1941 Mercury Model 19A Coupe

The Mercury was an instantaneous success, with around 75,000 examples built and delivered in its first year of production. The following year, more than 81,000 examples were sold. In 1941, the body styles were standardized between Mercury and Ford, and the two cars used essentially the same body styles aft of the nose. The Mercury models were given more exterior trim and a more luxurious interior.

This 1941 Mercury Coupe is believed to have the original black finish it wore when it left the factory. Inside, there is an original grey cloth interior, original glass, and the painted steel wheels and stainless body trim are still in fine condition.

It is believed that the car was originally delivered to a Ford executive in the Detroit area. It remained in his family for over five decades before coming into the care of Ken McGee in Ontario, from whom the late Jim Miller purchased it. Currently, the car has 37,892 actual miles.
