I HAVE FOR SALE A 1965 COMET CALIENTE. I PURCHASED THE CAR OVER TEN YEARS AGO. IN THE TEN YEARS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR I MIGHT HAVE PUT 100 MILES ON IT. THE CAR SITS IN THE GARAGE. SO RATHER THEN LET THE CAR SIT IN MY GARAGE FOREVER I FIGURED I WOULD TRY TO SELL IT.

I HAVE DID NOTHING TO THE CAR SINCE I PURCHASED IT OTHER THEN CHANGING OIL AND SPARK PLUGS.

THE CAR IS IN GOOD SHAPE. THE FRAME AND TORQUE BOXES ARE GOOD. THE PASSENGER TORQUE BOX HAS BEEN REPAIRED(IN PICTURES). NO RUST HOLES IN FLOORS. THE FENDERS AND DOORS ARE SOLID . ROCKERS GOOD. THE BOTTOMS OF THE REAR QUARTERS HAVE BEEN REPARIED AT ONE TIME. THE HOOD AND TRUNK LID ARE SOLID. UNDER THE HOOD THE SHOCK TOWERS ARE SOLID. THE PAINT ON THE CAR STILL HAS SHINE BUT IS IN NO WAY PERFECT.

THE INTERIOR IN THE CAR IS IN GOOD SHAPE FOR THE YEAR. THE CARPET AND DOOR PANELS ARE ORGINAL BUT IN DECENT SHAPE. THE BACK SEAT IS NICE. THE DASH PAD IS GOOD. THE FRONT SEAT HAS A FEW TEARS WHERE THE SEAMS ARE. THE CAR HAS THE FACTORY AM RADIO. THE HEADLINER HAS BEEN REPLACED AT ONE TIME.

THE CAR STILL HAS THE ORGINAL 289 ENGINE IN IT. IT HAS THE ORGINAL FACTORY 2 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. NO POWER STEERING OR POWER BRAKES. IT HAS DUAL EXHAUST WITH THE FACTORY EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. THE ENGINE STILL HAS THE ORGINAL YELLOW VALVE COVERS AND AIR CLE ANER. THE ODOMETER SHOWS 75000 BUT I AM SURE ITS OVER 100000. THE MILEAGE ON TITLE IS EXEMPT.

THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES FINE. IF I WAS TO DO ANYTHING TO THE CAR, I WOULD PROBABLY REPLACE THE REAR WINDOW GLASS SEAL. IN FIFTY YEARS ITS STARTING TO DRY OUT BUT NEVERED WORRIED ABOUT IT CAUSE THE CAR SITS IN THE GARAGE. I WOULD LIKE TO SELL THE CAR BUT IN NO WAY GIVE IT AWAY. THESE CARS ARE GETTING HARD TO FIND LET ALONE ONES THAT ARE NOT ALL RUSTED UP. THIS CAR IS 49 YEARS OLD SO IT IS FAR FROM NEW. ITS A DECENT OLD CAR.

ANY QUESTIONS EMAIL ME AND I WILL ANSWER THEM.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!

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:

Has the Mercury Marauder gotten better with age?

Fri, Oct 23 2015

In the early 2000s Mercury desperately wanted to develop some edge for its brand – seemingly stuck between a quasi-premium, quasi-performance space in the Ford Universe. The Marauder is perhaps the most famous of the vehicles that resulted from those efforts, and is rapidly approaching Modern Classic status, today. Effectively a murdered out Grand Marquis with some updated trim pieces Â– what are company parts bins for, if not raiding? Â– the Marauder looked convincingly like a bad guy car. The 4.6-liter V8 under its hood that had been breathed on by engineers for a little more power, kicking out 302 horsepower and 318 pound-feet of torque from the factory. Not exactly Ferrari-baiting numbers, but it'd give your local cop's car a run for its money. Being a wild child of the last decade, of course our friends at MotorWeek had it on the program. What better way to test your mean-mugging muscle sedan than with John Davis' tanned and steady hands?
