Nice pairing! You're making it difficult. I'll take the Merc.

OH Man! Now this is a tough one! I like them both. Guess I'll give the nod to the Mercury. Always liked the color 'band' beneath the windows.

The Mercury, but if the Ford had gone up one step to the Crown Victoria. . .

As these two were instrumental in my early enthusiasm for US cars..

via the old Revell 1:32 kits I'd have to take both. The Ford was my first kit and I always had a fascination for the headlight design on the Mercury. We never had a design like that in the UK.
