1964 Mercury Marauder Park Lane 4 door Hardtop. This car runs and drives but has not been on the road for at least 5 years. The tires are just rollers. All the glass is good. All the lights, gauges, wipers, blower motor ect all work. The horn does not. I bought this car a few years ago as a parts car for a 2 dr ht. That car has sold so I no longer need this car. The head liner has come unstitched and is hanging down.This car came with a power bench seat but I do not have it. This is a really good looking car underneath. No visible rust under the car. The lower quarters will need some work as will the dog leg. The motor has been redone recently. To what extent I do not know for sure. I know the cam has been replaced and the heads redone. The would make a nice builder or a great parts car. I do not have the trunk key. I have a good spare trunk lid. The brakes stop the car but it has been sitting along time so I would not consider it road worthy. I have driven it up and down my road a few times in the last couple of days and it drives alright except for an exhaust leak. I can help with shipping. I am 60 miles south of I10  in south west Texas. I can meet you at the interstate. Or you can pick it up here, or at a place I have by Abilene Tx. I have a trip to Ms in a few weeks and if you are on the way I can drop it off. Any questions cal 214 226 3119 or e mail. If this car does not meet reserve i will part it out.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

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.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
