Seattle, Washington, United States

I have a rare 1964 Mercury cyclone for sale with the stock 289 K code engine , bucket seats ,center console, power steering,cyclone tachometer. This is a numbers matching car with original engine and matching Vin Numbers! This car still has the original black plates from California that shows it has been in the same family most of it's life and in California all it's life. This car is very solid with no rust on the quarters .floor pans, trunk doors, underneath the doors or around the gas tank. This cyclone is still all original with the Ford factory installed 289 k code engine that means it is a 289 engine with a factory installed 4 barrel manifold and 4 barrel carb. Nothing has been modified or changed it still has the original drive train, engine, and rear end. It still has the original black bucket seat interior color . The exterior color was originally twilight turquoise with a black interior. So a black interior car with a turquoise exterior is a stunning and beautiful combo. The car also has power steering and a dual exhaust for more power! All the chrome is there , all the emblems are there nothing is missing or broken or missing, The bumpers are still good and bright not all bent up or rusty, The rocker moldings and wheel lip moldings are all there nothing is bent up or missing. The cyclone door badges are there as well as the checkered flags and cyclone badges. The car still has the original cyclone tachometer If your looking for an all stock original unmodified true 1964 cyclone, with an easy restoration then this is it. You can drive it as you work on it! The car had been sitting in dry storage for many years so you would need to give it a complete tune up job, and fluid change. The original owner installed a new turn signal switch and did not hook up all the wires as well as the dash wires,so you will need to do that. The engine sounds strong and does not knock, the power steering is working great and does not drip, The tranny does not leak nor slip out of gear. The only work I have done after getting it from the original owners in dry storage was put on a new master cyclinder so the brakes work. I also had to by pass the ignition switch since the original owner did not install the dash wires or turn signal switch. Other than those minor things it is an easy restoration project since it is a solid rust free car with the original black plates from california. You can paint the car and make it a show piece or drive it like it is, it still turns heads wherever she goes! I have many more pics to send so please email me or call me for more info 206 817 8387 Thanks and good luck bidding!

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.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford 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.
