Good Bye Mercury


Earlier this week, the Ford Motor Company announced that it has decided to end the Mercury Division in order to focus their attention towards building the Lincoln brand.

My attachment to Mercury stems from growing up around a bunch of different Mercury vehicles.  Although the cars were mainly slightly modified Fords with a bit more luxury added, they stood out from the average run in the mill Ford.

The photo above is actually a gas cap from one of the Mercury's.  This thing is really a piece of art that we will never see again on automobiles.  Mercury's passing is just another sign of change.... good or bad.
