You are bidding on a nice 1965 comet cyclone. It has been in storage for the last 10 years or so. My brother and I purchased it with plans of restoring it but have not been able to do so, therefore we have decided to sell it so someone can get the enjoyment out of it. This is a very good example of a restore while you can use it as well. The passenger front floor has been replaced. Other than that the car is very solid the frame rails are good as well as you can see in the pics. Also you can see the car was undercoated very well at a much earlier date which has very much done its job. The car has a 289 v8 not sure if it is a #s matching and the trans has been replaced with a c4 transmission the motor has shorty headers and was never adapted to reach the exhaust.The engine does run but probably needs a few things buttoned up on it such as the radiator is out of the car but we do have one that will be included in the sale. the paint on the car is really nice and would look even better with a good cleaning and a wax job. As you can see in the pics the hood and deck lid was louvered with was done prior to us purchasing it but it is a nice job. The original front seats have been replaced at some point with what you see. the tires and rims you see in the pics have been replaced with newer white wall tires on steel rims but we do still have the rims shown if buyer is interested. This comet cyclone came with the four barrel option but is not a hipo car. The original vin is still stamped in the engine compartment and all of the original engine panels in place. Overall we purchased this car because it is such a good candidate for a great finished product, just dont have the time. We have this car priced  right for a quick sale, dont miss out. A non refundable deposit of $500.00 will be due within 48 hours of auctions end via paypal and the balance  must be p[aid in cash or certified check within 10 days of auctions end. the car and title will be released after check has cleared. You are welcome to come inspect the car in person. I will be happy to answer any questions. Thanks for looking Good luck.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
