1968 MERCURY MARQUIS
Here is a nice 1968 Mercury Marquis, exterior is silver/grey depending on lighting. Interior is blue. This car has the upgraded brougham package. This Mercury is in nice shape, but does need work to restore it to original perfect shape. The driver's window is off track, we have all the parts but you will need to purchase the guide. There is a small spot on the driver's side rear quarter that will need to be repaired (see pic), there are small bubbles in the paint toward the rear of the car (see pic), since the car has been outside with a car cover. Over all the car is solid, the trunk is solid and the vinyl top is in nice condition.
This Mercury has a 429 V8 engine with a two-barrel carburetor. This car has very low original mileage. It has 66,080 original miles. The title I have in hand, states that when it was purchased from the previous owner, it had approximately 55,000 miles. This car would take some TLC, since it has been stored. This would make a good everyday car or a real nice show car. This car was garage kept for many years and now is under a car cover, since we no longer have a garage for the car. The transmission for the Marquis is a Ford C6, 3-speed automatic. Power front disc brakes. This Mercury is equipped with, AC, power seats, original radio. For the age of the car, it is clearly a real nice looking car. There is very minimal rust for the age of the car. The car runs great, it is very powerful and has good pick up. The interior will need to be cleaned since it has been sitting so long. The previous owner told me that the car is original. The body of the car is smooth and straight. It turly is a unique nice looking car.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
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.
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
