1969 MERCURY COUGAR ELIMINATOR. BEFORE I GIVE THE DETAILS THIS IS NOT A NUMBERS MATCHING CAR NOR DID THIS CAR COME FROM THE FACTORY WITH THIS ENGINE. IT ORGINIALLY CAME WITH A 351 AND FMX TRANSMISSION. NOW FOR THE DETAILS, HAS FRESHLY REBUILT 428 ENGINE FROM A LOCAL MACHINE SHOP WITH ANEW ELEBROCK CARB, HOOKER HEADERS, EARLY 1970'S ALUMUNIUM ELEBROCK STREET PERFORMER 890 MANIFOLD. NEW STARTER,REGULATOR, BATTERY, REBUILT RADIATOR. FROM THE EARLY 1970'S A OVAL COUGAR AIR CLEANER ( NOT A REPRO ). AUTO C-6 TRANSMISSION, NEW DRIVELINE, NEW FRONT COIL SPRINGS, NEW FRONT DISC ROTORS AND BEARINGS. WHEELS ARE FROM THE LATE 1960'S EARLY 1970'S BUT ARE NOT ORGINIAL TO CAR. HAS BIAS PLY TIRES. RECHROMED FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS, TAILIGHT HOUSINGS AND ALL TRIM EXCEPT FOR FRONT AND BACK WINDOW TRIM. WINDOWS ARE ORGINIAL WITH SOME SCRATCHES, BUT NOT BAD. NEW DOOR HANDLES AND ROCKER TRIM. NEW BRAKE LINES AND FUEL LINES, NEW FUEL TANK. INTERIOR HAS NEW UPHOLSTERED FRONT SEATS, REAR SEATS, DOOR PANELS AND QUARTER PANELS WERE DYED BLACK. WAS ORGINIALLY BLUE. NEW CARPET PACKAGE TRAY AND SAIL PANELS. ALL GAUGES WORK. NEW EXHAUST FROM ENGINE BACK. THE PAINT IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH A FEW CHIPS AND SCRATCHES. I HAVE A KEVIN MARTI REPORT AND BUILD SHEET ALSO. YOU MAY NOTICE THAT IT DOSEN'T HAVE A CLOCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THAT PANEL HAD SURFACE RUST SO BAD THAT I COULDN'T SAVE SO I REPLACED WITH A STANDARD PANEL AND HAD IT COVERED. AND YOU MAY ASK ABOUT THE SIDE STRIPES, I MADE IT TO MY LIKEING AND DID NOT PUT THE STRIPES DOWN THE SIDE AND PUT THE ELIMINATOR AND 428 ON THE FENDERS.

HISTORY OF THE CAR GOES LIKE THIS:

BOUGHT CAR ON EBAY, TAKING THE OWNERS WORD FOR IT AS A RUST FREE CAR. WHEN IT ARRIVED I INSPECTED IT THE FLOORPAN WAS COMPLETELY GONE, ALL ENGINE APRONS RUSTED, FRONT PASSINGER DOOR RUSTED ON BOTTOM, FRONT FENDERS NEEDED REPAIR AND REAR QUARTERS NEEDED ATTENTION.

HAD A PROFESSIONAL BODY SHOP REPLACE AND FIX ALL THE RUST.

I HAD A 1 PEICE FLOORPAN INSTALLED, FOUND 2 1969 FRONT FENDERS TO USE AND FIXED THE REAR QUARTERS, LOCATED A 1969 PASS.DOOR AND INSTALLED, REPLACED ALL ENGINE APRONS.

AS ALOT OF YOU KNOW WHEN RESTORING THESE KINDS OF CARS YOU CAN QUICKLY GET MORE MONEY INTO IT THAN IT IS WORTH.

SO, TO STOP THE BLEEDING THERE ARE STILL A FEW THINGS THAT THE NEW OWNER WILL NEED TO ADDRESS:

THE DRIVER DOOR MIRROR WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THE CABLES ARE BROKEN

THE RIM STYLE STEERING WHEEL HORN WILL NEED TO BE FIXED

THE BACKUP LIGHTS AREN'T WORKING

AND THE RADIO IS THERE BUT DOESN'T WORK.

I HAVE PUT ON A FAIR RESERVE, BUT I'M WILLING TO TAKE A 1967/8 MUSTANG FASTBACK ON TRADE. PLEASE NO RUST BUCKETS.

AS WITH MOST SALES AS IS WHERE IS.

IF YOU WANT ANY PICTURES OF A CERTAIN SPOT OR SIDE LET ME KNOW AND I'LL TRY TO GET THEM TO YOU.

THANKS

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
