1964 Mercury Cyclone Base 4.7l on 2040-cars
Salinas, California, United States
|
1964 Comet Cyclone: Only
7,454 of these were made. Only one year of this body style was ever
built. This car's Data Plate: 63E
(2dr.Cyclone) J(Carnival Red) 05 (White interior) A28 (Jan.28 build)
22 (Dallas Texas) 1 (310 to 1) 6 (3 Speed Automatic) Car runs & drives like
new. Engine & 3 speed auto transmission were rebuilt. Exhaust is new
with stainless mufflers and tips, fabulous sound. List of things done is
endless but include: Petronics, tires, brakes & lines, radiator & shroud,
heater core, halogen headlights, belts, hoses, generator, regulator,
brake solenoid, seat belts, battery, +more. Undercarriage was so
excellent that it has been cleaned and painted. You'll be impressed
with detailing and overall integrity of the lines and body. Older paint buffed
to a beautiful luster- not perfect but is excellent and gets a ton of
compliments. Chrome in excellent condition and the front bumper may
have been re-chromed. Back bumper is very nice original. Original headliner.
Door & trunk gaskets have been replaced. Interior is excellent having been
reupholstered at some point and shows very little wear. Title and
odometer show that the car has 54k miles and it looks and feels believable,
although I would not represent a car this old as original miles. A rust free,
drive anywhere no-nonsense car that is as unique and beautiful. Carnival
Red color is really rich, and has various looks depending on
the light as you can see from the pictures. If you are looking for a car that will stand out in any meet or show, this is one to be proud of. You will, more than likely not see others in this kind of condition. The car is being sold where is, as-is with no warrantee expressed or implied. I recommend you come see it prior to bidding. The car for sale locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time prior to it hitting my reserve. Everything but the tachometer and cigarette lighter works including the AM radio.
Looks to be a non matching 289 2 BBl. It makes sense that it's
a 289 because it is very quick off the line, and on the highway.
People who have looked at the pictures say they "know" it is a 289ci,
but doubt it's the original motor as the color is wrong. I don't know
either way, and said that in the ad that it is probably a (NOM) non-matching
number. I've been told that you need to take the starter out to check the
numbers, and I'm not going to do that at this point. So assume it's not
the original motor in bidding. Original manifolds. It does not have headers. It's a great car, but if you are looking for a pure matching number Cyclone, this is more than likely not for you. Also included is a set of poverty caps.

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.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
