I have owned this car for 14 years and selling only because my priorities have changed. It started out life as a 5.0 with a t-5 transmission. I have transformed this car into a monster with a 408 stroker and a built C-4 transmission with a 4,500 stall and a reverse manual valve body. There is all forged Eagle internals with all high end components throughout. Brodix cnc aluminum heads approx. 11 to 1 comp. It has a complete roller system. I would estimate 600 to 650 to rear wheels. Transmission shifts perfect and crisp and car is verrrry street able, runs very cool for it's pedigree. It has a 8.8 rear with 4.10 gears. Full interior that is complete. Car is not butchered or pieced together. This car comes down the road with complete intimidation and authority. I have over 25,000 dollars invested in this car, plus extra labor not included in that total. Please feel free to ask me any additional questions. I am trying to be as honest as I can. Scammers need not show interest. I am an educated person looking for a fair deal. This car means alot to me, but my children mean more. Thanks for taking the time to look at my auction.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The 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.

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.
