#3 - 1955 Monarch Richelieu

            "Well if I had money, I tell you what I'd do,
I'd go downtown, buy a Mercury or two,
I'm crazy 'bout a Mercury,
Crazy 'bout a Mercury.
I'm gonna' buy me a Mercury and cruise it up and down the road."
-Alan Jackson.

This is a 1955 Monarch Richelieu, introduced and built for the Canadian market by Ford in 1946. It sold that year for between $1,462.00 and $1,775.00. This was sold in Canada as the Monarch, and in the US, sold as a Mercury. Its hood ornament was a leaping lion. Note the radio cavity, and that massive dashboard. The ignition key is still in place also.
