This listing is for a 1963 Mercury Comet Convertible with a clean Florida title and current registration. I have owned it a year or so and it's been a great car, but I have to make room for a new project.

This Comet is a cool restomod/hot rod type build. It blends classic styling and lines with a more modern drivetrain and brakes.

This comet is a solid driving car that has never left me stranded. I drive it usually once every week or Two. The paint is a good driver quality, and it shows very well, but it does have a few knicks and chips.The body is also nice and smooth but if you look hard enough you may find a small ding or two. I bought this car from California, and it is completely rust free. The original California black plates will come with the car if desired. The new power top functions correctly. It has heat and defrost, but no a/c. The two tone interior is in great shape and really sets the car off ! This car moves and turns serious heads.


Pros:
351 Windsor V8
Tremec 5 speed Hurst shifter
Posi rear
GM tilt column
March pulley kit system
Electric fan
Disk brakes
New top

Cons:
Few small paint chips and dings
Needs new trunk lock
The emblems and some chrome could use restoring
Could use new window felt
Top of aluminum grille needs refinishing
Needs new receiver for door solenoid popper  



Please e-mail me for phone number or with questions. I can send specific pictures upon request.

The car is available to be seen by appointment. The car is listed and for sale locally and this listing may end early if sold locally.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.

What do you do with a fake Bugatti Veyron for $60k?

Tue, Mar 29 2016

Replica cars are a challenging labor of love because builders spend countless hours recreating a vehicle that people immediately compare to the real thing. Perhaps, the person behind this Mercury Cougar-based Bugatti Veyron should look for another way to pass that time. The coupe is currently for sale on eBay Motors for $59,900. The builder deserves some credit because the fiberglass body looks acceptable in the photos from farther away. The car might even fool a few people from a distance. However, the devil is in the details, and the closer you look, the worse this gets. The side intakes are especially rough. The red interior is atrocious. It's essentially the Cougar's cabin but in an eye-searing shade accented with lots of fake carbon fiber. The seller's eBay Motors ad really tries to market the look, though. "You slide in to [sic] this extremely comfortable leather interior and you feel like your bank account just quadrupled in size," the listing says. Don't expect to win any top speed titles in this Veyron replica, either. Rather than a mid-mounted quad-turbo W16, a 3.0-liter V6 from a Mercury Sable sits at the front. Thanks to an upgraded intake and exhaust, the seller claims, "It doesn't sound like your grandmas [sic] Sable." We wish the seller the best of luck, but the asking price of nearly $60,000 is probably too optimistic. We would still think twice about buying it even after taking a zero off that figure, but at least this thing is fun to look at. Related Video:
