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!

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.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
