Very solid and original 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente convertible with the highly-desirable K-code 289 4v high performance engine.  The car runs and drives very well, and features power steering and a power top.  The 3-speed Merc-O-Matic automatic transmission is in proper working order, and the original heavy-duty 9" rear end is in place.


Original Carnival Red on two-tone red & black bucket seat/console K-code convertible... doesn't get much better.  The car comes with lots of new parts including a white convertible top, red carpet kit, red arm rests, red seat belts, door sill plates, window felts and rubbers, dash woodgrain kit, weatherstripping kit, convertible top bolt/fastener kit, heater kit, top well liner, and more.  It also comes with a split-back bench seat and new red upholstery kit if you want more seating up front.  The car includes original front bucket seats, console, and rear seat as well.  The door panels and rear interior trim panels are all present.  

The body is reasonably straight with no evidence of accidents.  No major rust issues, just some minor bubbling in a few areas down low.  Grill and stainless trim is nice all around.  Bumpers are straight and shiny.  Glass is good, all windows work.

Power top operates perfectly.  All the convertible-specific trim and parts are present.

This is a car you can get in and drive as-is, the mechanicals are strong.  Paint is old, but still has some shine to it.  Priced to sell at $6,500.00.

You may call me directly at 360-936-9257 to discuss payment, shipping, etc.

While every effort is being made to describe the vehicle accurately, it is a 49-year-old classic car and being sold as-is, without warranty or guaranty expressed, written, or implied.  Shipping is the full responsibility of the buyer; I will make myself and the vehicle available for pickup and loading.  Please be prepared to make payment in full within 3 days of auction's end via bank wire transfer or certified major bank cashier's check *(must verify check and wait for funds to clear before shipping vehicle).

Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute

Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
