SWEET LITTLE 1968 MERCURY COUGAR! Good condition, very little rust, one very small dent in the drivers-side front quarter panel (see picture). Engine runs great - tons of power and speed. I drove it last summer but not far because the BRAKES NEED WORK. Interior good: no rips, tears. Headlamp covers open and close. Sequential tail-lights work. Good tires. New battery. There is a small bit of rot on the console by the window where there is a defrost vent. It has an air-conditioner, maybe after-market or special order. I don't know if it works (never tried it).

I bought this car three years ago in New Hampshire from my aunt's estate for the then appraised value/price of $5,000. It is originally from Alabama and was stored inside all the while my aunt and uncle owned it (he was a collector). I do not have a title, I was issued a BILL OF SALE by the estate and I registered the car in New Hampshire with only that bill of sale (see registration pic). I was preparing to register it in Tennessee, where I now live, as an antique but have decided to find her a new home where she can get more TLC! I will be happy to answer any questions I can or take more pictures on request. A real eye-catcher!

FYI all of the old registrations we have on file say it is a 1967 but we have been advised that it is actually a 1968. Sorry for any confusion.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

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!

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners 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.
