Mercury Monterey

The Monterey was a series of full size Mercury cars built from 1950 to 1974, named for Monterey Bay. Over 22 years of production it served as the flagship, mid range and entry level of the Mercury range, and it was the only Mercury nameplate in continuous production through the 1960s. Mercury discontinued it after 1974, leaving the Marquis and Colony Park, and revived the name in 2004 for a minivan.
