THIS CAR HAS AN INTERESTING STORY,,,

SAME FAMILY OWNED SINCE NEW.

A FEW YEARS BACK MOM AND DAD DECIDED TO RESTORE THEIR ONCE NEW CAR THAT ACCUMULATED MANY GREAT MEMORIES OVER THE YEARS.  KEEP IN MIND THAT THEY ARE MUCH OLDER AT THIS POINT AND THEIR NOW GROWN CHILDREN WERE AGAINST HAVING THEIR PARENTS SPEND THEIR MONEY (MUCH MORE THAN THE VEHICLE WAS WORTH) TO RESTORE IT BACK TO GRANDER DAYS.

MOM AND DAD GOT THEIR WAY (AS THEY SHOULD HAVE) AND SO THE PROCESS BEGAN.

THE MERC WAS NOT BAD JUST NOT HAVING BEEN DRIVEN MUCH AND SORT OF AGED WITH TYPICAL OLD CAR PATINA, THEY DECIDED TO HIRE A PROFESSIONAL RESTORATION FACILITY TO HANDLE ALL THE NEEDED TIDEOUS WORK.

THE CAR WAS STRIPPED OF EVERYTHING BUT A ROLLING SHELL THEN PAINTED.

THE INTERIOR HAD THE FABRIC SPECIAL ORDERED THEN STITCHED AS IT WAS ORIGINAL WHEN NEW. (PRE-MADE TO FIT REPLACEMENT COVERS WERE NOT AVAILABLE SO THEY WERE ABLE TO LOCATE THE SUPPLIER AND HAVE THE SAME MATERIAL REPRODUCED NEW FOR THE PROJECT) INCIDENTALLY WE HAVE A LEFT OVER PORTION STILL ON ROLL.

THE DRIVELINE WAS TAKEN OUT AND RE-FRESHENED THEN RE MOUNTED IN A NOW CLEAN AND FRESHLY PAINTED ENGINE BAY.

ALL THE STAINLESS WAS ALSO REMOVED ALONG WITH ALL THE CHROME BUMPERS AND TRIM. STAINLESS WAS STRAIGHTNED AND POLISHED AND BUMPERS WERE RE-CHROMED AND RE-INSTALLED.

YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY TELL THIS WAS A PROJECT DERIVED FROM LOVE FOR THE AUTOMOBILE AND WHAT IT HAS MEANT TO THEM.

THIS MONTEREY HAS SINCE THE RESTORATION BEEN PARKED AND SELDOMLY DRIVEN.  NOW IT IS AVAILABLE FROM PRIVATE COLLECTION TO ITS NEW HOME FOR MANY MORE GREAT CRUISE NIGHT MEMORIES TO COME WITH THE NEW OWNERS.
