Here is a great little car that I would trust to go anywhere in the USA. This is my wife's daily driver and she loves the attention she gets driving it. It has way to many new parts to mention. The paint is a Pearl White that is 5 years old. It was a cloudy day and pictures don't do justice. The body does have a few places coming thru the paint but barely noticeable. I am selling at half the cost of the paint job because I must. It is a 1981 Ford Granada GL that I have cloned into a 1981 Mercury Cougar Bostonian because the body style is the same and I liked the Cougars. It is equipped with power brakes, power steering, air conditioning (needs a low pressure hose because it split), hard to find part. It worked great till that happened. Comes with a working AM/FM/ 8 Track Stereo. I will give buyer a few 8 track tapes with the purchase. It has a 200 c.i., 6 cylinder engine a C4 automatic transmission. No leaks and uses no oil between oil changes. It has only had 5W30 Valvoline in her since she was new. I have owned this car many, many years and I am the 3rd owner. just a sample of new parts, headliner, u-joints, brakes all around, rear shocks, alternator voltage regulator, all lights and bulbs, radiator, front end alignment, oil change due in 1500 miles. It does need a dash pad, carpet, cruise control diagham, choke adjusted for cold start, runs rough on cold start but smooths out in 3 minutes. A/C hose, and better seat covers. They are good but not original. This is a turn key car. Buy her and drive her home. Drove her to Columbia, S.C. from Indianapolis and cruised at 75mph and no problems and didn't expect any. She is not a show car but has won several awards. Look at the pictures and make up your own mind and e-mail any questions you may have. If you are in the area, come and check her out. Please call 812-508-4893 for more info if needed. She gets right at 22 MPG. Thanks again. ringo46

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Here 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.
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."

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible
Wed, 31 Aug 2011Never 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.
