Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Batman used that Merc in quite a few episodes. Several other notable Fords appeared in the various episodes including this one.

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

I happened to catch this one today, "A Hat Full Of Rain", 1957. It features numerous great views of my favourite flathead powered 52 Mercury.

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

This old Albert Hitchcock film turned out to have some great views of a jailbar pickup and a 51 Merc woody wagon. Driving and parked. Both covered in mud at times and the woody wagon came to a sad...

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Man In The Dark (1953). Just scanning it tonight and several interesting Fords including a car chase with a 47 and 50 Ford. Brief view of a 52 Lincoln and a couple of really good shots of a 52...

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Lost Lonely And Vicious (1958). Spotted a 52 and 53 Mercury in the first 2 minutes of this movie. More to come I am sure.

53 Mercury convertible at the 4:30 mark. Plenty more Fords to see in this 1954 movie. (Pushover)

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Latest that caught my eye was "Violent Saturday". Although it won't be a flathead, there is a nice 54 Mercury that comes to a sad ending late in the show. The Ford truck was unharmed though.

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Seems most of the ads in magazines of the day showed white wall tires but yes, the extra cost might have steered more buyers to the plain black wall option. Interesting to notice in this photo that...

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

Yes, TCM is one of the few channels I'd never give up. Always enjoy the old autos that show up in the movies. Like this shoebox Ford from "The Day The Earth Stood Still".

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

I don't recall noticing at the time but apparently in the early episodes of "The Mod Squad" series from the late 1960s there was a 1950 Mercury woody wagon. They wrecked it eventually.

Re: V-8 Fords on Film

That link appears to have been deleted. Here is another one that shows the Merc. Seems to me Desi traded in a pretty nice 39 or 40 Ford on the Merc when the salesman convinced him the old car would...
