george 53 Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Wow, Tom, I never knew Merc made trucks that late into the 50's. I knew they made early 50's trucks, like 49/50, but not that late. What year did Merc STOP makin trucks. OR were they Canadian?
Tom Jackson Posted November 23, 2008 Author Posted November 23, 2008 Its Canada only till mid 60's i could be wrong
Raul_Perez Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 I always liked the cars with BIG fins!! They're just too cool!!
62SS Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 Great projects Tom. The truck is nice but I love old caddies. Keep up the good work and be sure to show them here when their finished. Ed

What year did Merc STOP makin trucks. OR were they Canadian? Ford trucks built in Canada were badged and trimmed as Mercury Trucks for about 25 yrs or so. Art
James Flowers Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 I like the truck. Don't know they made Mercury trucks of those years.
