1954 Mercury Monterey Coupe "Rat Rod"

For sale:

Probably the coolest 54 Merc “restomod” you’ve ever put your grubby little hands on. Definitely not for those who prefer to be unnoticed. Black on black, and a very rare find.

If you’ve ever attempted to restore or modify a classic or antique car into a daily driver with many of the amenities of today’s vehicles, you can probably appreciate the labor and dedication that has been invested in this vehicle. The modern touches are:

*Air Conditioning – yep, it’s real and it really works.

*Late 80’s 5.0 liter 302 with 4 barrel carb – Just enough oomph to get your attention, coupled with an AOD transmission, all from the “bulletproof” 5.0 mustang you know and love. AKA – one of Ford’s most reliable powertrains.

*Mustang II front end with power disk brakes and power steering…stops as well as it goes!

*Custom “more than you can ever use” sound system. Tastefully done, including sub, amps, and speakers galore, all installed with style and substance. Bluetooth capable.

*Additional “bad ass optima” in the trunk on top of the “bad ass optima” battery under the hood. If you run out of power while listening to your ridiculous sound system, you’ve been sitting still entirely too long.

*Remote actuated doors via either wireless remote or hidden switches, door handles have been shaved.

*Flat Black “Bad to the bone” paint, and tinted windows all around. The coolest rims and tires that could possibly go on a 54 mercury are on this one, huge thick whitewalls and smooth moon hubcaps!

Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford 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.
