The '52, '53, and '54 MERCURY'S will forever to my eyes be a classic look! 

52, 53, 54 Mercury's (2013 10 29 23 36 19 UTC)

Very, very well styled cars. Here's my 1/43 1954 Monterey convertible from Brooklin in a very attractive "Bittersweet" color:

I love these 3 years of Mercury and my favorite is the '53.

If this 1:43 scale model were in 1:24 scale, I'd be all over it like syrup on pancakes.  It is a very attractive model, but for me "size does matter", and 1:24 scale is my size of choice.
