The Turnpike Cruiser was produced in two body styles: a two-door and four-door hardtop were offered. Later in the model year an open car named Convertible Cruiser was added to this series. From the beginning it was created only to be used as the official pace car of the 1957 Indianapolis 500, but on January 7, 1957 it was announced that the Convertible Cruiser would be available as a production model as well. All Convertible Cruisers had a continental tire kit and were painted yellow (Sun Glitter), similar to the original pace cars. In addition to its unique features, the car was further differentiated from other Mercury models by a gold anodized trim strip in the car's rear fin.
This beautiful Mercury Turnpike Convertible Cruiser proves all of these years later, that these cars were unappreciated in their day, ahead of their time, and will be given their proper place as valuable classics.
