1969 Mercury Cougar Convertible 5.8l on 2040-cars
Youngstown, Ohio, United States
|
This is a numbers matching 1969 Mercury Cougar Convertible with a 351 W 2 valve carburetor. The passenger side floors have been redone and much exterior body work has been done as well. The driver side floor needs replaced, but included in the selling price are brand new floor sheet metal (Ford price sticker still intact). The driver side inner rocker panel will need replaced, but a new rocker panel (also with the price sticker remaining) is additionally included with sale. All of the interior is included and is in good shape. Both passenger and driver bucket seats have a tear in the sitting portion which can easily be reupholstered. The only interior piece missing is the carpet and its corresponding insulation. It does not have an exhaust at all (no headers/exhaust manifolds, pipes, or mufflers). The engine was winterized when stored 13 years ago. It ran before it was winterized; however, I am not sure if it will still run. The grill on the passenger side has a rung missing out of it; however, included in the selling is an extra passenger side grill piece that is in perfect condition. The driver's side grill is perfectly in tact. There is an additional door that comes with the car as well as many more additional parts. If you have any questions call me at (330) 301-9581.
Please note that the buyer is responsible for all shipping/arranging for pick-up. Full payment is expected upon pick up within the time allotted week as per ebay's policies. |

Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
