All parts i'm going to list will be 1yr old this July 2013...Michelin Defender tires,upper/lower control arms,upper/lower ball joints,stabilizer links,struts,strut rod bushings,and all other front bushings,rear shocks and the day i had the tires mounted i had a 4 wheel alignment done too.Rear wheel independent suspension,this car drives like it's on rails.All parts were done by an ASE certified mechanic and i have all the receipts.After market stereo JVC professionally installed,with 2-10" in the trunk and an amp.It sounds great.I have the working original stereo (tape deck) if you wanted it factory again and a K&N cold air intake but like the stereo i have the original air box to restore back to factory original.This 97 is the last yr of the full size cougar,almost rust free at 16yrs old,the frame is super solid i think this car had to be originally from the south.Because i bought it in NY and we all know NY likes lots of salty winters.Well it was either garage kept and never driven, but it's truly a beautiful old 90's era car.SOHC 4.6 V-8 still has lots of life and power,runs flawlessly.If you would like any pictures of anything let me know while it's daylight so i can get them to you asap.My camera is junk so please the pictures,ehh they aren't that great.I take better care of this car than i do myself,it's properly maintained.Ask anything...

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.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

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.
