1947 MERCURY SERIES 79M CONVERTIBLE ONLY 7,677 ORIGINAL MILES! PREVIOUSLY OWNER, FAMED COUNTRY/WESTERN SINGER, BUCK OWENS, WHO PURCHASED IT FROM A MUSEUM IN NEW MEXICO! OPTIONS INCLUDE: AM RADIO CLOCK POWER TOP SIDE SK
1947 MERCURY SERIES 79M CONVERTIBLE
Finished in original Maize Yellow with beautiful Deep Burgundy and Tan interior and Gray convertible top. This incredible motorcar was previously owned by famed country/western singer, Buck Owens, who purchased it from a museum in New Mexico. The car was kept at his home in Arizona and then purchased from his widow. Spectacular original condition with mostly original paint and original interior. We are proud to offer what we believe to be one of the lowest mile Mercury convertibles on the market today. Bid with confidence – you will not be disappointed in this one-of-a-kind find! HISTORY OF THE 1947 MERCURY: It wasn’t until April 3 1947 that Lincoln-Mercury (and Ford) announced the “Spring Models” that are generally considered to be the “true” 1947s. The easiest way to identify them was by the stainless strip that ran along both sides of the hood. The 1946 strip extended nearly to the front of the hood, while the two strips of 1947 1/2-1948 extended barely half way forward of the cowl. The upper grille frame was now chromed, eliminating the need for the three bright stripes at each outer end. Trunklid trim and bumper guards were mildly revised. Hubcaps and instrument faces were slightly different, as well. Actually, the biggest change was the price, up $150 on average from 1946. The Sportsman was gone, and the slow-selling two-door Sedan was eliminated after only 34 were produced for 1947. Model-year production for 1947 came in at 86,383 units (including the early 1947s). By stark contrast, Ford produced 5 times more for that year. Of those produced, only a mere 10,221 convertibles were produced, and now only a fraction of those survive.

Financing

Finance rates as low as 8.9%.


We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.


We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.


Terms available up to 144 Months


If you have any questions, feel free to contact us, (314)291-7000 or credit@schmitt.com
