I've narrowed it down to a late 1956 Mercury, but the argent valve cover with blue lettering throws me off. Shouldn't it just be all blue?

I'm thinking it is a 1955 merc. The windshield washer bottle is a glass style jar and the 56's has the bags.

As for the color I have no idea of the combos for cars. But I like it!
