1957 Mercury Voyager

Offered by Mecum | Houston, Texas | April 5, 2013

The 1950s were a great time for American station wagons and American cars in general. Chevrolet Nomads are very popular and show up everywhere. You don’t see Mercury Voyager’s all that often. Or ever.

The model was introduced as Mercury’s mid-priced, full-sized wagon for 1957. There was a cheaper alternative and one more expensive. It was available in a two-door and a four-door. This car features a 6.0-liter V8 making 290 horsepower.

Only 2,283 two-door Voyagers were made in 1957, so this car is quite rare. It has spent a long time in a car museum and is entirely original – right down to the paint. It’s listed as in “As-New” condition and looks the part. This is a $20,000-$30,000 car. Click here for more info and here for the rest of Mecum’s Houston lineup.
