1973 Mercury Colony Park Woody Wagon with the 460 Big Block.  This car was ordered with every optional upgrade.  Seats have been covered since new in 1973.  Custom Covers were made for them.  The carpet is in excellent shape with a few small stains.  I didn't try to clean it or shampoo it.  Glass is in great shape.  Seats look showroom new.  Dash and door panels are excellent.  Chrome is shiny.  All power options work.  8track player works.  The belt for the air conditioning is off.  I was told it works but didn't install a new belt so its condition is unknown.  The tailgate window is electric and works smoothly.  The tailgate opens both ambulance style and also tailgate style depending on which handle you use to open it.  The two facing third row seats look never used.  I picked the car up out of an old house garage here in Lander last fall from the original owner.  I stored it through the winter and now deciding to sell it.  I had a local mechanic go through all the fluids…it starts and runs excellent.  Floats down the road.  Tires are in great shape.  No leaks on the concrete floor in my building from sitting the winter.  Cracked rubber piece behind front bumper (see pic), golf ball size dent in front bumper (see pic) , vinyl "wood" decal is faded and cracking (see pic),  Sun faded paint and vinyl mainly on driver's side.  Small rock chips on front of hood from rocks (see pic).  There is some fluid around the carb and intake but never enough to get to the ground.  Doors are solid, hinges like new.  Overall, excellent condition! If you have any questions please ask.  I will take additional pics upon request of specific part/area.  57,400 original miles!  NO RESERVE!  Not far from being showroom new… Original owners manual included.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

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."
