1962 Mercury Monterey Base 5.8l on 2040-cars
Fountain Valley, California, United States
|
This car was a one-owner car until I purchased this past summer. It was advertised as "running when I parked it" and I believe that to be true although I have never fired it up. I bought the car as I needed a hood and bumper to finish a restoration on another car. (This is why the bumper is missing - I put the hood from the other car onto this car - it is dented.
Once I took those two parts, it didn't make sense to part out the rest of the car. (The car is otherwise complete and the body is straight.) The car does not run, but the engine is complete and the car was obviously well cared for prior to being parked. The car was parked and has not been run for 5 years. The last picture shows the car as i first bought it with the original hood and bumper (which I want to be clear, I have removed) - I include this picture to give you an idea of what the car would look like by simply replacing the bumper and fixing/priming the hood. Except for the front bumper, ALL the parts and all the chrome are there for this car Check out the pictures! This would be a great restoration project. I AM OFFERING THIS CAR WITH ESSENTIALLY NO RESERVE ($2.00). |

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls
Tue, 04 Nov 2014
Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.
