Here's your chance to own a SUPER nice restorable 1971 Cougar.
The Car runs and drives with no issues, other than a stuck choke when starting. Strong 351C-2V engine and c-6 tranny. The car has a small 2" rust hole in passenger side floor, other floors great. Carpet and interior in good condition. Headliner is perfect. No radio. Clock does not work. A/c missing belt. Never tried it. All the chrome is in good condition and intact. Small crack on dash pad. Some small rust bubbles in front of hood and door drop offs. The down side to this car is it needs a roof reskin and the vinyl top replaced. Very rusty under top. Bought the car and have no time to do it. Willing to sell for what we have in to it, so the buy it now price is the bottom line. No trades wanted. Have clean title and receipts since new in FL. I have the build sheet, the window sticker, and all repairs since new. Third owner. Have driven the car to Daytona and back with no issues. Ran great. We are only offering this car for sale because we own (4) Cougars, and its just one too many, and this one needs the roof reskin. We bought two cars after this, and they need little work. This one needs a loving home to someone who can do the top and minimal things she needs. It has an exhaust leak on the right front manifold where it meets the collector, and have not repaired it for fear of breaking the bolt, so it sounds a slight thump thump thump on that side. This is truly a great car in an unusual original color. Have Marti report. Reskin the top and you have a great car with very little other work to do. The rear seat plastic side panels have some sun rot deterioration on them shown in photos. Have not found replacements for them. I have new seat backs to be installed. The front grille and rear tail lights just restored and repainted. The rear valance is not factory. There is a walk around video I can email to you. Any questions, call Ray at 239-823-3291 The car is in Venus, Florida and can be shown with advance notice. The car is for sale locally, and reserve the right to cancel the auction early if sold locally. $500.00 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end and payment in full and cleared funds before title is exchanged. Shipment is buyers responsibility, and sellers can assist with shipper suggestions. The car is being sold "as is-where is" with no warrantee, expressed or implied. All sales are final. |

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls
Tue, 04 Nov 2014
Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
