Not sure what it is lately with me and F -series trucks. Picked up a Mercury M-100 today.

Thats COOL!
I feel kinda dumb... I had no idea there was such a thing as a Merc Truck!!???(in ΓÇÿ67)

I really like the dash/tailgate, IΓÇÖve also never seen or heard of a mercury truck any ideas on how name were made?

They were made from '46 - '68 and only sold in Canada. I got a Marti Report on it and it shows it as an F100 produced in Ontario Canada, one of the last options is "Mercury truck conversion".

I have no idea how many where made, I will probably get the better Marti report at some point and it will say how many had the option. The VIN's are actually intermixed with regular Ford F-100 VIN's. These were just F-100's re-badged as Mercury's and sold in Canada. This one happens to be pretty complete and the interior is original paint,, unfortunately someone rattle can primered the exterior.

That brings back memories my dad had one.

Finally been taking the time to get this running and driving. After sitting for nearly a year in my garage took her around the block under her own power yesterday. I have no idea how long it was sitting before I grabbed it, the last sticker on it was from 2000. Now to finish fixing the turn signal/ 4 ways and get it inspected so I can get the title straightened out.

Nice Canuck truck!

Glad youΓÇÖre getting her running!!!
Saw this on FB a week or so ago and actually thought about your Merc...

I have seen that one and really like it, wish this one was a 4x4. As soon as I get the inspection done and get titled looking to do a restoration with a couple upgrades. This one is supposed to be that same yellow but two tone with Wimbledon white.

Got the Mercury inspected to start the title process, the good news is it came back clean and didn't get impounded. The bad news is I had a turn signal that seems to have a short somewhere and doesn't work so it was considered not roadworthy. That being said I have to go through bonding for a title and the rebuilder's title process. I was curious about the production numbers so I got my Marti report upgraded. According to Marti there were 8653 Mercury M100's for 1967, that is right around 3.7% of the total F100 production for the year. Also found out it was originally sold in Assiniboia, SK, Cananda which is a little over 1000 miles north of here.
