1946 Mercury coupe clear ohio title notarized and ready to be signed over. Flathead v8 turns over but backfires when attempting to start, that's all I know about the engine condition. Im not sure if its a timing issue, valve issue, or maybe compression? Car would be a good winter project. It is fairly solid but will require some patches on the driver side floor as well as some of the lower areas of the car. Doors close nicely without sagging. Mostly complete so it could be restored.or build a rat rod. car has a nice patina. Would make a cool survivor style driver. The nearly impossible to find grill and dash is intact. I noticed that it has a different rear bumper, the driver side door trim doesn't match the rest( I assume its a ford trim pc). also the running boards have been replaced with ford coupe running boards but I do have the Mercury trim that can be swapped. radiator has a dent from a barn beam that fell on the old hood at some point during its years of storage. current hood is from Nebraska and is very nice(cost was $300) I removed the old hood hinges and they are in the trunk. It appears that a backyard bodyman pop riveted some tin inside of the rear wheel wells in an attempt to make inner fenders liners, I have taken photos from inside the trunk to show that the tin on the bottom wasn't hiding anything major. I have too many projects and could use the some cash to complete some of the ones that are further along. I don't want to see this car sit outside all winter. please don't bid if you don't intend to buy. email me with any questions or to set up a time to view it before bidding if you would like. buyer is responsible for picking up the vehicle. I live in the country so the car can be stored for awhile until shipping can be arranged AS LONG AS IT IS PAID IN FULL first. I will gladly assist with loading.

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday

Mon, 04 Oct 2010

Ford 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.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The 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.

Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute

Thu, 24 Feb 2011

Bugatti 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.
