 I have a 1969 mercury cougar for sale.  Its actually a 2 for 1 special if you would like it to be.  The brown xr-7 has a good title and is a complete car.  351 W engine and automatic transmission and 9" rearend.   Has its bumps and bruises here and there but the undercarriage is pretty solid.  bumpers are in good shape and overall it is a decent car.  It has power steering but doesn't have power brakes.  Sorry no tilt.  It does have the factory tach dash though.  It has not been attempted to be started in many years so i doubt it will run.  I bought it and the green car as a package deal and I just have too many projects so I thought I would try to sell them as a package deal.  If somebody just wants the xr-7 thats fine you can leave the green one for me to deal with if you don't want it but one money buys them both.  The green one is a good S-code body. (big block).  it does NOT have a title but the roof and quarters are solid and in good shape.  To me it would be a perfect rotisserie candidate. which was what i was going to do.  The brown car has a drivers rear tire that doesn't hold more than a day so if you come to trailer it you may want to take that into consideration.  I'm sure I may be forgetting something so feel free to ask me a question and I will get back to you just as soon as I can.  Both cars are as is and I will help load onto a trailer if need be but I will not be hauling for anyone as you will have to find your own shipping.  Thanks and have a good day.

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A 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.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford 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.

Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."
