1962 Mercury Monterey Custom 2-door Coupe ***rare Find*** on 2040-cars
Ventura, California, United States
|
Local Buyer fell through, so here's another shot at this very rare, very cool 1962 Mercury Monterey Custom Coupe.
If your looking to restore a classic that's very unique and not the typical car at a show, then this is it. As much as I'd love to bring this car back to it's former glory, I'm buried in another project that I need to fund. The car fires right up, but needs a few things to get it on the road safely. Here's some details: Clean CA Title Current registration Original A/C Car with all components still in place!!!!!! Original 352ci Mercury Motor/Automatic Trans ***Starts Right Up!*** I have video of car running. New Spark Plugs New Battery New Fuel Filter New Plug Wires New Cap/Rotor New Intake Filter New Fuel Pump New Fuel Tank Power Brakes Glasspack Dual Exhaust 20" Boss Chrome Rims with 35 series tires in good shape All Original Exterior Trim Present, minus mirrors and antenna Most of the trim in good shape Body Straight Comes with new, but not put on yet: 4 - new headlights New Headlight harness New Tail light lens New Window Weatherstrip Seals New Window Felts NOS key blanks New Truck lock cylinder New reproduction manual The car is definitely still a project that will need restoration, but won't take much to get it on the road, while you restore. Currently it fires right up, will drive and stop, but needs minor carb tuning, new cooling hoses, belts, brake adjusting, etc. Does have some minor rust here and there, but nothing extreme. Surface rust on the floor pans, with a couple of small (Half Dollar) sized hole in drives side pan that will need to be patched, small hole (Penny Size) on passenger pan. Same with the trunk. Rust bubbles on passenger wheel well and behind bumpers. Surface rust around the exterior, but nothing that can't be sanded and sealed. I've tried to include picture of the pans. All pics, except the a couple of the motor we're take 05/12/14. The motor pics were taken two weeks prior, before the fuel pump was replaced. Needs full interior restoration. Interior is all there, but will need to be redone. Overall this car is definitely going to be a very high dollar, rare classic that turns heads as it sits now. If your looking for something different that will set you apart from the crowd, then this is it. Perfect build that the whole family can enjoy. |

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
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.
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.
