1973 Mercury Colony Park Woody Wagon with the 460 Big Block.  This car was ordered with every optional upgrade.  Seats have been covered since new in 1973.  Custom Covers were made for them.  The carpet is in excellent shape with a few small stains.  I didn't try to clean it or shampoo it.  Glass is in great shape.  Seats look showroom new.  Dash and door panels are excellent.  Chrome is shiny.  All power options work.  8track player works.  The belt for the air conditioning is off.  I was told it works but didn't install a new belt so its condition is unknown.  The tailgate window is electric and works smoothly.  The tailgate opens both ambulance style and also tailgate style depending on which handle you use to open it.  The two facing third row seats look never used.  I picked the car up out of an old house garage here in Lander last fall from the original owner.  I stored it through the winter and now deciding to sell it.  I had a local mechanic go through all the fluids…it starts and runs excellent.  Floats down the road.  Tires are in great shape.  No leaks on the concrete floor in my building from sitting the winter.  Cracked rubber piece behind front bumper (see pic), golf ball size dent in front bumper (see pic) , vinyl "wood" decal is faded and cracking (see pic),  Sun faded paint and vinyl mainly on driver's side.  Small rock chips on front of hood from rocks (see pic).  There is some fluid around the carb and intake but never enough to get to the ground.  Doors are solid, hinges like new.  Overall, excellent condition! If you have any questions please ask.  I will take additional pics upon request of specific part/area.  57,400 original miles!  NO RESERVE!  Not far from being showroom new… Original owners manual included.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.

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.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
