Like it or not, sometimes it’s good to break tradition. And breaking tradition is one thing that makes this Merc so impressive. Lift the car’s domed hood and you’ll find 454 cubic inches of big block muscle that mixes miles of power with mountains of torque! A tough 700R4 4-speed drives a sturdy Ford 9-inch, which pushes a fully boxed chassis. At the nose of that chassis, a Fat Man front-half centers power rack-and-pinion steering between pliable air bags. At the back of that chassis, a modern 4-bar setup utilizes two more air bags to increase grip and maintain ride height.
Power front disc and rear drum brakes are a welcome addition and big performance upgrade. And everything rides on red steelies, which spin 185/70R15 front, and 225/70R15 rear, BF Goodrich Silvertown Radial whitewalls around mind-bending covers. With its massaged motor, smooth-shifting 4-speed, comfortable interior and vintage swagger, you’ll never tire of finding this Merc in your garage.
