1971 Mercury Cougar *grabber Lime* 351 Cleveland Coupe Auto A/c P/s P/b on 2040-cars
Venus, Florida, United States
Here's your chance to own a SUPER nice restorable 1971 Cougar.
The Car runs and drives with no issues, other than a stuck choke when starting. Strong 351C-2V engine and c-6 tranny. The car has a small 2" rust hole in passenger side floor, other floors great. Carpet and interior in good condition. Headliner is perfect. No radio. Clock does not work. A/c missing belt. Never tried it. All the chrome is in good condition and intact. Small crack on dash pad. Some small rust bubbles in front of hood and door drop offs. The down side to this car is it needs a roof reskin and the vinyl top replaced. Very rusty under top. Bought the car and have no time to do it. Willing to sell for what we have in to it, so the buy it now price is the bottom line. No trades wanted. Have clean title and receipts since new in FL. I have the build sheet, the window sticker, and all repairs since new. Third owner. Have driven the car to Daytona and back with no issues. Ran great. We are only offering this car for sale because we own (4) Cougars, and its just one too many, and this one needs the roof reskin. We bought two cars after this, and they need little work. This one needs a loving home to someone who can do the top and minimal things she needs. It has an exhaust leak on the right front manifold where it meets the collector, and have not repaired it for fear of breaking the bolt, so it sounds a slight thump thump thump on that side. This is truly a great car in an unusual original color. Have Marti report. Reskin the top and you have a great car with very little other work to do. The rear seat plastic side panels have some sun rot deterioration on them shown in photos. Have not found replacements for them. I have new seat backs to be installed. The front grille and rear tail lights just restored and repainted. The rear valance is not factory. There is a walk around video I can email to you. Any questions, call Ray at 239-823-3291 The car is in Venus, Florida and can be shown with advance notice. The car is for sale locally, and reserve the right to cancel the auction early if sold locally. $500.00 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end and payment in full and cleared funds before title is exchanged. Shipment is buyers responsibility, and sellers can assist with shipper suggestions. The car is being sold "as is-where is" with no warrantee, expressed or implied. All sales are final. |

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The 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.
