Galloway, Ohio, United States

 1971 Mercury Capri with 30,000 miles, This car spent the last 40+ years in Pensacola ,  Fl, with its original owner prior to my acquisition  in March 2014. It is my understanding that it was stored in a carport in partial sun and this caused some interior damage although serviceable and not bad for 43 years, all of the paint is original and shows no sign of ever having any bodywork.  Destroyed carpet was removed to show the rust free flooring. The rear D-windows have been upgraded to the drilled glass from a newer model keeping the windows from leaving the vehicle at high speeds. This is still the best Capri I have seen in the East in more than 20 years. The car has several rust spots in very accessible areas including the trunk lid. It has removable surface rust over many body panels but has virtually no rust in the following hard to repair areas: A and B pillars, trunk, under hood, floor pan, battery tray, hood, spring attachment areas and inner wheel wells.  This is the most solid and complete car I have found with all of its trim, great bumpers with near perfect bumper guards. The car currently has a clear Ohio title. The car has not been registered since 2012 and I suspect it set many years before being bought out for one season (grandson?). A tach and radio are installed in the passenger side under-dash compartment.  The car is complete and original with nearly everything.   Will provide specific pictures of any desired body location. The condition of the engine and std tranny are unknown although complete. Only serious bidders, must provide $500 deposit within 48 hours of auction end and full balance due within 7 days. Winner is responsible for shipping and transportation.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
