I purchased this 1976 Mercury Comet from the 2nd owner in June of 2006. The previous owner stated the miles were original and it was stored inside a barn. The motor was just rebuilt when I bought it at around 71,000 miles. It was bored .030 over. A Edelbrock Cam and Lifter Kit was used along with intake manifold, 4-barrel carburetor and valve covers, all Edelbrock as well. Side pipe exhaust, Cragar S/S wheels and Rear Air Shocks were done by previous owner as well. There was an aftermarket stereo and speakers installed by previous owner but I decided to go with the working, original stereo. There is a lot of new parts I have installed along the way since owning it. Spark Plugs, Ford Racing 9mm Plug Wires, All Belts and Hoses, Thermostat, MSD Blaster Coil, Duralast Starter, Battery Cables, K&N Air Filter, Duraspark Distributor Cap & Rotor and Fuel filter. Just changed the oil and filter. There is a few New-Old-Stock parts as well. Instrument Panel Circuit Board, Comet Locking Gas Cap, Dome Light Cover, Gear Shift Knob and Hood Prop Grommets. There was a Grant Aftermarket Steering Wheel in it when I bought it but I replaced it with a 1970's Ford Sport Steering wheel. The car runs and drives great. No leaks. All glass is in great shape. Heater and wipers work good. Headliner has a burnt spot as you can see in the picture. Other than that, great shape. The seats do need re-upholstered but just the fabric, springs are good. I have and will include a new color matched seat cover. Carpet has a spot missing on passenger side and driver's side foot pad is coming apart along the seam. All lights inside and out work. The check engine light came on after replacing the instrument panel circuit board with a NOS one, have not figured out why yet. Brakes are good. Tires do have some dry rot from sitting but lots of tread left. Paint is oxidized but shines up well. There is a spot on hood due to an egg. Did not get it cleaned off in time. There is a dent on hood in same spot as well. Driver's side quarter panel and door has some tree sap damage to paint. Dent on driver's side door by front fender. Looks like a crease. Few dents in trunk lid. There is very little rust. Quarter sized on both rear quarter panels on bottom by wheels. Rear bumper bracket has some rot on passenger side. All molding is there and I have the piece for the driver's side door, fell off. Dash pad has some cracks. Front grill has a crack by mounting tab. I have the original key for trunk and locking glove box. Clean title, in hand. Any questions, please feel free to ask. Buyer is responsible for shipping and car is sold as is. Thank you for your time.

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.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
