This captivating 1953 Mercury M100 Pickup, a street rod hailing from Fairfield, New Jersey, undergoes a remarkable transformation through previous ownership's modifications. Originally crafted in the era of tailfins and chrome excess, this M100 now proudly displays a vibrant purple repaint accented by custom pink upholstery within its cabin, presenting an invigorating contrast. Under the hood lies a robust 350ci Chevrolet V8 engine, mated to a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission for smooth power delivery. The classic truck's handling and stability have been enhanced with components borrowed from a Pontiac Firebird, including its front suspension setup, and a Chevrolet Monte Carlo rear axle, ensuring a modern driving experience wrapped in timeless styling. Currently active on Bring a Trailer, this unique M100 offers an irresistible blend of nostalgia and performance, with bids starting at $20,500.
