1969 Mercury Cougar Xr7 Base 5.8l on 2040-cars
Lincoln, Nebraska, United States
Selling a 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7. I have a good clear title in my name. the car has not been driven in years and I don't know much about the engine and drivetrain except that is a 351W with air conditioning and an automatic transmission. 9" rearend. It Also has the factory Tach that a lot of cougar enthusiasts are looking for. The undercarriage of the car is very good. Most of the ones i see are rusted out and this still has solid torque boxes and frame rails. Sorry no tilt steering and the window mechanisms were all taken out when I got it. The car is a good candidate for a restoration. The rear quarters have some dents in them as you can see from the pics. Overall I think the car is in good shape. Feel free to ask some questions and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Yes this is the car that was listed a couple of weeks ago. I tried selling it as a package deal with another cougar shell butI had so many offers for this and that and that and this. I just decided to list them separately I probably should have done that the first time. Anyways, What you see is what you get. A good xr7 cougar worthy of restoration with a title. I think 1500 is a fair starting price for a complete car. thanks and I can help you load it on your trailer if I'm around or help a shipper load it but I don't have the time to haul it to you. thanks and have a good day.
Sincerely, Sean |

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible
Wed, 31 Aug 2011Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.
