1969 Mercury Cougar Xr7 Base 5.8l on 2040-cars
Lincoln, Nebraska, United States

Selling a 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7. I have a good clear title in my name. the car has not been driven in years and I don't know much about the engine and drivetrain except that is a 351W with air conditioning and an automatic transmission. 9" rearend. It Also has the factory Tach that a lot of cougar enthusiasts are looking for. The undercarriage of the car is very good. Most of the ones i see are rusted out and this still has solid torque boxes and frame rails. Sorry no tilt steering and the window mechanisms were all taken out when I got it. The car is a good candidate for a restoration. The rear quarters have some dents in them as you can see from the pics. Overall I think the car is in good shape. Feel free to ask some questions and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Yes this is the car that was listed a couple of weeks ago. I tried selling it as a package deal with another cougar shell butI had so many offers for this and that and that and this. I just decided to list them separately I probably should have done that the first time. Anyways, What you see is what you get. A good xr7 cougar worthy of restoration with a title. I think 1500 is a fair starting price for a complete car. thanks and I can help you load it on your trailer if I'm around or help a shipper load it but I don't have the time to haul it to you. thanks and have a good day.
Sincerely, Sean |

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls
Tue, 04 Nov 2014
Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
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.
