  • Hi


    This may be a "long shot", but I have a question..:
    - I have had a 1953 Mercury Monterey for 7 years, and I love that car. Here the other day I met a man who said : "Hey, that`s the old John Wayne car". He told me that the father of a friend of him took the car in to Norway in 1986, and said that John Wayne bought the car new. And he was 100% sure about that. - But I cannot tell this to people without knowing...


    - So, - is this possible..? Does anybody know if John Wayne even had a 1953 Mercury...? (- And if so, does it excist any pictures of that...?)
    I would really appreciate to know if that can be true... The car would be even more costly to me if it is so. :thumbup:


    Thank you.
