This vehicle has been stored in a garage for the past 20 years. Only 3 spots of rust evident, around the rear wheels (see pictures). Now that replacement panels are available for these sections of the rear quarters this repair is straight-forward. The previous owner cut out the rust on the driver side; the rust on the passenger side is minimal. The rest of the car is rust free, no rust in the frame, doors, trunk, trunk lid, tail panel, roof, rear valence, hood, or front fenders. I did notice a rust hole on the driver side rear quarter panel around the wheel well, probably sits under the GT side trim, very small and appears to be superficial. Torque boxes and floor pans are great. There are four quarter inch holes in the roof just above the rear window where someone attempted to mount a rear set of louvers. As you can see in the pictures the car comes with both front and rear bumpers with brackets. The front grille is complete and almost flawless, but there is a piece of the black louvered plastic missing that is less than 2 inches long x half inch tall just behind the gun sight, should be easy to fix. The car includes all of the hard to get and correct parts to install power disc brakes and power steering (correct steering box, brake pedal, power brake booster, spindles, steering control valve and slave cylinder, brake proportioning valve). The car also comes with the spring loaded rear license plate bracket in excellent condition. Fender caps all around are in great condition. Car includes parts stacked on the hood and roof and on the floor (drive shaft, valve covers, hub caps, D0OE radiator) as shown in pictures. Does not include windshield seen in picture with bumpers. There is also a 351 cleveland block in the engine compartment, but it is not original to the car, no transmission in the car. Mileage listed above was only entered to satisfy eBay, mileage is unknown.

Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute
Thu, 24 Feb 2011Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.
Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

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.
