1952 Mercury Monteray 2dr, Hardtop Nice!! on 2040-cars
Little Rock, Arkansas, United States
Up for sale is my 52 Mercury coupe 2 door hardtop. I unfortunately do not have the time or funds to do this special auto justice. This car gets looks everywhere I take it. It has the makings of an awesome rat rod, hot rod or make it your own custom street rod. It has been restored previously in its life and looks remarkable for its age. The mileage that I have listed is what is showing on the odometer currently but I have no way of knowing what the actual mileage is. I do have a key for it but it only works the ignition. Its driver and passenger windows are spider cracked from age but still holding together. Window regulators in both doors and rear glass are functioning. The hard to find most expensive front and rear glass is not damaged. It drive train is a 302 auto with a 9" rear end. it does run and drive and I have driven it on the road although I would not trust it far. The exhaust is open just past the manifolds. So it is loud. The original brakes do function and stop the Merc. The original front end is nice and tight. That being said, I would suggest a trailer for the ride home. The electrical system has been updated to 12 volts and the front headlights have been replaced. the rear tail lights will need to rewired. The body and floor do have some rust as to be expected from a 50+ year old car. When the previous restoration was done patch panels were made for the floor pans so the floor does not give. The original gas tank has been removed but is included with the car. It runs off a fuel cell mounted in the trunk. The original hubcaps are also included. The wheels have been replaced and the tires are older but probably don't have 1000 miles on them and would last for some time as they are not dry rotted. The interior is nice but does show it age in places. This is an excellent start to get u going on a restoration or repair just minor items and drive it. Please ask any question before u bid or make an appointment to come out and look. I am available most days before 1pm. Call, text or send a message thru ebay and I can help u. 870-917-4381. I have a clean Arkansas title for this car so it is ready to go. I can assist with loading if needed. ask any questions before u bid as ur bid is a contract. I do have a reserve but it is not outrageous and it is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early as needed. I am asking for a $500 deposit within 24 hrs of the auctions close. The balance is due within 7 days payable by cashiers check or cash but it will be paid for in full and verified before the car and title leaves my possession. I can hold the car until we can make arrangements for it to be paid for and picked up. Max 14 days please. I am willing to sell worldwide but funds to be paid in USD and u are responsible for all shipping arrangements and fees . Thanks, happy biding, good luck!!!

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.
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.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue
Fri, 12 Sep 2014Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
