1984 Mercury Capri 5.0l Fox Body on 2040-cars

Year:1984 Mileage:160000
Location:

Portland, Oregon, United States

Portland, Oregon, United States

1984 Mercury Capri 5.0 (302) V8 5 speed manual transmission. I'm selling the car as I just cannot justify registering and insuring it another year when I rarely use it. The car runs and drives very well. 

Body - Paint is faded. The front valance is cracked in a few places. Some plastic trim around the car is also cracked. Body is strait though. 

Engine - Runs and drives great. There is a newer aftermarket carb with a manual choke. Recent camshaft replacement /w stock style cam.

Interior - Sun faded seats and carpet. Dash is cracked. Missing all but 1 speaker from the sound system. Heater works great

Powertrain/oily bits - Newer clutch and transmission re-seal. Front suspension is in decent shape, rear suspension could use some new bushings. Tires have lots of life left on them. Tried to run it though emission before selling but it failed for co emissions, Might need a tune-up 

I purchased this car a while back to have something fun to drive on the weekends. My job has since changed and I am now traveling a lot. The Oregon registration is due at the end of the month and I can no longer justify owning it. My loss, your gain. 

If you have any questions or need additional pictures please let me know.
This car is sold as-is

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
