Background

The Mercury S-55 is a car that was marketed by Mercury from the 1962 to 1963 model years and again from 1966 to 1967. The full-size version of the Mercury "S" (Special) range, the S-55 was a performance-oriented variant of the Mercury Monterey, serving as a divisional counterpart of the Ford Galaxie 500XL. Offered only as a two-door hardtop and convertible, the S-55 was marketed as an alternative to the Chrysler 300 "letter series".
