1954 Mercury Monterey Transformation! Abandoned in a Field for 29 Years! Will It Run?!?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 дек 2022
- I found this 1954 Mercury 4 door sedan while cruising through my local Facebook barter sites. Story goes that the mans father drove it home roughly 100 miles from an auction and the car basically sat for 30 years after that. Lets see if we can get the old Y-block V8 to fire up once again. This car is SOLD! As always, thanks for watching!

Get to work and quit fooling around with the glove box and bullish. To much talk.
This channel might not be for you Frank.
It's all a part of the show set back relax and enjoy 😎
Frank, don't care for something, but keep liking and watching, you'll catch up soon enough.
Just fast fwd a little bit frank, right into the good stuff!
And, just like that, a new maroon steps into the breech!
Yes. The 2 hour plus Mortske specials are back. Hell yeah 😩🙌. Mortske you inspire me to be a young groovy hot rodder everyday
That's what i'm saying he needs the longer video's on this channel and the short one's on the other channel. Love watching this guy. Really like the comment my friend!
Things you do are awesome keep it up
Yeah it'll be nice to see t 54 Merc rising from the decayed state it was in.
But pay close attention to the bumper because that piece of chrome is the car's smile
Don’t fight the fuel tanks. I modified an old electric concrete mixer with arms and straps to tie the tank to it. Dump a couple of handfuls of self tapping screws and sharp steel stuff in it, add some paint thinner or mineral spirits, cap the holes, and let her tumble all night. Rinse it out when clean, use a magnet to pull out the sharp steel tumbling media. Keep up the fight, Mortske
I always use an old roto-rooter with a couple pounds of ball bearings to do pretty much the same thing, it does a great job and is a lot easier than trying to get it cleaned out with chemicals ( and not to mention it's not as hazardous to your health ) the good thing about the roto-rooter is I didn't have to modify it since it has the easy-release drum,
I just made a separate attachment for it out of an old 20" bike wheel and some angle iron and it is also great for mixing up 5 gallon buckets of paint or polyurethane for when I have to repaint the shop and reseal the back deck.
Dang Son, gotta love a mercury!, I was born in 54 and so this yr Merc has its place in my heart. To bad i dont have the funds or it would be in my drive way, anyway nice rescue and revival of an nice original American classic.
My dad had a 55 ford and to this day he still talks about it being one of his best cars. He'd love to find another one. He will be turning 85 in march and still gets around better than I do at 52yo.
She looks good!
Not bad!
She's in amazing shape for a nearly 70 year old ride Mort. So glad that you put her back on the road and hopefully onto a new home soon.
I hope so too!
I'd set her upon a rack and driver once in a while. Gorgeous car.
The best part about owning a car is being able to do whatever you want to it. Most of the haters don’t even build cars, they’re just internet experts. Keep up the good work Mortske, slam em all.
Will do!
that phrase
" always check your wheels "
you couldn't be more right...
I recently had a problem with my pop-up camper trailer that exemplifies the importance of that...
But, mine didn't have any issues with being tight...
in fact I still had to take the lugnuts off with a 4-way to put the spare on....
I put a pair of borrowed tires/wheels on my pop-up because after 8 years at the deer lease on the Arkansas River the wheels didn't have any rubber left on them....
being a smart man I torqued them down and drove 12 miles to town and back and re-checked them...
they were still good so I started off on my 375 mile trip...
I was about a third of the way to the destination when my pop-up started bouncing like it had a blowout ....
I pulled over and got the shock of my life....
the tire was NOT FLAT ....
it was on the side of the road about 1/4 mile behind me...
now, remember that I said that I still had to unbolt it...
The tire was still inflated and the lugs were tight ...
and i know what you are thinking, no, the hub did not come off
THE RIM ITSELF FAILED....
the outer ring actually separated from the center disc at 75mph.... the wheel had apparently been welded by Stevie Wonder and had come apart at the welds...
I'm over 40 years old and have been around cars and the race track my entire life and That is the first time I have ever seen a rim separate in that way without having over 400 hp trying to do a burn-out on it.
this was on a GUTTED and empty pop-up camper that weighs less than 1700lbs before the cabinets and other stuff got stripped out....
THE REALLY SCARY THING IS THE WHEEL WAS ON THE FRONT OF A DAILY DRIVEN 2012 VW BEETLE WHEN I BORROWED IT....
The guy I borrowed it from said his wife has been driving it to work every day and me borrowing it probably saved her life because she doesn't go under 75 mph on the interstate to get to work....
