Is it a stick shift or automatic? If an automatic, use a 55 or 56 Ford 4bbl linkage for an automatic. Not sure that the Merc manifold has all the right holes but it should. The 54 Merc linkage should fit too.

Thanks, Paul...I will re-post this in the correct forum. I am trying to find a 54 Merc linkage and/or a 56 Ford linkage as well. Wish me luck!
