The Mercury model line underwent a ground up redesign for 1959, as the Montclair expanded to a 126 inch wheelbase. After the cancellation of the Edsel Corsair and Edsel Citation, which shared bodies with Mercury, the division used a body and chassis exclusive to it for the first time since 1940. For 1960 Mercury adopted more restrained styling, nearly removing the tailfins. Its model years run from 1959 to 1960.
