THIS CAR WAS SOLD !!! Had a legitimate bid then in the last few minutes a brand new account Liza93 outbid buyer. Story was the person was oceanographer and at sea and wanted to send me an additional $1,000 to wire to the shipper. I checked Scamdex and this person uses this name often and basically the same story.

This is my time listing this car, after 3 listings and loosing a real buyer due to a scam buyer I am done after this.
I am now offering this car for as little as 1,200.00 and I paid over $400 just for the tires. If it doesn't go this time it goes to storage.

So here we go again !! And I will not accept bids from new eBay accounts with a zero rating unless you contact me first.

1993 Mercury Cougar XR7 Special Edition, Mercury Teal with Gray leather interior.
Power Windows, Power Seats, Power Locks, Power Sunroof. 
2 Door V6 Coupe, Cougar Aluminum Wheels with Cougar Center.
Bought 4 new tires from Sears, New Battery, everything else seems to work just fine. Stereo has a mind of its own sometimes it shuts off then turns back on but only on radio setting, CD works fine all the time.
Car has no body damage does have a little surface rust and paint fade. Surface rust spots popped up in areas where paint faded a lot and living on an island at the ocean turns it fast, but as you will see in pics it's not bad. 
I bought the car for my son who will be licensed soon and we were going to have it repainted. It's too much car in size and power for him, plus with the small back windows it has visibility issues for a new driver. I paid 2,600.00 for the car and now that he will be driving a smaller Cobalt I need to make room as we live in a condo with restricted number of parking spots.
I am starting the car out at an unbelievable $1,600.00 and a buy it now of $2,000.00 this car has been recently driven to Pennsylvania and back to North Carolina so there is no issue with picking it up and driving it anywhere. Depending on where it's going and for a reasonable cost we will drive it to you. Car must be paid in full before it leaves, I will overnight title if needed. This car is an up coming classic and will make a nice future hot rod. Email me with any questions, I will answer or find the answer for you.
Thanks for looking

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

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.

Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7

Sun, 31 Jul 2011

You 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.
