Description
This 1948 Mercury Eight four-door station wagon was refurbished under previous ownership and was formerly part of the Nick Alexander collection. Power is provided by a 239ci flathead V8 linked to a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission and a Columbia two-speed rear axle. Finished in Tucson Tan with wood bodywork over red leather upholstery, equipment includes 15″ steel wheels, hydraulic drum brakes, and three rows of bench seating. The car was acquired by the owner in 2026 and is now offered on dealer consignment in Idaho with service records and a clean Montana title in the name of the owner’s LLC. The steel panels are finished in Tucson Tan, and the coachwork incorporates maple framing and mahogany paneling. Equipment includes a dark brown artificial leather roof covering, a split rear tailgate, a cowl vent, a driver-side mirror, and driving lights. Chrome brightwork encompasses the vertical-bar grille, window trim, side moldings, and bumpers. Rear fender skirts are installed, and dual exhaust outlets exit beneath the rear bumper.
