The Mercs are neat trucks, I've always liked them. Looks like a good truck to bring back to life.

If that were a 1/2 Ton I would be up there with a strong bid in mind,

The grill alone in that Truck will bring a good dollar, looks as though its all complete, plus other exclusive to Mercury Truck only trim pieces.

I can sure agree with you there. The Mercury half ton is highly sought after, on both sides of the 49th parallel. This truck looks very restorable for someone with the space to do it.

The majority of these larger Farm Trucks never see winter, once Harvest is done they were put up in the Barn nice dry storage.

We pulled one out of a barn a 1930 Model TT and aside from the faded paint and scratches a few dents the sheet metal was as new.

Those grilles are fairly fragile too, the bars being of stainless steel. I bought a complete front grille from a '47 1/2 ton that was parted out several years ago, the go for about 3 times the price of a comparable Ford grille.

...The Mercurys Trucks were unique as they were Canadian only. I have had this one for about 5 years. Completely original unrestored. Runs like a top. I have traced it thru owners to the early 50's. Its been well taken care of all its life. ... And no, its not for sale.
