This Cougar has been well cared for over the years so the original paint, top and interior look great. It is not a garage queen or a museum bound dust collector, it is a driver. The magazine article shown claims that this Cougar was also built by Shelby Mustang in Las Vegas and also claims it was one of the three Shelby Cougars that was in the James Bond movie "Her Majesty's Service". AT BEST I BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A CLONE OF THE REAL SHELBY COUGARS USED AT THE MOVIE. This1969 cougar 428 car is claimed to have been owned by Carroll Shelby but there is no documentation. The FE motor has been warmed over and includes aluminum Shelby valve covers and a rare ram air cleaner assembly. The engine is coupled to a C6 automatic transmission connected to the Ford nodular case 9 inch differential. The car was also been upgraded with Shelby’s sway bar's front and rear and a Shelby roll bar. The body still has the original factory candy apple red paint job. Special features include a large hood scoop, an air dam and a rear spoiler. The Cougar also has Cobra insignias and Shelby wheels. With the original white convertible top up you can enjoy the air conditioning, power steering, power windows and power brakes. In the article about the Cougar, the previous order claimed the authenticity of the Cougar when Carroll Shelby signed the dash and spent time with the previous order. One way or another this Cougar Cobra Jet “tribute” car is fun to own and drive and gives you many stories to tell at your next outing. |

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.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue
Fri, Dec 20 2019Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.
