1950 4-Door Mercury Rat Rod

   Up for sale is a1950 Mercury 4-door chopped lead sled.

The top is chopped 4.75” front and back. This car is a Rat Rod that I built to cruise around in. There is a lot of head room for taller people. If you have passengers in the back seat, you might want to put air shocks on the rear.

   It has two spotlights (just for show), along with:

Grounding Straps,

Fulton Sun Visor,

AM/FM radio with a CD player Stereo System,

2 Power Antennas,

Laker side pipes,

All new Dolphin Gauges,

Air Conditioning,

Cruise Control,

Power Locks (not all locks are working at this time), and

Power Windows.

    I took the frame, drive train, the floor pans, and fire wall from a 1999 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor 4.6L V8 automatic RWD and put the 1950 Mercury body on it. It has 4-wheel dise brakes and the suspension is beefed up because it is a Police Interceptor.

 This Mercury drives very well and is dependable. It starts right up and is ready to drive home. Runs on unleaded regular gas. This Mercury will pass your state inspections.

    I will answer any questions. Car is sold as is. No trades.  Serious buyers only.

Thanks.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

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.

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.
