1965 Mercury Park Lane Marauder With Hipo 390 on 2040-cars
Camano Island, Washington, United States
|
1965 Mercury Park Lane Marauder with a HIPo 390 and 3-speed Merc-o-Matic transmission. See video http://youtu.be/baMk45Dfj4I. Body work has been completed and primed. It has been in climate controlled storage since work was completed. The body is straight. This car has been in the family since 2001. The engine runs VERY strong! Custom tuned Edelbrock carburetor and 2 1/2 inch exhaust. The transmission slips somewhat in reverse. Interior is good: good floor panels, needs carpet, some chrome needs work, bucket seats (driver’s seat seams are coming apart,) rear bench, and door panels are in good repair. (A previous owner sprayed black vinyl paint over the cream colored vinyl.) Power windows, manual choke, no A/C, factory tachometer, etc. I have EVERY trim piece except passenger rear post interior light cover, one chrome lock knob cover, and rear speaker. This is incredible since body parts can prove to be near impossible to find. This is a very special car and I regret having to get rid of it but baby #1 on his way! Please feel free to ask any questions. DELIVERY NOT AVAILABLE. Vehicle located on Camano Island WA, 98282 |

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It'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 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.
Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
