I was going thru years of envelopes of saved automotive clippings today and found one ad that said, "50 Mercury with removable post, 1 of 57". Nothing more about it being a custom Merc so I wondered it was some factory special.

I'd forgotten the clipping and have never heard of a car like this since other than some customs.

Anyone hear of something like this from the factory?
 
Posts get removed for customizing all the time (if they are refering to body pillars) but I am aware of no post that is removable on stock body cars of the 49 to 51 era. It may have been a try at making a hard top out of a B-pillar car.
