No reserve.  $500 deposit due right after the auction ends.  No zero rated bidders.  This is a very original 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7.  Factory original 351ci engine and FMX automatic transmission with 3.00 rear axle.  Factory Air Conditioning and all of the components are in place.  The original carb was rebuilt earlier this year.  It starts up good, runs smoothly and idles good.  The Bright Blue (code 6) body has all the original panels and it has never been painted, plus it is very straight and clean overall as shown.  The transmission shifts into the gears as it should with no known issues.  The power brakes stop fine.  This has not been on the road in a couple years.  It has been lot driven but that is it.  Also I have not cleaned out the gas tank so I have it running off fresh fuel under the hood.  The electronics work, as do the lights.  The headlight doors close when you start it and slowly open awhile after turning it off. 

I was going to have this XR7 painted but I have been too busy with other things.  The interior is original and in place.  Trunk is solid.  The floors are very clean and solid.  I have a clean pink California title with it.  No accidents ever and all the panels are completely original.  This is for NON California residents only, otherwise a CA buyer will have a rebuilt title after it processes.  Any other state it will retain its clean title and its also clear/clean for export.  International buyers accepted.  I have described it the best I can and I took 40 pictures to show it better than words can describe.  It has the original data under the hood with the vin that matches the vin plate on the door.  All questions will be answered quickly and honestly.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

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.
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.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

The 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.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
