1941 Mercury Eight Convertible

This 1941 Mercury is a two-door convertible that was acquired from a collection by the selling dealer in 2020, reportedly following a refurbishment under previous ownership that included a repaint in cream, interior reupholstery in red leather, and new brightwork. Power is from a 239ci flathead V8 paired with a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission featuring synchromesh. Additional features include a replacement power-operated soft top, rear wheel spats, a clock, and an AM radio. This Mercury convertible is offered with a spare wheel and a clean Arizona title. The car was repainted in cream and fitted with replacement brightwork under previous ownership according to the selling dealer. The replacement power-operated black convertible top is shown raised in the gallery below and stows under a black boot when lowered. Additional details include rear fender skirts, running boards, and fender-mounted parking lights. Body-colored steel wheels wear chrome Mercury-branded hubcaps, trim rings, and wide-whitewall tires. A walk-around video is provided by the selling dealer. The interior houses front and rear bench seats that have been reupholstered in red leather as well as matching side panels and rear carpets. Black vinyl covers the front floors. Amenities include a clock, an AM radio, and a locking glovebox. The two-spoke steering wheel features a horn ring and frames a 110-mph speedometer as well as a quartet of rectangular gauges. The five-digit odometer shows 54 miles, with the actual total unknown. The 239ci flathead V8 uses 24-stud cylinder heads, a single downdraft carburetor, a six-volt electrical system with a center-mounted generator, and period-style fabric ignition wires. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission with synchromesh. Additional underbody photographs are provided in the gallery and a walk-around video can be seen below.
