This custom 1939 Mercury is powered by an original 239ci Flathead
V8 engine paired with a 3-speed manual transmission. This 3-year
build was completed in 2020. It underwent a frame-off build using
all-original metal and the original drivetrain. The original V8
engine has undergone a full rebuild, including a new polished
crank. All new rod, main and cam bearings were installed. New
pistons, rods and piston rings were used. New Edelbrock aluminum
heads were installed, as well as new studs. A new Edelbrock 500cfm
carburetor, oil pump, water pump and radiator were installed at the
time of the engine build. During the restoration there were
multiple upgrades, including all-new upholstery, glass, tires,
wheels, brakes, suspension, clutch, shocks and a dual exhaust. The
original 6-volt generating system was converted to an all-new
12-volt charging system. The original 1939 owner's manual and
factory repair manual come with the sale.
