'66 Mercury I think
Think you got it!
Montclair?
Almost thinking the back window went down. Not sure if it was power or manual.
They were usually power. We called them 'turnpike cruisers'.
Mercury. don't know what year, somewhere in the 60's
The one my dad's boss had; the back window was a power window.
buddy had something similar years ago... the center section of the window was power and there was a smaller fixed glass section on each side
My parents had a 57 Turnpike Cruiser. It’s the first car I can remember them having. It was red and white with the long fender skirts. It had a push button tranny too. I remember traveling south to our mamaws house many nights laying in the rear window shelf area staring at the stars, me and my younger sister would take turns. Thanks Kenny for mentioning the TC it sparked some good memories.
Turnpike Cruisers had the big long fender skirts. That is where the after market term "Cruiser Skirts" came from. Had them on my 50 ford 2 dr.
I had to google this car! Here is some wiki info about the history of this series of Mercs.

If you keep scrolling down, there is more about 1964-1968. There were Breezeway's in 1963 also. The Montclair also had the roll down rear window and maybe other models too. That link basically just covers the Park Lane version.
