1958 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser- The Mercury Turnpike Cruiser was the flagship
1957 to 1958. They are best known for the unique styling cues and wide array of gadgets including a "Breezeway" power rear window that could be lowered to improve ventilation, "twin jet" air intakes at upper corners of car's windshield. Has the optional 430 Cu in Marauder V8 with Four barrel carb rated for 360HP. The transmission shifter is unique to these vehicles due to the push button design. This car is all original matching numbers never messed with but was repainted in the 70's sometime. This one has the desired Cruising range and high performance range.Has fully operational power windows all around. This Merc is a two owner car and has been owned by my father since 1960. Garage kept its whole life. Last registered in 2009 but ran regularly and yard driven. Hate to part with a vehicle with so much history but his priorities have moved away from this and are focused on the new to him 1923 Model T touring car. This car is clean and can be daily driven. This is by all means not a museum peace but has won its share of trophies at car shows. With a little work this could really be a mint car. Hagerty shows these Mercs in same condition as valued at 16,000$ Will consider trades for a Model TT, AA, or BB Ford truck or Original non hotrodded Model A Sedans or 1932 - 35 Ford V8 cars. 500$ due within 24 hours of auction close. Rest due on pickup or within 7 days. There is no rush to get this car out of my garage so storage may be arraigned. Local pickup or delivery within 100 miles. Can be driven home |

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
