Mercury just couldn't win with the public, but it was not for lack of trying. They substantially updated their full-size models every year, and their standard 390 c.i. V-8 was quite powerful. Yet in 1964 Mercury sold just over 100,000 full-size cars while Chevrolet sold 1.6 million.
Mercury offered three cars in its full-size lineup, the Monterey, the Montclair and the Park Lane. All three lines were available in two different body styles. The "regular" car was called Marauder, while the Breezeway had a electric rear-window. Mercury offered at least one Breezeway model every year from 1957 to 1965.
