Vancouver, Washington, United States
|
Ok...here we go, I have a One owner 1963 Mercury Monterey Custom Breezeway 4 dr Sedan. 390 2V, Automatic, PS, PB, and power rear window that works flawlessly. The car has 110,000 miles on it, was always garaged its whole life until last year when it sat out under a pine tree. The paint is a good 15 footer, but it is original paint, the interior is really good but the carpet is a little soiled, all the gauges work, the AM radio works. The trunk is intact just like it was in 1963 with the jack, and original bias ply spare. The car runs and drives great, I have put 600 miles on it since Ive had it, going to local car shows, cruise ins and such. It always gets a lot of attention... I have changed the oil, rebuilt the carb, replaced the distributor, the cap, rotor, wires, it has 4 new tires on it, new battery, voltage regulator, starter solenoid, fresh antifreeze, the tank has been dropped and cleaned out, all the lights work including back up lights, and I cant stress enough how straight and solid the body is for a 51 year old car. The glass is perfect as well. I bought this at an estate sale, I have all the proper paper work, death certificates ect... I do have the car listed locally so I reserve the right to remove my ad at any time.. Buyer is responsible for his or her OWN shipping arrangements..this car is drivable, and I wouldnt be afraid to drive it anywhere as long as you checked fluids periodically...which common sense would tell you to do on any car until you get to know it....this is an original garage find car...in great original condition... they are only original once...
NOTE the missing horn button in the pics is actually on the car, just not at the time the photos were taken... |

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Here 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.
