Ad says 1986 model, but it clearly isn't. I'm guessing 1981 based on the mirrors and wheel covers. $1995. http://portland.craigslist.org/grg/cto/4359665829.html
I don't think it's a 1981. Didn't the '81 still have the fake louvers on the fenders? They were still there on the 80's..... Maybe a '82 or '83?
Hey, Krash. All I can find for stock photos show the louvers on the Mercury front fenders were 1979-80 only - the same years as the flush mounted rearview mirrors! The others started 1981-82 like the CP for sale! :2_thumbs_up_-_anima
'83-'85 The front bumper, grille and radio. Sun roof is interesting though. Wonder how an aftermarket one fits, with the creases in the roof/
