Sweet ride.... beautiful.

I've got essentially the same car except in original gold paint with a vinyl top, 4-door, and a 390 FE. Love the old girl! Someone initially bought her from the original owner with intention of pulling the 390 and scrapping the rest, but they couldn't do it because she was in too good of shape. Glad they didn't! "Lucy" (as we call her) has become a part of the family and is a great car! There's always some small things under the hood in need of repair, but I expect that with a 40+ year old car. I'd love to remove the vinyl top at some point (even though it's in good shape) and have the top sanded and painted. Interior was equally as immaculate as this old gal in the video! Great cars! Glad to see another '69 Monterey out there getting love, too!

Nice car, always liked the 1969-70 full sized Mercury's a lot, always felt the Monterey of this generation should've been a huge seller, I also noticed your car has the optional passenger side mirror which wasn't very common in 1969.

everyone was so impressed with the new 69 Marquis, these Monterey's got kind of lost in the shuffle!

R.I.P. Mercury (1939-January Tuesday 4,2011) for 72 years 🚘 😞

I always felt as though Mercury was under rated. When I was 12 yrs of age I remember watching my uncle work on his 65' Comet Caliente. He later gave it to me . Loved that car but because we lived on NE it was a rust bucket : (
