San Diego, California, United States

$500 deposit due right after the auction ends. No zero rated bidders. This is a very original 1969 Mercury Cougar XR7. Factory original 351ci engine and FMX automatic transmission with 3.00 rear axle. Factory Air Conditioning and all of the components are in place. The original carb was rebuilt earlier this year. It starts up good, runs smoothly and idles good. The Bright Blue (code 6) body has all the original panels and it has never been painted, plus it is very straight and clean overall as shown. The transmission shifts into the gears as it should with no known issues. The power brakes stop fine. This has not been on the road in a couple years. It has been lot driven but that is it. Also I have not cleaned out the gas tank so I have it running off fresh fuel under the hood. The electronics work, as do the lights. The headlight doors close when you start it and slowly open awhile after turning it off.
I was going to have this XR7 painted but I have been too busy with other things. The interior is original and in place. Trunk is solid. The floors are very clean and solid. I have a clean pink California title with it. No accidents ever and all the panels are completely original. This is for NON California residents only, otherwise a CA buyer will have a rebuilt title after it processes. Any other state it will retain its clean title and its also clear/clean for export. International buyers accepted. I have described it the best I can and I took 40 pictures to show it better than words can describe. It has the original data under the hood with the vin that matches the vin plate on the door. All questions will be answered.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
Report: Lincoln getting all of Mercury's ad dollars
Mon, 03 Jan 2011Now that the curtain has closed on Mercury, Ford Motor Company will redirect all of its marketing dollars for the oft-overlooked brand to the Blue Oval's luxury outpost, Lincoln. In speaking to Automotive News, the chairman of the Lincoln National Dealer Council, Bob Tasca, Jr., said, "You'll see a lot stronger presence in the advertising of Lincoln in 2011."
Lincoln spokesperson Christian Bokich reminded AN that the automaker is "preparing the way for seven new or significantly refreshed vehicles" that will be launched over the next four years, and the largest ad blitz in 2011 will focus on the refreshed MKX crossover, as well as the MKZ sedan and its hybrid counterpart. Following that, Lincoln has plans to launch a completely overhauled version of its Navigator SUV, an all-new C-segment vehicle and the overhauled 2013 MKZ, which Tasca says will be "strikingly different from its Ford Fusion sibling."

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
