I have seen these on other 53 mercs. I was told it was for fords 50 th anniversary. Bill
Thanks for the insight. I'm trying to decide a direction for this car, if it is something unusual, I will keep it stock. Otherwise, I would like to make a couple mods for better everyday drive-ability.

I have recently purchased a 53' Merc Monterey 2-door HT. Noticed it is a little emblem on the dash that says it is a 50th Anniversary Edition. Is this a special edition car or was this emblem placed on all 53' Merc's. I did a little web searching but did not come up with the answer.

Thanks for the honest feedback and somewhat of a reality check. I find myself to easily attracted to almost any classic car. Even worse, I'm itching for a project. I to thought the price was high.
I live east of Denver, transportation will not be an issue, what ever a fuel I use and a few $$ to my buddy to borrow his trailer.
If I proceed, this would be my first frame off project. Having completed a couple of project cars over the years I am fairly confident with my ability to put this car back in shape. I just need to make sure I'm not getting in over my head in terms if money and time.
I'm still not 100% convinced this is the car that is best for me in terms of what I want to do with it, budget etc. I have been seriously considering a 64-66' Imperial too.......decisions, decisions! I think it is best if I keep looking. This particular car has been sitting on the dealers lot for at least a couple of months. I expect it will be there down the road.

New here - looks like a great forum. I have spent many hours reading here:)
I have the itch for a project car. I have been looking at a bunch of different things online and in person and have narrowed it down to a couple of options. One of them is the 41' Buick in the link below.
My question; I have no idea ho much I should pay for an older project car. The asking price seems high, but I don't even know where to start negotiating. Any help would be appreciated. Interested in comments on the car too. Thanks!

I'm looking for a rear bumper for my 59' Super 88 4dr HT. Need not be perfect, but must be repairable without too much expense. Also looking for some misc trim, interior and exterior for the same car. Let me know if you have anything you would like to get rid of. Thanks!
