Post-War & Chrome / 1946–1959

1954 Mercury M-100

No. 090 of 207

This rare and unique resto-mod truck was donated to the museum by its founder, Mel Martin.

The Mercury M series is a series of pickup trucks that was marketed by the Mercury division of Ford Motor Company. Produced from 1946 to 1968, the Mercury M series was sold primarily in Canada, as a rebadged version of the Ford F series.

This highly customized truck is one of a kind. More than $170,000 was invested in the custom build, with approximately $60,000 in chrome — including every nut and bolt. The roof was chopped 2 inches and cab windows etched. It also has a unique plexiglass truck bed that allows you to see the many of the custom details.
