1961 MERCURY MONTEREY.
I bought this car from the original owner. 292 v8. automatic. starts super easy! Was in his barn, he sold the farm and I got it out of his way for him. Put a battery on it and it started right up. Put a carb kit in it, plugs and wires. fuel filter, flushed the lines, gas tank and radiator, put new belts on it and away we went. I drove this car 300 miles to my home after we had it road worthy! Cruise in it here and there. Moving soon and can't take this monster with me. Everything on this car works. Well except for the a/c. it worked until the compressor went out this past summer. Horn sounds like a freight train! Old tube radio even picks up a.m. stations. Painted the car solid white, was red and white, didn't dig the red. Interior is good other than the drivers side of the front seat as you can see in the photos. Lowered the car 2 inches all the way around. put some new retro 17" wheels and tires on it. This car does need a muffler or something on it, just a straight pipe running back right now. IF the car sales, a 500$ deposit thru paypal is due within 24hrs. No exceptions. Even if you are coming with cash 2 days later, the deposit is still due! |

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.

Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
