Custom 1949 Mercury Eight Station Wagon Conversion

This distinctive vehicle is a custom 1949 Mercury Eight Station Wagon Conversion, meticulously crafted during a multi-year project completed in 2007. Originally manufactured in the United States in 1949, this classic American station wagon was transformed under prior ownership by installing a powertrain featuring a robust 355ci V8 engine and a smooth-shifting 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission. Other notable modifications include a complete overhaul of the front suspension to enhance handling, a chopped windshield and doors for a sleek appearance, and custom-fabricated quarter panel extensions, complemented by Ford-style rear quarter windows to emphasize its wagon status. Currently based in San Jose, California, this unique piece of automotive history is actively seeking new enthusiasts through an online listing with no reserve.
