I have for sale a 1968 Mercury Cougar. It has a 351 Cleveland engine with a T5 transmission. It is a running driving project car. It could use some carb work to be running really good but i drove it a lot last summer. Since I have owned it i have put a lot of new parts on it including new brake lines, brake master cylinder, it has drum brakes all the way around, the wheel cylinders have been replaced, new shoes. The carb isnt that old its a Holley 600 cfm but like i said it needs some tuning. New alternator, New MSD coil. New distributor. New battery. New plug wires. Car has headers. Transmission is a t5 from a 91 mustang. It shifts fine but grinds a little going into reverse, has a cable clutch setup. The body is pretty good. I showed the worst rust on the whole car on the floors in the pics and its not terrible, but your not getting a perfect car. it will need some body work and paint. paint is blue matelflake but the clear coat is shot. probably 30 plus year old paint job. contact me of you want to see it or have any other questions. i can also send you more pictures if you want to see something specific.It is for sale locally so i reserve the right to end the action if sold locally.

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!
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The 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.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
