This is an original numbers matching car. I have the Marti report on her and she is one of 21 cars built with the options she has. She was born in Michigan, was sold in a dealership in Atlanta and spend most of its life in California where I bought her from 18 months ago.

This cat purrrrs with only 72,000 original miles on her. The 351 Windsor engine and FMX transmission and Eliminator heavy duty suspension were rebuilt by the prior owner. Car was originally white but when restored was painted with care to the beautiful bright blue you see today. I believe it’s called competition blue. She is an original A/C car and I just redid the A/C with all new components at the cost of $3,000. I have a thick file of receipts totaling $22,000.00 NOT INCLUDING COST OF CAR! For you Cougar enthusiasts this is a rare car and the one to own!

Amazing condition, this is an all metal car NO BONDO. New top and rebuilt power top motor operate perfectly. She has functional working hide-away headlights and sequential tail lights. I just replaced the actuators on headlights. Speedo, gas gauges, windshield wipers, stereo, dashboard lights, door lights, reverse lights and even the cigarette lighter work! Has the rare Rimblo steering wheel and eliminator suspension. Just did a wheel alignment and put on 2 new tires. Drives and runs excellent.This is one of the best 69's you will find out there.  

ENGINE- REBUITMatching Numbers 351 CI & WAS FULLY REBUILT (LESS THAN 600 MI ) and Matching Numbers FMX TRANSMISSION  WHICH PROVIDES THIS RIDE WITH MORE THAN ENOUGH POWER FOR THIS DAILY DRIVER AND IS EXCELLENT ON THE HIGHWAY. GEARS ARE ORIGINAL AND PERFECT FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING OR CRUISING AROUND TOWN. THE CAR HAS POWER STEERING & NEW DUAL EXHAUST. THERE IS A NEW BATTERY AS WELL AS A REBUILT STARTER. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL.

INTERIOR- THE INSIDE IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NEW CARPETING AND THE RARE / EXPENSIVE RIMBLO STEERING WHEEL FINISH OFF THE INTERIOR. ORIGINAL STEREO SYSTEM IS INSTALLED AND WORKING WITH NEW SPEAKERS. NEEDS SOUND RESISTOR

ELECTRONICS-  HEADLIGHTS, TAIL LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, WIPERS, GAS GAUGE, SPEEDOMETER, INTERIOR LIGHTS, REVERSE LIGHTS & CIGARETTE LIGHTER WORK. Original STEREO SYSTEM & NEW RFID STARTER KILL.HORN IS NOT HOOKED UP. ORIGINAL A/C CAR THAT IS WORKING PERFECTLY WITH NEW CONDENSER, COMPRESSOR, POA VALVE ETC

RIMS & TIRES- THE CAR HAS NICE SETS OF STOCK RIMS.

EXTERIOR- BEAUTIFUL NEW COMPETITION BLUE PAINT JOB W BLACK HOOD SCOOP AND ELIMINATOR TAIL-FIN. NEW TOP AND POWER TOP MOTOR INSTALLED AS WELL. CHROME IS IN GREAT SHAPE BUT NOT PERFECT. GLASS IS GREAT TOO JUST NEEDS SLIGHT ALIGNMENT.

KEEP IN MIND THE CAR IS 42 YRS OLD AND ALTHOUGH BEAUTIFUL SHE IS BEING SOLD AS-IS WITH NO WARRANTY. I ALWAYS SUGGEST COMING TO SEE THE CAR IF POSSIBLE.

SHIPPING- Cost and coordination is responsibility of the buyer. I am happy to assist where and how I can and even happy to refer guys I have used to transport but again all cost and responsibility is buyers.

Lastly I might not be a high volume Ebay member but I have perfect feedback for a reason. I don't do wrong by anyone! If you are a scammer please move on. I will allow for international buyers but cash or a wire must clear before pick up. I do have another car for sale but I am NOT a broker. Just letting go of of some of my toys. I am not hurting for cash nor am I in a rush. Not interested ina trade for a motorcycle or a boat!

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:

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible

Wed, 31 Aug 2011

Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