Dumb luck or God intervening?
Make your own choice.
mine says that the word luck is just us not knowing what the truth is and giving it a generic name.
Crazy 'bout a Mercury! This will be a good one, I'm sure!
Always is when Y-Blocks are involved
Mortske doesn’t have much luck with those Y blocks.
Crazy about a mercury and cruise up down this road
Sounds like a song to me
You need more subscribers buddy. You are the only one on RUclips has a different car or project every week.
Thanks much David!

I drive a school bus for a living and those kids scream for no reason what so ever it is nice to hear an adult talking in a nice calming voice even if it about the mice and bugs, so who cares what you think Frank Ennaro . I used to work on TV shows when I was in the IATSE and I think this kind of content and production values are very good. I know what I am talking about.
"People want to see us fix the old trash though" GODDAMN RIGHT!

"....Gonna Buy Me a Mercury and Drive It up'N'down the Road......".... Thankya....Thankya Verry Much !
Our pleasure!
One of the cars of my youth. From 1950 (the year I was born) until late into the Sixties Dad drove FOMOCO. Flatheads and Y-blocks were the order of the day. It’s the reason for me loving the old Fords so much. Okay, I’ve got a soft spot for the older pre tri-five chevy’s as well. I hope, the person that ends up with the Merc keeps it inside out of the elements and is able to show it off with pride.
Having the original paperwork is awesome and I love seeing it today. Reminder of the things were back in the day.
I tell my dog to hold on too and she braces on the console and back seat. Amazing how smart they are. For Millie it does no good to spell ride after saying go. Go is all she needs to get excited. Really like all that attention to detail and the banter. Duff is a great partner throughout. Thanks for all the great entertainment.
Another GREAT Mortske vid with a really cool 54. 🙂👍
Love 50s cars.
My dad said these were the cars to have back in the day.
Keep it original and just drive it and enjoy it
That’s another Mortsky classic moment, slingshot engage with no spark plugs 😂😂😵💫
whoops
Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. I was born in 54. Thanks!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
In the words of Mr. Magoo " oh Mortske, you've done it again" I am sure someone will be snapping up that Merc quick. That was a great find IMHO. I know it's got to suck editing that much content but I will be honest I really like the extended versions.
Appreciate the feedback
It's a beautiful car in amazing condition. Great find!
Sure is
'" Ican see paradise in the dashboard light ". That 54 Merc has always been my dream car !! Man you sure lucked out with this one, It is ready for the road with just a few tweaks. When you took it on the road it seemed to be back in its glory, I just wish I still had my licence ( I lost it in an industrial accident ) and
just a side note , being 77 dose not help . Thank You for being able to revive a dream and imagine myself
behind the wheel one more time. God Bless You and Duff dog , Have a great X Mass season and remember even a teabag doese'nt show its full strength till its in hot water..Stu from Canada,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Thanks for watching STu!
Yea. Three thumbs up. I think duff was puffin the exhaust pipe thinking it was a bong. Got him in the mood. Lol. 😂 already waiting for the next video
oh boy
2.5 hours? Mortske and Duff the Movie. Dad had an old 67 Monterey Breezeway back in the early 70's. Rear window rolled down. Cool ride. That air cleaner looks like the mother ship from some flying saucer movie.
Sweet!
Why you don't have at least 500k subscribers by now is beyond me.
Much appreciated @sylviajones3355 !!
Mortske crew on the Mercury project, and I am grateful to have a good job.
Thanks for the ride Daddy Mortske, says he the Duff, trusty old pal and rig now that you went over it.
The metal coil in the tank was to keep the gas filler nozzle centered, and prevent them from slipping out and surprising the customer who was smoking while filling up. Looks like that one came loose in 1966. It's good to see you trying to save this old Merc. Harder and harder to find them now. Cheers.
I remember those metal coils being on the gas nozzle itself ...
What an awesome car Mortske! One of my favorites that you have had on the channel. Great job bringing her back to life! This reminded me of when I pulled my 66 Triumph GT6 out of a field after 40 years. You have one of the best channels! Thank you for the great content!
Thanks for watching!
Our family is still enjoying the intro,over 2 years later. It is dufficult to do brodies in a big rig truck cab! I personally love doing brodies really often.
That is awesome!
@@MortskeRepair Your awesome!
An extra long one on a rainy Mortske Monday. Outstanding. 👍🏼 Thanks buddy. 👌🏼
Thanks for watching
I really like that year mercury. The tail lights look so sleek and more modern than other cars of the year. I dig almost any of the early 50s "jet age" cars. So many neat styling cues with out the over the top fins of the later 50s. Another sweet spot for me is just past the big fins into the early 60s but still very jet /aviation inspired ..like early 60s t-birds. My opinion.
