Mercury Park Lane

The Park Lane wis introduced in 1958 an wis applied tae Mercury's premium automobile line. In 1960, the Park Lane name wis dropt for the comin 1961 model year as Mercury focused its production efforts on the lower-end Monterey an Meteor 800 models. The name wis reinstatit in 1964 as Mercury again attemptit tae retrench its models in the price gap atween Ford an Lincoln.  Park Lanes wur available wi the Marauder package (as wur aw full-size '64 Mercurys) which featured the "slantback" ruif designs uised on the popular full-size Ford line.
