1969 Mercury Montego Fully Restored

This Blown Mercury Is A Far Cry From Grandpa's Grocery-GetterThe year was 1986. Doug Freyta was cruising his neighborhood of Englewood, a suburb of Colorado renowned for its mullets. While chances are Doug's hair was party in the back and business on top, his search for a unique Ford to build was nothing to mock. "I am a Ford guy, but I was tired of the typical Mustangs and Fairlanes that everyone had," said Doug. "One day I spotted a Mercury Montego for sale. I went to the house to inquire about the car, but they wanted $3,000. At the time I felt that was a lot of money." The journey from stock to hard rock is one that takes place over 25 years. But first a little history about this rare bird named after Montego Bay, Jamaica, is in order.
