This is a very nice daily driver.  I'm sorry to sell this car but I need to make room.  This car has spent most of it's life in California and Arizona.  I have owned it for 8 years.  During that time have have fixed or replaced many things, such as: Sequential tail light system now works, Trans and rear main seals have been replaced, new power top motor, new alternator, power steering pump, water pump, radiator, dashboard redone, valve job, original carb professionally rebuilt, sun visors, interior rear window m irror, points, plugs, wires, complete exhause pipes and dual mufflers, 4 new tires.The car belonged to a Snow Bird who lived up north but kept the car either in California or Arizona.  The body is very straight, the paint is 6 months old.  It has not even been color sanded yet although it looks great the way it is.  There are two bucket seats with a console between them.  There is a 8-track player and AM/FM radion.  The radio works great, the 8 track is intermittent.  The dash and everything associated with it is beautiful. The top and power windows work fine.  It still has the original leather interior with Cougar Logo seat backs.  The interior needs a bit of work.  I didn't know whether to keep the original or replace it so I have done neither.  It's all there.  The top is tan and has a glass rear window which needs to be restitched.  The cars starts every time and is fun to drive, it gets a ton of looks.  If you have any questions please ask.  I have included many photos.

There are no dents or any body damage. There is no rust. I have the original bill of sale and invoice from theselling dealership. I also have the original owners manual. I have the original Courgar XR-7 wire wheel covers. I have a white parade boot which is in good condition.

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.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
