Sep. 09, 1967 - New two-door hardtops with sporty, sweeping roof lines highlight the Mercury for 1968. The design theme underscores Mercury's relationship to the Lincoln Continental. The fine-car family resemblance starts with a crisp new forward-thrusting die-cast grille, wrap-around bumper with functional air slots and power dome hood. The classic appearance is emphasized further by distinctive new vertical parking lamps that also serve as side marker lights at night and as turn signals designed as wrap-around elements in the front fenders. In addition to the new low crown roof in the Montclair, pictured above, and in the Monterey and Park Lane two-door hardtops, Mercury offers a more formal roof in the top-of-the-line Marquis two-door hardtop. The 16 new models go on sale in Lincoln-Mercury dealerships on September 22. Ford Motor Company's Lifeguard Design Safety Features, including energy-absorbing steering column and steering wheel, are incorporated in the new Mercury