Looks good. The older I get the better I like crew cabs lol. And I laughed so hard at Duff and that exhaust pipe! I have never seen a dog do that.
He's something else
Glad we are going to see you guys tomorrow!
A Mortske marathon, HECK YEAH !!
Alan Jackson approves of this video! Always good for MORTSKE MONDAY!
Glad to see you're back making longer videos on 50"s cars. I like your Enginuity and ability to make things happen. I'd like to see this when you get the exhaust and cleaned up a bit.
ingenuity
ingenuity, not Enginuity.
Ingenuity with engines..= enginuity
@@grantkoeller8911that went right over your head eh? It’s an indicator of your Karen personality 😂
And then your next comment flew right under my awareness! It’s an indicator of my adhd personality 😂
If you and Duff Mortske are involved it's good as done!😊
Back in 1967 my good friend Rob lived next door. His dad was a mechanic for a chevy dealer and Rob was mechanical minded just like his father. The family didn't have much money to spare (8 kids), so when Rob was 14 his dad bought him a 54 Merc that wasn't running in order to get the kid a car cheap that Rob could fix up by the time he turned 16. They had a large garage with all the car tools anyone would need, remember his dad is a mechanic. The trans (yes, mercomatic) wasn't working at all, so Rob pulled it out. After a month or so I went over to see Rob while he was in the garage working on the Merc. He had the trans completely taken apart, it looked like a thousand different pieces. All kinds of different springs, bebes, rods, plungers, nuts, bolts, washers, filters and you name it! I was a mechanical guy (later an engineer) myself, but I looked all those pieces all over the place in different pans and tubs, and I though I would never want to take on that job, I'll just stick to manual transmissions. I though how will 14yo Rob ever get this pile of stuff back together. But then I though again, it's Rob he can do it. He did it, it took him two years. He got the trans back together and repaired a few other things all with out much from dad.
Good times!
Loving the long videos sir. Can’t get enough!! The Merc is awesome Mortske, she’s in great shape. You really took care of her brother. Great car!
Thanks for another Mortske Monday. This one looks killer. Good luck! Thanks to the editing department as always. 🐾🍺
Also Mort, thank God this Y-block wasn't stuck from the get! I'll never forget that old Y-block exploderating in your face! Thank God you weren't hurt on that one bud...
You can not beat that style that smarts before internet was epic.
Sweet ride. I bet she'd polish up pretty good! Or it'd look great red with white or cream two-tone-- make it look sporty. Get some wide white walls for it - gtg.
Love the fact that this is a longer video just because I get to spend some more time watching you do your thing, just awesome. I am so working on my 90 Dodge W250 with a 5.9L 360 in it. I got it from a friend that was a Army Vet after he died he was like my brother, we're close. All that inspiration, i'm just saving it up right now, maybe I will make a video on it, never know. Thank you for what you do I know it's not easy messing with a camera and having to deal with not so nice peoples on the internet, but you just keep on man. Have a good one be safe stay warm and God Bless you and your family.
Good luck with your project!
Two thumbs up Mortske! I really appreciate you and Team Morticus for getting these videos out! Good Job guys, Thanks!
Much appreciated!
Fantastic job mortski .that's why you get the big money. every thing on that was top of the line except the hood hinges. The trunk hinges are a work of art. Had a great time. Monday is my favorite day of the week
My mom had one of these when i was about 14 - I still remember - 161 hp, 256 cubes. 2 door sedan with a cheap paint job. Cool car! Ford must have a thing for history. This was the first year for the Y-block. The Fords were 239 cu, just like the flattie, so of course the Merc had to also be 255, like the flattie. Weird.
Great content ! The 54 is sweet ! Appreciate the detail and tech tips ! You have the best crew Sir Duff ! Take care ! Nice work by the editing crew also !
Much appreciated!
That's a nice Merc. That motor was clean inside. Glad to see you having some luck with a Y block. Thanks 👍
Work up to find a 2 hr vid in the in box….coffee and my Sunday planned! Brilliant
I have to say Morske, that’s the finest example of a purchase you’ve had in audited a while. I can’t believe you won’t restore the old hirl. Well, find her a good home.
We get lucky from time to time
Happy to see the channels growing! Great content! Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Looks like a pretty decent rig! Good thing the engine didn't fight you too hard this time. Looking forward to the next video.
