This Grand Marquis was owned by my Dad he gave it to me three years ago. Dad purchased this vehicle new in December of 1986 from Sentry lincoln/Mercury in Medford, MA and it has never seen sand or salt roads. This vehicle has 108K original miles. The vehicles has no rust, nor has it ever been in an accident. The car is extremely clean inside and out, including the underside, but the paint has faded with age. In the last two years since I have own the car I have done many mechanical updates. New tires, shocks, exhaust, battery , AC compressor,  and heater core, rear brakes, rear drums and wheel cylinders ,master cylinder. In November of 2012 I replaced the water pump and while everything was apart I replaced the timing change cover, power steering pump, alternator, clutch fan, radiator, all hoses and belts, thermostat  and anti freeze, new spark plugs, distributor cap and rotor. Also at the same time replaced front brakes, rotors and wheel bearings. This car is mechanically sound and needs nothing. Starts and drives very well. Steering and suspension are solid.

Options: Equipped with 5.0 liter fuel injected engine with over drive transmission, power windows and door locks, power side mirrors, power driver and passenger front seats, reclining front seats, rear window defroster, climate control, date/time clock, cruise control, AM/FM cassette radio, tilt steering wheel, corning lights, power truck release, power antenna, although this is currently not working. I do have the part to repair it. Spare tire new was purchased when tires were replaced and has never been used. Vehicle is also been a smoke free vehicle.

The negatives. Small impact dent on driver side rear door from a basketball hit it does not show well in the pictures it is near the top where the pin stripe is. Small dent in roof near the top of rear window, this was done by a transport company when my Dad would ship the car to Florida. Passenger front door needs new power door lock actuator.  Rear passenger  door window motor runs but the window does not go up or down. 

Everything else works perfectly including the clock which also provides the date. We have a service journal on the car since the day it was purchased with everything that was ever done with dates and mileage recorded, oil changed religiously at 3 thousand miles or less since new.

The vehicle is purchased as is where is and it is the responsibility of the buyer to ship the vehicle if that is your preference. Bank transfer prior to pick up or cash at time of pick up is acceptable.

Thanks for looking .

    NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

    Mon, 25 Feb 2013

    Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
    Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.

    eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

    Wed, 29 Jan 2014

    Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
    While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
    The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

    Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

    Wed, 05 Jan 2011

    The 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.
