All original 82 Cougar XR7 Coupe. 65000 original miles. Auto with overdrive. Power locks. Working Cruise control. AC but needs charged. Power seats. Body in good shape rust and dent free. Few small door dings as expected with original older car. Recently rebuilt 2 barrel carb. Runs drives good. Could use an alignment and or new front brake rotors (has shimmy when braking hard). Was parked for a long time and fuel filter had plugged. New fuel filter installed, but something to keep eye on in the future. Exhaust needs extended. Nice, clean interior, but headliner is sagging. Asking $2000 obo Call or txt 605-580-1504 for more info.
Everything I can think of that the car may need: alignment, front brake rotors, headliner tightened or repaired, AC charge, minor exhaust work (existing exhaust needs extended it's too short). Low book over $2100 and average over $5100, not even considering the low original mileage, accident free, rust free, and dent free. Prior to my ownership, one owner family. Car even has original factory build sheet in the glove box, but not original window sticker.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

Thu, Jan 12 2017The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected.

Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags.

If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
