1973 Mercury Cougar with the Eliminator Package (cloned).  Has the most desirable color in factory "burnt orange".  Screams 1970's.  Clone Eliminator package in black.  69000 original miles.  Excellent condition overall.  A very nice driver.  Original 351 Cleveland .  Recent Edelbrock carb.  Dual exhaust added at one point.  Very loud and proud.  The car was repainted the original factory color at one point, a decent paint job.  Still bright but with minor hazing in a couple of places.  Excellent original top with no snags or tears.  This car was and is not a rusty car anywhere.  The interior is overall excellent, only needing a drivers door panel to eliminate a five inch crack and a one inch crack.  Dash is perfect.  Original radio not in car.  I have extra material for the interior.  Has AC, appears to work but not ice cold.  Needs nothing but detailed.  Seen recently by a mechanic who works on vintage cars and he was impressed with how clean underneath the car has remained.  Has new master cylinder and new aluminum radiator.  If you are picky you may want to put new wheels on it as they are pitted in some places and not original to the car.  Tires are matching Kellys all the way around.  Open to partial trade for a snowmobile, snowmobile trailer or celebrity music memorabilia.  This car has been used in a couple films and a new CMT TV series.  A very solid car.  You can call me at 615 504 1512 for walk around details.

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!

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.
