Keith,,thanks for posting the pics. Some great rides there.
Tell me about the Mercury stepside. Got any pics of the front ? Never knew Mercury made a pickup. Is that a Canadian only production or what or have I just missed out on a piece of history sometime during my life.

Not from this show but i am sure that I have a pic or two of it from another show. I will see if I can find the pics for you. As to the Canadian angle I am not sure, its doubtful we ever had anything you folks couldn't get but I suppose its a possibility.

Thanks for all the other comments guys, glad you enjoyed the pics :supz:

Here it is from another couple shows last year Larry...

From the Mercury Pickup website, they were built in Canada from 1946 to 1968. I never knew that either!

Awesome pics as usual Keith. Thanks! :supz:
