A little about my car

My car is a 1964 Mercury Monterey Breezway edition. I purchased this beauty for only $4000 in the spring of 1999.

Under construction

Features

• V8 engine 390 cubic inchs rebuilt with the addition of a holley four barrel carb, and a high duration cam
• Breezway rear window (this is a power rear window, the "rolls down" behind the rear seat
• 3 speed automatic transmission
• Tires BF Goodrich Radials T/A , front: P225/70 SR15 M+S 100S, rear: P275/60 R15 M+S 107S
  Rear tires seem to be a little wide, they were rubbing the body if you had too much weight in back, added a set of helper leaf springs that seemed to fix the problem
• 15 inch, "baby moon" chrome rims

Interesting notes

• Gas Milage: Up to 11 mpg highway (No kidding) I been told by other monterey owners, with the orgional engine and 2 barrel carb, they get about 18 mpg
• Very comfortable for 7 people (you need that many friends to chip in for gas)
