1986 Mercury Capri 5.0. Oxford White with Canyon Red interior. 102,XXX miles This car was completely optioned out for the 1986 model year. This particular car was ordered with the Power Door Lock group, which included - Power Door Locks, Power trunk release, Cruise Control. Air Conditioning, Premium Sound system, AOD transmission which shifts perfectly, and may have been rebuilt with a shift kit. The rarest option on this car is T-Tops (1 of 1,252 in 1986). Due to the particularly high attrition rate in 5.0 Fox body cars, i'm sure this number is currently lower. This car represents the top of the line Fox platform car available in 1986 (Capri, Mustang, Fairmont). Recently the car has gone through a light mechanical restoration, to include: Motorcraft OEM spark plugs, Ford Racing plug wires, OEM replacement balljoints, inner and outer tie rods, alignment, front brake rotors and pads ( rears will need attention), starter, solenoid, battery terminals and wires, radiator. The interior of the car is near flawless, with the exception of the dash, which is sun-damaged and has a cover over it. The Canyon Red seats are still vibrant, and may have been re-upholstered at some time in the recent years. This car still has the Luggage cover, unfortunately the T-top covers are no longer with the car. Drivetrain is completely stock, with the exception of an off-road H pipe, and American Thunder series Flowmasters. Paint is very nice, unfortunately it has begun to peel in some spots due to lack of prep during re-paint. It is otherwise very straight and clean, even wearing its original front fascia tag on the coolant support. Car does have a lien on it which will need to be lifted before you can assume the title. I will not sell the car for less than the lien so this should not be an issue.

Petrolicious shows Mercedes 280SL as architecture in motion
Wed, Jun 17 2015While still an absolute beauty today, the design of the pagoda-roof W113 Mercedes-Benz SL was revolutionary when it debuted. Moving away from the soft curves of the previous SL models, the all-new generation brought an upright, angular shape that was as much architectural as automotive. In the latest video from Petrolicious, owner and architect Daniel Monti expounds on the inspiration that he gets from his 1969 280SL's fantastic styling. The roof is the most famous design feature of this generation of SL. Look at the top from the front or back, and you can see a gentle, downward arc that evokes the look of a pagoda. That one styling element is also a fabulous counterpoint to a vehicle that is largely more angular than curvaceous. Petrolicious wonderfully illustrates how some of the SL's form-follows-function design aesthetic can be found in the architect's work in this video's heaping helping of mid-century modern goodness.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack
Sat, May 30 2015With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.
