Here is a rare opportunity to own an entirely original 1967 Cougar GT “SURVIVOR.”
      The car is nicely equipped from the factory with the GT Equipment Group, a 390-4 engine, air-conditioning, Tilt-Away steering wheel, and lots more. All of this is documented by the Marti Report.
     The car was originally a California Car and it still retains the functioning “smog pump.” The fact that it was a California car for much of its life would help to explain the rust-free original condition.
     As a “survivor” the car is in very good original, but one should not expect a “survivor” to be in concours condition. The car is in a condition commensurate with a vehicle that has been well taken care of, but it is original, so it shows the minor wear and tear that one would expect of a car that is 46 years old.
     Mechanically the car is in great shape. The engine runs beautifully and the car runs and drives as it should. Even the air-conditioning works. It has recently been serviced including a tune-up, fluids changed, and the air-conditioning charged.
     The interior is in very good condition showing only minor wear and tear.
     The exterior is also in very good condition. There are some dings and chips, and the paint is “thin” on the hood and some of the horizontal surfaces, but it is original.
     True “survivors” are getting very difficult to find. Not only is this car a true “survivor,” it is a well optioned “Big-Block” Cougar GT.
     Inspections are welcome, and given the nature of “survivors,” recommended. In order to arrange an inspection, please call me at 516-524-4102. Thank you.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

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.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
