Hurt my eyes as well when I saw the first on on the street. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Skelly Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The driver's side windows don't fit well. Why do so many older convertibles have tops that don't fit properly over the windows? Is it usually due to shrinkage of the top or the installers don't know what they are doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrinkage and/or bad side cables. The top should only be up when it’s raining anyway. 😀 I like the color. You certainly won’t see another one like it!

kingrudy Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I could get used to the color over time, but for 35K, I will pass. The 55, 56 Mercuries sure are attractive cars IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a convertible fan for almost any make car so this has no appeal but if it were a hardtop…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
