of the best climates for long‑term survival—Oklahoma, Arkansas, and California. Purchased new at Fidler‑Harlan in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, it later became part of a private collection, where it was cared for and maintained with long‑term preservation in mind.
The body is rust‑free and was repainted once in its striking Roanoke Green, presenting with a clean, consistent finish. It recently received a professional top‑to‑bottom detail, enhancing its already impressive presentation.
Inside, the car retains its original‑style mohair interior, a rare and desirable feature that complements its period‑correct character. The finished trunk, complete with spare tire, adds to its authenticity and usability.
Under the hood sits the classic 239ci flathead V8, equipped with headers, dual exhaust, and an oil filter—a combination that delivers the unmistakable sound and feel of a true early‑’50s Mercury. Power is routed through a column‑shift 3‑speed manual transmission with overdrive, making it a pleasure to drive both around town and on the open road.
Additional features include:
Wide whitewall tires with full wheel trim rings and caps
Fender skirts
Push‑button radio
Windshield washers
Odometer showing 62,800 miles
This Mercury embodies the charm, style, and mechanical honesty that made these cars icons of the postwar era. With its rust‑free history, preserved interior, tasteful mechanical enhancements, and long-term collector ownership, it stands as a standout example ready for shows, cruising, or continued preservation.
