DOUBLE THE MUSCLE!
I am uping the ante, and now selling BOTH of my 1968 Mercury Cougar Coupes BOTH numbers matching V8 302 engines. BOTH have the C4 Automatic Transmission, and Factory Disk Brakes, Factory Power Steering, Factory A/C. I am liquidating ALL of my Cougar parts as well! This includes extra front and rear windows, side windows, extra fenders, extra set of bumpers, extra set of hideaway light housings,extra set of Magnum rims, extra set of hubcaps.There is soooo much more that I cannot list it all. Both have factory Power Steering, Power brakes, and the factory A/C components are there ( though not hooked up). The Black Cougar Odometer says 21219, but probably has turned over. The Green Cougar has only 53K original miles. The engine is safely stored away outside of the car I have both original purchase booklets for the cars when they left their lots. Several manuals and magazines including the original CAR and DRIVER that featured the review of the 1st Cougars! The Black Cougar has the internal body has been sprayed with a form of Rhino Lining, and the outside bodywork had the standard marker lights shaved off to give it a meaner, sleeker look. The fenders look clean and The engine has been cleaned up, painted, and new plugs/wires/distributor. Cleaned and reinstalled the Holley carburetor. New Alternator Belt Vacuum lines rerun New Battery New Headlight Switch New Brake Switch New Accelerator Pump New Brake Booster New Master Cylinder New Fuel Tank New Fuel Sending unit The Green Cougar has a very straight body and near ZERO rust. Front hood and rear trunk are in great shape. The floorboards are awesome! Since it was disassembled for painting, several pieces were bought NEW and just waiting to be put in. Pieces include NEW Windshields, NEW carpet kit, NEW front and rear seats, New Power steering hoses, New rubbers, New Vinyl for the Landau Top, and MORE! The engine was removed in order to repaint and recondition, and I have extra set of cylinder heads with extra push-rods, and rockers. Engine is being stored safe and sound in my shed to keep the elements away from it. Lots of extra badges as well. I hate to part with them, but I have to condense my project inventory. You can see the first Cougar restoration process at the Classic Cougar Community site in the Project Forum under the "Twins in Cougartown" heading. I have several extra pieces that will further complete the car to full restoration, and give options to alter the look of the car, or you can resell for more cash. The body is black matte primer, so you can simply drive into the paint shop and pick your color. The remaining components needing troubleshooting are Turn Signals (original sequential lights aren't responding.. I am not an electrician..but there are 3 sets of Sequential Signal components.) Front Seats are worn (they are over 50 years old!) A/C needs to be hooked up, flushed, and charged... There are LOTS of pictures so I just included as many as Ebay will allow. But I will send any pictures you wish to see of any parts, pieces, or car sections. The NADA had listed these cars Style/Year/Engine/Options at Poor Condition -$12k Good Condition - $20K Excellent Condition - $33K ..and you will have 2.. |

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.
NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A 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.
