1968 Mercury Cougar Xr7g Sunroof, Factory Air on 2040-cars
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada
|
This is a 1968 Mercury Cougar XR7G 390, factory sunroof, factory air conditioned project car. The car is a true XR7G and the Marti report is included to prove. This is one of only 619 G cars and is very rare so it deserves a restoration. I purchased this car from North Carolina and the US title is still with the car so it can easily be returned to the US. For that matter the car has the Canadian taxes paid so it can be easily transferred to a Canadian title also. The car has all the really hard to find correct factory xr7g parts including the floor console, g mirror, sunroof parts, super puff door panels, three pin headlight door button, third horn, hood scoop, and front valance lucas fog lamp buckets etc. The car has the correct date coded engine but it is apart right now. The car is a very restorable car but with any older car they have some issues, this car needs floor panels but the frame rails and torque boxes appear to be solid. The car should have a passenger quarter panel and passenger door pillar post replaced because a previous repair was in my opinion not done up to snuff for the caliber of car that this is. The car was hit on the passenger side at one point in its life, but the rocker was not hit and it still has the original date coded windshield in it so it was obviously not hit that hard. I can possibly help with the shipping but it would cost an additional fee. Serious inquiries can call me at two five zero eight 96 six zero 40 Please ask all questions before bidding.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers
Mon, 04 Aug 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
