Richard Zocchi’s 1954 Mercury FOR SALE

80’s MILE STONE CUSTOM ON EBAY

Bill Reasoner’s Classic Auto Body in Walnut Creek created this wonderful padded topped 1954 Mercury for Richard Zocchi in the early 1980’s. It was a big hit then, influenced a lot of people and still looks amazing today.

I saw photos of Richard’s 1954 Mercury in the Hot Rod magazing Custom Cars Annual in 1983… and I was extremely impressed with the beauty of this car.
It was just finished and at its most beautiful with no pin striping or the later addition of the light blue scallops.

This is how Richard’s 1954 Mercury look in the early 1980’s when it was just finished.

Update  October 1, 2013: The car’s ebay auction has ended at four bids. No Sale.

One more early photo, although now there has been some pin-striping added already.

This is how Richard’s Mercury looks now. Still a stunning custom after all these years.
