Ha! That's my car! '63 Merc Meteor S33 2 dr hardtop. Her name is Ruby. I have the bumper in the garage. I'm looking for a good plater in Oregon-straighten and triple plate chromer...otherwise I have to ship to LA. This car has been a daily driver for me for 15 years. Next up: new floor pans and carpet.
Growing up I can remember passing this car on my way to and from school and I always admired this old Mercury, but now that I am a little bit older I can really appreciate what an amazing and beautiful car this is! I haven't seen the car in a matter of months (maybe over a year or more) but this '63 Mercury has been, and always will be one of the coolest cars to ever cruise the streets of NE Portland!
Best of OPC.

Damn, shame about the front bumper.
Does that say '1988'? Is it not a '62 or a '63?
Man what a crazy typo, thanks Don. I can't believe we didn't catch it sooner, especially considering I have the photos labeled as 1963.
The shape of those taillights is pretty great.

Thx
Just the other day I was psyched to pass this car for the first time in many months.
As it crept into view I smiled and thought to myself, "Do we have a front bumper? Do we have a bumper? No! Bah."
Still a joy to see parked!
Bumper is on and the car looks great! Passed it a few times recently.
