You are bidding on a Super Rare 1962 Mercury Comet villager wagon barn find!. This is a two owner California car. Pulled out of california back in april 2014! A doctors wife owned the car until 2006. All the registration cards were in the car from 1962 to the 80s. I have the original pink title from 1962 also! Its a 53,000 mile car that runs and drives! its pretty much 100% original. Car has air conditioning, 6 cyl. No accidents. has original exhuast. Car is 98% rust free and the most major rust is on the cowl panel along the firewall. I have a complete cowl but it very easily could be fixed. Car fires right up and purs like a kitten! The underneath of the car was stripped of its paint to be undercoated. It was treated and it is unbelievable how nice it is. The out side of the car is all original paint except for bottom halfs of both fenders as i believe someone sprayed some paint of some sort on them. There were only 2300 Villager wagons made in 1962 and i would imagine you will be hard pressed to find one this nice, one with a roof rack and ac and this nice

The body has a couple dents here and there, car obviously needs a restoration but is amazingly clean. glass is really nice, all the wood grain trim is there, mostly in very good condition and very restore able, interior is very nice. Has new carpet. Floor boards are amazing and in great condition. I think the battery box, the c on hood and the two pieces on top of the front fenders are the only items missing. Has a new antenna mast for it. ac unit says mercury on it, Has the rear wheel covers also. 

good luck!!!!!!!

CAR IS LISTED LOCALLY AS WELL I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION AT ANY TIME! Deposit is non refundable so if you bid and win you are responsible for the deposit and paying for the car! 

Thanks

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 recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