I’ve not ever heard that very imaginative but realistic description of a bad fuel tank until now. Thanks. Nope - could’ve went without those smells.
Haha
My neighbor had a 67 Cougar sitting in her driveway under a tarp my entire life. It belonged to her son who had passed away, so she wouldn't sell it. It had been under a tarp and the windows were covered, so the interior was damn near perfect. It had 34K on it. I tried numerous times to buy it, but she wouldn't sell. I worked for a large auto parts retailer at the time, and one day a guy came in buying parts for a '67 Cougar. I asked him where he got it from. He got it from my neighbor. Guess how much he paid for it. 100 fucking dollars! He had been trying to buy it as well, and she just sold to him one day for $100. He had to put about $4000 into it, but he drove it up and let me see it run a few months later. I repeat....she sold this car in 2010 for $100 after I had been trying to buy it, and had offered her a lot more for it. I guess he caught her on the right day.
I hate that! My brother in law did that to me with his 69 Pontiac Tempest! I tried to buy it from him for years and I would have given him a fair price bc the car had no rust and the interior was in excellent condition. He ended up selling it to a stranger for way less than I would have paid for it! 🤬
@@kimberlywilliams9757 Back in the early 80's, my brother bought a '69 Tempest. It was a really nice car except that every time he wanted to start it - he had to crawl
under and jiggle or tap on the shims on the starter.....but, it always ran. He said that he paid $175 for it - bought it from a girl he knew in high
school. When he went to pay for it, he asked her why she was selling it for only $175 ?? Her reply, "Well....I never had $175 before......" !
Right place at the right time I guess. I've bought cars that folks said weren't ever for sale too.
It's really cool to watch you take a car in decent shape and do something with it. It's a different kind of video. I definitely enjoyed watching you do this👍
@user-ts3ie5pb8e ⬆⬆⬆⬆ SCAMMER!!!!! ⬆⬆⬆⬆
If only we had more decent ones!
Impressed with probably the most effort I"ve seen yet for replacing parts. When the flexie hoses came off I knew this was serious! All in good fun bro!
I'm 22 years old and i'm from mexico i love your videos
Thanks for watching in Mexico
That's a sharp car
I agree!!
Sure is!
You have done a great job on this 54 Mercury. Think it will make a great restoration. You have done more on this car. Than you have in awhile. Hope it gets a great home. Thank you Mortske for sharing!
Thanks!
The body is in pretty good shape for its age and the engine sounds great. Very nice find. Hope it goes to a good home.
Duff and the tailpipe was hilarious 😂
He's something else
Awesome revival video and your patience and dedication is nothing short of amazing, thank you
Thanks for watching Wayne!
I’m with you Mortske, I was telling the Ole’ Lady Today that I’m done with Winter in Pa. Tennessee sounds real good to me & my Old Bones. Loving the Two Hours Plus Vidja’s & I know it’s a Ton of work, for that Thank You Kindly Sir I’ll catch you on the next one. Keep It Safe Out There Sir
My dad and I watch you every chance we get always cool to see what your working on and it takes my dad back to his childhood/growing up definitely wish this would give him the push to turn wrenches again with me lol
Thanks for watching to you and your father!
I could see the bend in the pushrod when you pulled it out. I bet that happen back in 2003 when they cleaned the plugs and bought a new battery to get it going and they cranked it over and bent the pushrods.
Likely
Morts, Love watching your videos. This all takes me back to the 60,s and early 70,s when I first got the fever. Lots of stuff you are doing I watched and learned from MY FIL who was a quintessential shade tree mechanic. Thanks for the walk down memory lane and For getting me inspired to get back on my projects. 48 willys pickup old school hot rod. 54 Chevy Convert and 53 chevy Hardtop and Wagon
Our pleasure! Good luck!
Awesome extended video on Mortske Monday! Never been a Pontiac fan but that car was well built and maintained. It deserves a good home and to be made whole! You should keep it. 👊💪👍🙏
Duff trying to snort those mice out of the tailpipe and your comments had me dying.😂😂
Great video as always. Great to see an older car from the 50's being revived. Thanks!!
Thanks Brett!
2 hours and a half of a Mortske & Duff show!!!, thanks!!! i enjoy it while the winter is coming!!!
Our pleasure!
Duff snorting the tail pipe I cannot stop laughing. Who thought up that exhaust manifold. Nice interior
Two and a half hours of Mortske! My week is set! My first impression of this car was "it's too nice for Mortske, I wonder who he is fixing it for?" Then I felt bad for doubting you. Someone is going to get a nice survivor car and $4500 is a good deal!
