1967 Mercury Cougar Xr-7 California Black Plate Rust Free / Low Miles No Reserve on 2040-cars
Salem, Oregon, United States
This one checks all the boxes in my book. Xr7 package, AC, PS, PB, No vinyl top, 0 rust ever, full documentation, low miles, VERY original. Runs and drives, thousands in receipts, just needs paint and light assembly. The previous owner attempted to paint it himself and realized he was in over his head. He was a long time customer of ours and asked us to please place it in the right hands. We believe by doing a thorough video on the car someone who sees the potential will act and have a stellar Cougar. I have owned over 1000 Cougars over the last 25 years and am billing this as the best project car I have ever offered up for sale. I am very easy to deal with as we are flexible one when you pay ($500 due immediately after auction close by Paypal or credit card) flexible on when you pick it up (free indoor storage for up to 1 yr.) and we will even take your rusted out parts / project car in trade. We can get it painted by our trusted body man and can do the re-assembly but I will not be part and parcel to any "Quickie" budget paint job. This car should appraise for $30,000.00 when completed and deserves a show quality paint job. Will help with shipping anywhere in the world. If you have any questions not covered in the video please call us at 503-463-1130. This is a no reserve auction and it will be sold no matter what. Don Rush / West Coast Classic Cougar Inc.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
