Up for sale is this fine example of a 77 Cougar. I purchased it from the original owner who bought it in 1977 from a dealer in Columbus Ohio as a weekend car. When I got it it had only 9500 miles, and now has a bit over 10,000. The car runs and drives like new and shows very well.

The previous owner made a few changes to the car from original. A Holley 4 bbl. and an Edelbrock manifold were installed, as well as dual exhaust. I have the original cast iron 2 bbl that goes with the car but I do not have the original carb. He also added a chrome alternator and had the exhaust manifolds Jet Coated which are now a bit rusty. When I got the car, age had taken its toll on the all white interior. Some of the interior parts had yellowed badly. I removed the interior and refinished the badly discolored parts to a blue that matches the factory blue of the dash. That change made a huge difference in the appearance of the interior, and in my opinion should have been the way it was trimmed originally. I replaced the leaky heater core and the deteriorated polyurethane flex joint in the steering column. Also replaced were the heater hoses and the heater control valve. The master cylinder which was leaking was also replaced, but the car still retains its original "like new" brake pads and shoes. I repacked the front wheel bearings and serviced the caliper slides on the front brakes. The rear brake mechanisms were checked and cleaned as well.

The trunk still holds the original unused General HR78-15 spare but the other 4 have been replaced, probably because of age. The car even has its original wiper blades. The paint shows some defects and there are some gravel chips behind the wheels, but is quite nice for a 37 year old car. The vinyl top is flawless and soft and the original Polycast wheels are like new.

If you have any questions, please ask. Thanks for looking!

The AM37 is literally the Aston Martin of boats

Wed, Sep 28 2016

While sports car companies such as Porsche and Lamborghini are looking to SUVs to expand their offerings, Aston Martin has taken a page from Mercedes and designed a boat. Specifically, it's a 37-foot powerboat appropriately named the AM37. The boat was developed with help from Mulder Design and Quintessence Yachts, and is available in two different versions, both of which should the aquatic equivalent of Aston Martin performance. The standard AM37 is available with two different pairs of engines from Mercury, either 370-horsepower diesel engines or 450-horsepower gas engines. If that's not enough, Aston also offers the AM37S, which comes with a pair of 520-horsepower gasoline Mercury engines. Like road-going Astons, this boat is absolutely gorgeous. The lines are simple, crisp and clean. It features a beautiful wood deck, and an impressive double-curved, single-piece glass windshield. And if you get tired of the sun, the AM37 features a powered, carbon fiber bimini top. The interior completes the package with a carbon fiber dashboard, lots of leather and polished steering wheel, throttle and joystick. It's also incredibly well-equipped with seating for eight, air conditioning, mood lighting, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, a bed that folds out from the table, and even a bathroom. Aston Martin didn't release pricing or availability for the AM37. However, we suspect that if you really want this boat and have the means, pricing doesn't matter, and you're probably willing to wait.

This Mercury Cyclone is an American Muscle Car in Norway

Tue, Oct 27 2015

The picturesque Norwegian countryside certainly doesn't seem like the natural stomping grounds for a 1969 Mercury Cyclone, but owner Alexander Brevik makes the odd combo look like an ideal match. Even with the beautiful surroundings, Brevik sees no need to enjoy the scenery; he'd much rather just be driving this vintage muscle car. Take a ride with him in the latest clip from Petrolicious. Like many of us, Brevik's automotive obsession started at childhood, and today he has amassed a multitude of projects to wrench on. While he loves working on all of these cars, we all need a break sometimes, and that's what the Cyclone is for. Even when the rest of his collection isn't running, this orange beauty is always ready to go. Brevik may not pay much attention to the landscape, but Petrolicious makes the muscle car look fantastic in the Norwegian woods nonetheless. With its rumbling V8 engine and three-speed manual, this Cyclone turns out to be a perfect cruising companion in the Land of the Midnight Sun. And if you just can't get enough of classic muscle cars and the people who love them, check out our video coverage of the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit down below. Related Video:

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible

Wed, 31 Aug 2011

Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.
