1969 Mercury Cougar Convertible on 2040-cars
Raymore, Missouri, United States
|
Thank you for looking at my 1969 Mercury Cougar convertible. The car has all original sheet metal and as near rust free of a 60's car as I've ever had. The car was always a Southern car and was originally Wimbledon White. The underneath is still the factory white (see the pictures). At some point, many years ago, the Cougar was painted red. The exterior had a few very small areas of the beginning of rust and you can see where the body shop cut it out the small areas. The car comes mostly complete and with new parts (see the pictures). The front and rear bumpers are included. Some of the original engine parts and all the glass is included as well. The Cougar is an original 351 V8 Four Barrel car. The Cougar DOES NOT need floor pans nor a trunk pan nor shock towers (see pictures). They are almost as solid and original as they were in 1969!
I purchased the car in Mississippi at a body shop after the customer didn't pay for the start of the restoration. There's no motor and trans. The machine shop kept them both for an unpaid bill as well. The owner of the body shop sold me the Cougar with the intention of filing for a lien title in the state of Mississippi, but I never received a title as promised. In Missouri we can file for an Abandonment Title, but I haven't gotten around to doing so. My loss is your gain. I have no time to complete the present projects I started years ago. It'll take me years just to even complete the projects I have already started. Please email and or call with any questions. Thank you, Chris 816.590.7660 |

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The 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 recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford 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.
