1986 Mercury Capri 5.0 Hatchback 3-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Great Mills, Maryland, United States
|
Very original 1986 Mercury Capri 5.0L. Factory T-top car, with every available option for the 1986 model year. This is a very rare car, with only 1,256 T-top Capri's being produced, and car is approx. 1-170 Oxford White cars. With options, the car in undoubtedly even rarer (The math says this is approx a 1 of <20 car) Beautiful Canyon Red interior, with seats that are 9.5/10. The only interior blemishing is some discoloring and hazing on the dash/instrument panels. Paint is this cars biggest issue. Although it is a driver-quality respray, it has aged considerably and is cracking in areas (Can supply in-depth pictures at request). Car is 100% turn-key, drive it anywhere. Recent maintenance to include: Inner-outer tie rods/balljoints/KYB shocks & struts/KYB Quad-shock/SVT Cobra springs (have originals). Water pump/thermostat/hoses. Serpentine belt, spark plugs, wires, MSD cap&rotor. Starter, starter solenoid,and many vacuum line have also been replaced. AOD transmission was rebuild by a previous owner and has a slight shift kit, but very drive-able. Has nearly all the "Capri-specific" parts that are impossible to find -Cowl panel/Sail louvers/Cat steering wheel. I do not have the correct "cat" center caps, the car comes with "Ford" caps. The correct Marchal 750 fog-lights are available, but not included in sale. This car is absolutely stunning, and always draws compliments at car shows.

Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars
Mon, 03 Jan 2011Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The 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.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
