Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"She's an oldie but a goodie! Fairly good condition, just some minor imperfections here and there. As the pictures show, there are a few body flaws: clear coat cracked/missing on front hood and bumper, small rust spots on hood and side, and shallow scratches. Mechanical defects are at a minimum, since we've been focusing on fixing the essentials as needed for a safe and comfortable ride. Some "wearable" parts may need replacing, but no major repair is necessary."

This Sable is a clean, well-maintained vehicle. It's a smooth and steady ride in a comfortable, smoke-free interior. Despite being old, she still has a lot of life left in her and is very reliable. Many major repairs have been performed within the past few years by a reputable group of mechanics, so no major work should be required for the foreseeable future!! Good to go! Recently replaced parts include items from the engine, exhaust system, brake/wheel systems, and suspension. (All calipers, sway bars, 2 rotors, brake pad with lifetime warranty, brake lines, shock/strut, master cylinder, lower ball joint, alignment, Interstate battery, etc.) The transmission was also rebuilt a few years ago. We will provide exhaustive maintenance/repair records to the buyer, so that you may use them for reference with your own mechanic (and warranty information on covered parts).

Extra features added include front fog lights and rear spoiler. I inherited this car from my grandmother, and she was very easy on it. She didn't drive it long distances and definitely didn't race with it, so that's why it only has 130k miles despite being a 1997 model. However, it's been driven long distances once in a while (100 miles at a time or more) and does do well with those conditions also. It's been fairly dependable over the several years my wife and I have owned it. We are getting rid of it because we finally saved up enough to upgrade to a sportier car. But this Sable still has years and many miles to go before it quits!!
The registration and inspection expired this month, so that will need to be done. It needs to be out of our lot very soon, as we live in an apartment complex and they do not tolerate stationary vehicles sitting around. No reasonable offer will be refused! We will accept cash or bank check (no personal checks, please) up front.

Mercury Cougar from Bond film 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service' is up for auction

Fri, Nov 20 2020

To a James Bond fan, this is a very cool and important car. This 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7 up for auction by Bonhams was one of three used during the filming of 1969's "On Her Majesty's Secret Service," the one-and-done film starring George Lazenby that's a dark horse favorite among many Bond fans (this one included, there's a Japanese-market 'OHMSS' poster hanging behind me as I type this). However, this was not James Bond's car in the movie. He drove an Aston Martin DBS, including in the film's pre-titles sequence when he follows Tracy di Vicenzo driving her bright red Cougar. She would go on to rescue him with it in Switzerland (hence the skis), sacrificing its pretty red paint and body work in a demolition derby on ice that they use to shake Blofeld's Benz-driving goons. Later, after getting caught in a blizzard, they seek refuge in a barn -- a pivotal scene in the film and one where this particular Cougar was apparently used.  ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE | Ice Car Race However, even without the Bond connection, this Cougar is a very cool car. It was one of only 127 in 1969 to be fitted with the top-of-the-line 428 CobraJet Ram Air V8 rated at 335 horsepower. Tracy had a serious muscle car. Bonham's doesn't seem to have thought to provide a Marti report, but I'm guessing the build of XR7, convertible and a color combo of matching red exterior and interior wasn't exactly a common one. Well, we know there were at least three. With skis and French number plates, too.  As for the '69 Cougar itself, this was the only year it looked like this: it got a new body for '69 that would last two years, but the horizontal grille slats that extended over the headlight doors (so cool!) didn't carry over to 1970. It looked worse, and it could easily be argued that it was only downhill from here for the Cougar.  The auction is set for December 16 and Bonhams is estimating a sale price of between $130,000 and $200,000. That certainly makes sense given the rarity of a CobraJet Cougar, the film connection and the complete restoration undertaken by the man who found it in a classified ad in the late 1980s. He originally just wanted it for the engine until he discovered the Bond connection. I actually saw this very car at the 50th Anniversary "Bond in Motion" exhibit at the Beaulieu Motor Museum in England back in 2013 (pictured below). There's also a model of the thing sitting next to me.

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.
