1969 Mercury Cougar on 2040-cars
West Roxbury, Massachusetts, United States
I am selling my 1969 Mercury Cougar. This vehicle is a matching number and fully documented piece of American Muscle History. This was an older restoration from the ground up from sometime in the late 90s by the previous owner. For the past few years she has really been a blast to own and has always been a turn key type of car with no issues. The Engine is the 351 Windsor with a mild cam along with a Holly 750 4 Barrel Carb. New Hooker headers going into dual 40 series Flowmasters which makes this cat really roar. Has a C6 transmission with a 9 inch posi rear end. The Body was repainted at the time of its restoration with its original "Y" Code Burnt Orange Metalic Paint #3202-A. The Interior is jet black with bucket seats in mint condition with no rips or torn material. The engine compartment is clean. The trunk is very clean with its padding in place. This vehicle originally came with 14 inch Magnum 500 Chrome Wheels on brand new Dunlop Qualifier raised white lettered tires which are also in the purchase along with the 15 inch Cragars which have brand new B.F Goodrich Radial T/A tires that are on the vehicle now. Today you could not fully restore this Cougar for my asking price never mind trying to find a good clean solid one to begin with. This is a daily driver when weather permits, always stored inside climate controlled garage and never driven in the rain or snow. If interested please feel free to call me at Three,Three,Nine-Two,Two,Five-Eight,Seven,Five,Five and I will be happy to answer any questions you might have. |

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There 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 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.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.
