1965 Mercury Park Lane Marauder With Hipo 390 on 2040-cars
Camano Island, Washington, United States
|
1965 Mercury Park Lane Marauder with a HIPo 390 and 3-speed Merc-o-Matic transmission. See video http://youtu.be/baMk45Dfj4I. Body work has been completed and primed. It has been in climate controlled storage since work was completed. The body is straight. This car has been in the family since 2001. The engine runs VERY strong! Custom tuned Edelbrock carburetor and 2 1/2 inch exhaust. The transmission slips somewhat in reverse. Interior is good: good floor panels, needs carpet, some chrome needs work, bucket seats (driver’s seat seams are coming apart,) rear bench, and door panels are in good repair. (A previous owner sprayed black vinyl paint over the cream colored vinyl.) Power windows, manual choke, no A/C, factory tachometer, etc. I have EVERY trim piece except passenger rear post interior light cover, one chrome lock knob cover, and rear speaker. This is incredible since body parts can prove to be near impossible to find. This is a very special car and I regret having to get rid of it but baby #1 on his way! Please feel free to ask any questions. DELIVERY NOT AVAILABLE. Vehicle located on Camano Island WA, 98282 |

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.
Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute
Thu, 24 Feb 2011Bugatti 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.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
