1969 Mercury Cougar Xr-7 5.8l on 2040-cars
Norwalk, California, United States
|
This car is one of the best driving and looking not to mention fun cougars that I have ever owned, and in the last 30 plus years have had a bunch. The car is about 99.8 percent rust free, has one spot half the size of the end of your pinkie finger under paint at drivers bottom door corner and three bubbles same size under paint on pass. side bottom behind rear wheel, that's it,,,, car is fantastic,,,, The body is fantastic and the interior is like new,,,, head liner and vynol top are about two years old and are great,, The outside and inside of this car are almost like new for the year,, The inside has NO !! holes, tears or rips,,, NONE !!! All outside and inside lights work, even trunk and glove box light (clock and clock light don't work),,, All gauges work except the factory tach, it works but not correctly so added a 8000 rpm tach to steering column, and yes the factory RIM BLOW HORN WORKS !!!!!!!! Car was a factory 3-Speed manual but was changed to a Tremec TKO 5-speed, Work was done right,,, shifts perfect with NO vibration in drive train,, and I MEAN NONE !!! The rear end was changed to a posi rear end, NO winds or howls,,,,,, at 65 to 70 mph on freeway only tachs out at 2500 rpm so car is great for street or freeway and good on gas. Also has Wilwood racing disc brakes on front. This car is not a Barrett Jackson show car, not so much for condition but because of the salvage title, but this car is every bit as good as it looks and I think allot better, I know car was hit on drivers side quarter panel and one a-arm has been replaced, but could not have been hit hard and was repaired correctly,, looks fantastic and drives perfect,,,,, we all know how many old cars have had huge sections cut out because of rust and damage, some times put together from three or four diff cars but they still have a clear title,,, this car has none of that,,,!!!! This is the perfect driver and local car show car to win some trophies,,,, so with the condition and the way it drives unless you are taking it to Barrett Jackson Auction the title shouldn't matter,, and yes you can get classic car insurance like Hagerty or other companies except AAA, they won't do classic insurance on salvage title. So I don't want to hear anything about the title,,,, car is worth every penny I'm asking and more,,,,,,, just take a look at factory stick shifts on eBay and Craigslist and other sites to see what they sell for especially one in this condition if you can even find one this nice,,,, I welcome inspections,,, take a look or bring your mechanic to check it out,, car has NO mechanical problems,,!!!!!!!! No over heating, no noises,,, drive train is perfect,,, Remember this is a fantastic car but is used so is sold AS-IS ,,,,,,, This is eBay so if you bid and win,, YOU OWN IT ,,,!!!!!! please ask all questions before you bid,,,!!!!! Also the lic plates are personal plates and unless car gets at least $500.00 over reserve or is sold to out of state bidder I'm keeping the plates,,,, call, message or text me with any questions and I will do my best to honestly answer your questions,, all answers will be very honest, not lies or stretching the truth,,,, I value my feed back,,,,, number is 562-274-5637 Best time to call is between 5:30 and 11:00 Monday thru Friday and anytime on weekends, if can't answer phone please leave a message and will return it as soon as possible. Good luck and happy bidding ,,,,,,,

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
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.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
