Thanks its a conglomerant (?) the truck is a 1960/58 ford many donor parts from each. And I found the Mercury badging on ebay and stole it I believe. Tailgate was a different story but found it on a Mercury truck forum sales thread. I just really like the look of the 60 Merc and since the parts came from a Mercury clone in the first place I didn't fell bad for stripping the parts. The first Merc I saw was Pat Fords (F100 Supernats promoter) 1957 Merc truck clone (which he has sence sold) that started it all.

FTE member Col Flashman has a 1958 M100.

It's been in the family since new, and was bought in Riverside CA.

Someone in the family arranged that with someone they knew at FoMoCo.

Merc trucks were never sold in the US.
