Location:

Hendersonville, Tennessee, United States

Hendersonville, Tennessee, United States

This unique vehicle started as a 95' Mercury Cougar. It has an Easyrod 49'Ford conversion. It's a love-it or hate-it thing.
I lost interested in this project. Wife says car has to go. It doesn't need much to get finished. Mainly cosmetically issues and TLC.
The hasn't been driven a lot in the last years. But it starts right up. No engine or tranny leaks. 
For longer trips I would recommend to go completely thru the car.

- New lowered springs and new shocks.

- Cadillac tail lights

- ca. 6 layers of Rustoleum Flat Black, needs clear coat or buffing, or leave as is

- 81900 miles

- Hillborn style hood scoop, in the moment only decorative. Was planning on routing a cold air intake thru the scoop.
  Air filters etc. come with it.

- Dual Flowmaster exhaust. Nice grumbling sound, but not too aggressive

- Frenched license plat

- All power functions working

- Tires are in good condition

- Coker whitewall tires on Chrome wheels with some surface rust

- Peep mirors

- DVD stereo

- No heater (core is leaking) and A/C (compressor o.k., solenoid bad)

- New alternator last year

- No horn

- Battery might need to be replaced

- No rust but some cracks in the fiberglass

- Head liner crinkled

- VinCheck-Report available,no problems reported

The car is located in Hendersonville, TN. Currently no registration.

I strongly recommend to see the car in person before bidding.

I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time if car gets sold locally.

Any question, let me know.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
