1965 Mercury Comet Cylone Caliente on 2040-cars
Cape Coral, Florida, United States
|
a neat old unusual car hard to find REAL Cyclone model. bought from an owner since the 60's and left mostly un touched, has the usual rust issues, but reserved to mostly the rear lower quarters and trunk area. other areas are minor in my opinion! I have a rear section and trunk included that go with the buyer, the trim seems to be in boxes, not sure if all there? the seats and console, and all included with sale. no radio! it has a 289 with headers and an aftermarket 4 barrel. also an excel dual point distributor and coil. I did a compression check on the motor and it was high on all cylinders, 170 lbs +. I got the motor to start and run on a electric fuel pump and gas can. no knocks or noises. it has a ratchet floor shifter that is in neutral and I can not make it move to drive, so I did not move the car under it's own power. will try again if requested. I will have tires that hold air on it for shipping. the car needs total restoration! have clear Florida title. a personal inspection from buyer before sale is accepted. I bought the car with intensions of making a pro street car but it is too complete and original for that, so I have changed my intentions! this is a great find for the purist, and color combo. was unable to down load pictures, not sure why?? email me for pictures and I will also try to post pictures in the future. have several pictures to send you if desired!

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
