Basic Information and History

This 1956 Mercury Custom is an iconic American classic, imported from the USA and has had 5 previous owners in Sweden. The mileage cannot be verified, and there is no vehicle history or documentation to confirm it. The car has an older repaint that gives it a nice overall appearance, although minor blemishes are present, which are expected for a car of this age. This example is not a show car, but it works excellently as a summer cruiser and provides an enjoyable driving experience.

The wheels are in good condition with no damage, and the tires have good tread depth. The interior is complete but shows signs of use, with wear on the rear backrests and some stains. Otherwise, the cabin is unaltered without any aftermarket accessories or upgrades.

Condition

The body is in decent condition without any dents, major scratches, or door dings. The chrome has some minor rust spots and pitting but looks reasonably good from a distance. The paintwork is an older repaint that still looks nice, despite small imperfections. The glass is in good condition, with only minor marks on the front vent windows. The steering wheel, controls, and buttons are used but intact, and all electronics are functioning as they should.

The engine is fully functional without any modifications or optimizations, and the transmission and drivetrain are in good condition without any unusual noises, except for a minor exhaust leak. The brakes are also in good condition.

Service History

The car has been serviced privately without any documentation or service book following the manufacturer's intervals. The last approved inspection was in 2017, and no previous inspection records are available.
