SAD DAY IN HISTORY 1935-2010

OK so I know this is a mopar site but its always sad to see an old friend past, today FORD announced they will end the Mercury brand for good to help produce better lincolns and fords. From the early 30s-40s rods to the iconic cougars of the late 60's and 70's you will be missed Mercury

It sucks that a distinctly American industry is no longer American.

As bad as losing Mercury is (it's been gone for a few years already in Canada) nothing hurt more than losing Plymouth...-I spent 10 years on this 59 Belvy but it was worth every penny to preserve history.
