This is a numbers matching 1969 Mercury Cougar Convertible with a 351 W 2 valve carburetor. The passenger side floors have been redone and much exterior body work has been done as well. The driver side floor needs replaced, but included in the selling price are brand new floor sheet metal (Ford price sticker still intact). The driver side inner rocker panel will need replaced, but a new rocker panel (also with the price sticker remaining) is additionally included with sale. All of the interior is included and is in good shape. Both passenger and driver bucket seats have a tear in the sitting portion which can easily be reupholstered. The only interior piece missing is the carpet and its corresponding insulation. It does not have an exhaust at all (no headers/exhaust manifolds, pipes, or mufflers). The engine was winterized when stored 13 years ago. It ran before it was winterized; however, I am not sure if it will still run. The grill on the passenger side has a rung missing out of it; however, included in the selling is an extra passenger side grill piece that is in perfect condition. The driver's side grill is perfectly in tact. There is an additional door that comes with the car as well as many more additional parts. If you have any questions call me at (330) 301-9581.

Please note that the buyer is responsible for all shipping/arranging for pick-up. Full payment is expected upon pick up within the time allotted week as per ebay's policies.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The 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.

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.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
