Vehicle DetailsRare 1962 monterey
Only year this specific body style was made I believe less than 9000 were made with this specific configuration
Engine is either a 352fe v8 or 390fe only way to verify is to measure the stroke but it runs very well no smoke or oil burning present
2 speed mercomatic works flawlessly cruises 70mph comfortablely
New brake lines shoes hardware and wheel bearings in the front. Does not have power brakes
Replaced some bushings in the front end which is tight no play whatsoever in the ball joints, tie rod ends etc.
Newer shocks rides good
Replacing the power steering lines out of maintenance which works flawlessly
Dual exhaust with chambered mufflers sounds good but does have a slight exhaust leak somewhere
Floors are good except drivers side which I have replaced that floor pan with a reproduction. There is also a small hole on the passenger side floor I have a Floorplan for that as well but the hole is about 6" so haven't felt the need to replace that.
Car was recently painted. It was extremely solid prior to being painted had a few pin holes and surface rust that were professionally repaired prior to paint.
The body isn't perfect there are a few very minor dings here and there as expected for a car of this age.
Car was painted 2020 jaguar brittish racing effect
Appears as a solid green color in low light and changes to a bright green metallic finish in sunlight. Allot of compliments on the color.
I think all of the chrome trim for the car is in the trunk with extra trim pieces along with probably 1000.00 in extra parts like chrome headlight bezels extra tail lights,grill etc.
The car does run and drive. I've driven it multiple car shows and cruises.
It should be considered a driving project that still needs quite a bit of work but still gets allot of attention the way it is.
