I see a rear sidemarker. Where's the front sidemarker? |

Front indicator is part of the sidemarker. Link to "oldcarbrochures.com" |

Clearly has B-pillars, so not a Hardtop. |

I disagree. The "pillar" is too small. I think that's a 4-door hardtop and we are seeing a reflection that looks like a "B" pillar. For contrast, I present this photo of a true sedan: ![[Image: 1968-mercury-monterey.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/8289/1968-mercury-monterey.jpg) Note how thick the combination of window frames and "B" pillar is then compare to the subject photo. -- Last edit: 2022-08-23 20:48:05 |

Sorry, but I cannot back you up on this. The reason you think the B-pillar is so thin is that you're only seeing body-colored middle part of the pillar and not the chromed door window frames which are hidden from view due to the darkness. Notice the thick shadow next to the pillar - no wait, it is the pillar. The driver's side pillar is also very prominent, furthering my theory. Here's a hardtop, the door window frame is physically incapable of conjuring up that amount of shadow: ![[Image: 1968-mercury-monterey.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/1968-mercury-monterey.jpg) Brightening up the image shows the door window frames clear as day: ![[Image: i001693533.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/i001693533.jpg) Bonus observation, the hardtop has rounded roof corners by the C-pillar, while those of the sedan are angular, like the subject car. Compare: ![[Image: 1968-mercury-monterey.1.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/1968-mercury-monterey.1.jpg) ![[Image: mercury-monterey-4-door-sedan-side-wheels-wings-2019-1-786763.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/4290/mercury-monterey-4-door-sedan-side-wheels-wings-2019-1-786763.jpg) |

Thanks for the front sidemarker info. |

The lightened photo helped. I'll concede the point to you. |
