1953 Mercury Monarch & 1975 GMC Sierra Grande 3500




 "I was pulling into this filling station at Cluny, Alberta on my drive over to Ponteix and here was this late 50's Mercury. Nothing fancy but a fine, handsome sled nevertheless. It looked like the restoration was decades old but she just keeps purring along. I took these shots from the driver's seat, otherwise I would have missed it. (Ed. note: Autoliterate found another Monarch in Vancouver last year. And a Mercury M-3 truck in Nova Scotia.)

"The super-clean diesel was at a red light, I got the shot from 6 feet away. The sound of the "stack" was muy macho. Later, AE"
