As the records show in the history file of this beautifully presented Mercury Sun Valley, the vehicle benefits from a relatively well understood ownership history. From some point in the early 1990s, the car was under the car of a Mr. Ralph Wells. An undated letter addressed to him from the car's previous owner, Anothny Nizza, describes a full frame off restoration being conducted on the vehicle. Numerous sheets of paper further show the extent of the work by listing the various components that were either mended or replaced. Unsurprisingly, by the time the museum came to own the vehicle in 1994, it was in truly splendid condition.
Its pale yellow and green paint both appear with good shine as does the chrome. Inside, the matching vinyl interior presents in very much the same good condition.
Reported to be a lovely long-distance driver thanks to the ample visibility and light provided by the plexiglass rood, this Mercury will make for a purely enjoyable weekend cruiser for its next lucky owner.
