Lima, Ohio, United States

 Car is in great overall shape, it does have a crack on the front bumper and rear bumper, and the rf headlight/ fender is scratched. The rr quarter panel is also scratched.  The interior is in great shape, this car is rare for its bucket seats and console shifter like the Maurader's have. This is not one though. Tires have 7/32nds of tread, they are Goodyear Assurance tripletred tires. This car also comes with 2 snow tires that have 6/32nds of tread. This car runs fantastic, strong engine, and has been well maintained. The oil is changed every 3,000 miles with Valvoline Maxlife, and has always seen a Motorcraft oil filter. The plugs were changed at 120,000 with Motorcraft, and it has a newer belt/tensioner/alternator and battery. The steering shaft was recently replaced due to bad u-joints. this car is not perfect, but I would rate it a 7 out of 10. Mainly because of cosmetic defects with the exterior. I am the second owner, the previous owner was an elderly couple who drove it back and forth to Florida every season. I purchased this car from a Lincoln/Mercury dealer a few years back as a certified Pre-owned.  This car came equipped with the rear air springs which have been removed and replaced with regular coil springs. The air suspension is disabled, but the light on the dash remains. This vehicle is for pickup only. Buyer is responsible for shipping. $500 non-refundable deposit required within 48 hours of winning. Cash or money order to pay the balance in person upon pick-up.  The reserve is well below KBB value.  Thank you for looking!

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.

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.

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.