Loved this episode. That old Merc is sweet. Can't believe the floors were still there. Back in the 50s when I was a kid my Dad bought a new 57 Merc Turnpike Cruiser station wagon. Red and white. It was good looking and would haul ass . That Merc you have has a lot of potential. Thanks for putting extra time, effort and parts into it to get it in running condition. I also love the 55 Fords but the 57 was sharp. Robert Mitchum drove a black one in the movie Thunder Road as a moonshine runner.
Awesome!
What a beauty.. so much detail,, owning this back in the day (new) would be real cool..
the eleven minute mark with Duff ,,sucking the tail pipe had me rolling!!!!
Good deal! Much better than the other crippled vehicles that usually follow you home! This Mercury is pure class. So glad you and Sir Duff got it running (thanks to some interwebs parts).
Again, thank you Mr. Mortske and Sir Duff to present quality entertainment and repair knowledge. Please don't sell the shop!
Thanks for the kind words!
I had a 55 customline in theUSA service,223 six auto,,rebuilt the engine and ran it forever,,always been a ford man
These Ford V8 "Y blocks" had valve train oiling issues that can be modified. Nice that you saved that old beauty.
Right on
Mortske im so glad you and Chin keep the show low buck I mean that with respect. I been watching for a long time and the show is as great as I first seen it. God bless yall.
We try out best!
Nice job on bringing the’54 back to life.
Cool ride
thanks!
That spring in the fuel tank looks like the springs they used to put on gas nozzles back in the day. Nice car, great video! 👍
Likely
Those Mercury Cars are so classy looking .
Sure are!
That’s the cleanest car ever on your channel… the “American Made” quality is amazing! I actually felt upset when you beat the hell out of the ORIGINAL battery cables!! Crazy cool find! I hate the crap we buy today! Just think… it was $2,500. or less off the showroom floor… G-Dang… for a living room with two couches ON freekin wheels!!
Always fun with Mortske! This is a great car!
The car is pretty interesting nice to see an in depth discussion of problems with the engine push rods etc. The dog is pretty cool too,
Hey Mortske like your videos on all these oldies and wrecks. My moms first car was a 56 mercrury Montclair and she got it in '58 she loved that car Jet, Black with a red leather interior it was a tank and my dad kept that old Y block running like a clock.....she had it for almost 20 years before she finally gave it up. Sold it to a kid who was going to run it in demolition derbys : ) said it was perfect for what he wanted....he was sure right about that built like a tank : )
Loved the car. Loved the video. Mondays don’t come around soon enough. Well, maybe for you they do.
Never known of anyone with the depth and breadth of knowledge that you have regarding cars and trucks from the eras that you do. Especially at your relatively young age.
Your videos are real. None of the polished, hyped up crap you see on these fast talking, super sparkly videos about cars, parts and modifications that are beyond the means of many shade tree mechanics with families, bills etc to deal with.
You show how it can be done with some basic hand tools and creativity. One of my other favorite You Tubers went the way of the glitz and quite frankly his schtick got old and the glitz ain’t cuttin it.
I like your grit, don’t change. If what you’re doing makes you happy, keep it up. I know you grumble here and there, but your excitement and pleasure when a project is finished while you’re behind the wheel is just as obvious.
Take ‘er easy mate. Keep the greasy side down!
Much appreciated for the kind words!
You really did a great job. I've had a '54 Ford for 45 years. Most trouble free car ever.
Thanks 👍
Just queued this video up and was stoked to see it being 2 plus hours long!!!
I got a 54 Ford customline 3 on the tree with overdrive flathead straight 6 thanks Mr mortske love the merc
MORTSKE..
YOU HIT THE JACKPOT!! THAT'S MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE CAR!!IT'S SWEET, JUST THE WAY IT IS!!!!
As Cold as it is hete in Cold Alberta; I'd be working on that Beauty even in this Weatber.
I really like that beautiful old car, made the same year I was born..I love it, give it love it's worth restoring.
Love this video. The older cars are so awesome. Keep her and drive her
I am glad your giving her a little love someone buys her and floors and mounts they will a sweet ride good job like always
Thanks 👍
I like that you fixed more stuff on this video. Replace the rotted metal, install new tank and exhaust and clean and this Merc becomes a going to town rig.
I'm with ya on the 2 vs 4 doors.In my younger days it'd HAVE to be a coupe but as I've gotten older comfort over style is a thing.Cool old car,would'nt mind owning it myself.
