This beautiful 1966 Mercury Comet GT has been carefully restored to its original specs. This is believed to be the original 390/335hp numbers matching V-8 engine and C-6 automatic transmission, with power steering and factory type A/C. The attention to detail has been outstanding throughout this restoration process. The interior is in great shape with no rips or tears anywhere. The headliner is tight and the door panels, seats, and dash are like new. There is a Pioneer am/fm/cd stereo mounted in the glove box area with a remote control. This car drives tremendously well and the air blows cold as it should. The engine compartment looks exceptional with all new wires, hoses, belts and chrome valve covers and air cleaner. This car needs nothing mechanically or otherwise, it is ready to be enjoyed from the minute you purchase it. Check out the trunk space. The spare tire, jack and wrench is properly held in place and the floor is covered with a factory like mat. The undercarriage will speak wonders for how solid and rust free this car really is. The floor pans look amazing. It has Flowmaster dual exhaust from the manifolds back. This car rides better than you would expect on this new set of Firestone red line tires mounted on factory wheels. This is a great deal for this true 66 Comet GT classic car.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
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.
