For your consideration a 1967 Mercury Cougar. Restoration has been on going for the past three years. Bodywork needs to be completed. I purchased the car on ebay from a private owner in California. The person I bought the car from could not verify if the mileage was correct. It has a freshly rebuilt engine and transmission with less than 500 miles @ 61429. Rebuilt starter, alternator, regulator as well as a new battery. The power steering has been overhauled including the pump, hoses and actuator. The front suspension has been completely rebuilt. It has five new tires and rims. It has baby moon hubcaps. Rebuilt water pump, aluminum radiator and transmission cooler. The headlight door actuators were also rebuilt. The exhaust system is new from the Hooker plasma coated header through the pipes and Flowmax mufflers. New Grant steering wheel. Seats, dash and console have been reupholstered. The sequential direction lights has a digital processor. I installed a '68 Cougar Tachometer in the clock position. It has new speakers front and back. The bumpers and other parts have been rechromed Yes, there is rust on the car. A lot has been done, but more is needed. The Cougar sat in a backyard (not mine) with the driver's side window open for five years. The floor pans in the back seat and trunk needs to be reconstructed. If I could keep the car, I would also replace the rear axle bearings. The car comes with new door seals and other parts ready to be installed after the restoration is complete. I am also including manuals and catalogs as source of information.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute

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.
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.
