Mercury M1 Pickup

1952 Ford Other Pickups Mercury M1

This is a 1952 Mercury M1 which is the Canadian only version of a Ford F1.
This truck started as an Alberta, believed to be one previous owner, farm truck. The original flathead was cracked like so many Flatheads are, so the truck had been parked in a machinery quonset for many years prior to my purchase of it. This is a solid example of a rare Canadian only 1952 Mercury 1/2 ton. The bed wood is believed to be original.
This was a complete frame off rebuild. Everything on this truck has been redone with the exception of preserving the original patina on the exterior. All chassis/suspension, driveline (including the transmission), and various other parts were professionally powder coated. The cab was removed and the interior, fire wall, cab underside were all sandblasted and repainted. Any and all seals, rubbers, cab mounts etc. were replaced. Some of the features include:
-Full 12 volt conversion with new wiring bumper to bumper.
-A completely freshly rebuilt Ford 239 ci Flathead V8. Built by a very reputable machinist (Power Tech Engines) This engine was balanced to within 1 gram and runs exceptionally smooth. There is less than 500 miles on this engine.

I have this truck currently registered in Alberta. I have put on less than 500 mile in order to make sure everything is dialed into where it should be. A complete overall inspection and complete alignment of the entire truck has been completed. Everything works. There is nothing that needs to be done to this truck in order for someone to take it and enjoy it. Foreign bidders please be well versed in your import requirements prior to bidding.
The finished product speaks to the great amount of time and money put into this truck. This truck drives real nice and straight and has no issues maintaining hiway speeds. I am very satisfied with the quality of this truck, but would suggest anyone with any questions to please contact me.
