Completely restored 1967 mercury cougar xr7 one of a kind show winner.

                I have spent the last 8 years and a lot of money completing the following;

                THE DRIVE TRAIN; custom built 347 ci stroker motor with roller cam, 750 cfm 4150hp Holley carb, msd pro billet distributer w/msd 6al ignition system, all brackets are custom 1 of a kind hand  made out of billet aluminum, utilizing a gm thermostat housing , gm power steering pump, a gm 1 wire alternator. All power is transmitted through a ford top loader 4 spd w/Hurst shifter connected to a custom built ford 9 inch rear end w/3.55 gear. The exhaust system starts with hooker headers which have ball flanges added and have been ceramic coated, tig welded to stainless steel magnaflow  x pipe the and exits through the magnaflow system, producing the most awesome sound you will ever hear.

                THE SUSPENSION; the rear suspension has new leaf springs w/ an extra leaf added and a additional inch of arch, new shocks and all bushings, hooks up very well and has no wheel hop. The front suspension has new springs and shocks and a 1 inch sway bar that almost eliminates all body roll, this car corners like its on rails.

                THE BRAKES; 4 wheel power disc brakes bring this monster to a grinding halt with no effort. The front brakes are from a 1978 ford Granada all new. The rear brakes are from a 1996 ford explorer also all new.

                THE LIGHTING; the sequential turn signals work very well, was upgraded to electronic version but the mechanical assembly comes with the car. The vacuum head lamps work, but not very well since the vacuum reservoir has been greatly reduced and the large cam reduces engine vacuum.

                THE INTERIOR; is almost completely original all was either died or recovered, the car was originally an automatic car but no wholes were cut and the factory consol was added. A USA 230 from classic stereos was added (no cutting) w/usb and I pod attachments the front seats were recovered (not very well) and the car comes with a set of hi backs that need recovered. Has new carpet and front kick panels w/ speakers. The head liner has a small hole above driver’s sun visor.

                THE BODY; has new fender aprons front and rear the core support was laid back 1 inch at the top to facilitate the installation of a electric cooling fan, all the wheel moldings and bumpers and door handles were replaced with re chromed or new have originals that go with the car. A few of the chrome trim pieces have small dings. Has a 1969 mustang rear spoiler and hood scoop. Has 2011 camaro gray metallic paint with black strips the c strip was modeled after the mustang and the xr7 logo was stenciled into the stripe; this was all done in paint under the clear (no stickers).

                OTHER STUFF; all lines and hoses were replaced with new and sure grip gates heat shrink hose clamps were used that work very well, new gas tank and sending unit, the battery tray was custom built for a 75 series gm side post battery. The horn button was shaved 2 inches as to not be ugly. This car looks great driving down the road gets all kinds of attention at the shows and runs and drives every bit as good.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.

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.
