1973 Mercury Cougar with the Eliminator Package (cloned).  Has the most desirable color in factory "burnt orange".  Screams 1970's.  Clone Eliminator package in black.  69000 original miles.  Excellent condition overall.  A very nice driver.  Original 351 Cleveland .  Recent Edelbrock carb.  Dual exhaust added at one point.  Very loud and proud.  The car was repainted the original factory color at one point, a decent paint job.  Still bright but with minor hazing in a couple of places.  Excellent original top with no snags or tears.  This car was and is not a rusty car anywhere.  The interior is overall excellent, only needing a drivers door panel to eliminate a five inch crack and a one inch crack.  Dash is perfect.  Original radio not in car.  I have extra material for the interior.  Has AC, appears to work but not ice cold.  Needs nothing but detailed.  Seen recently by a mechanic who works on vintage cars and he was impressed with how clean underneath the car has remained.  Has new master cylinder and new aluminum radiator.  If you are picky you may want to put new wheels on it as they are pitted in some places and not original to the car.  Tires are matching Kellys all the way around.  Open to partial trade for a snowmobile, snowmobile trailer or celebrity music memorabilia.  This car has been used in a couple films and a new CMT TV series.  A very solid car.  You can call me at 615 504 1512 for walk around details.

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 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.

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.
