1976 Mercury Capri. Interesting Capri. Saw limited time as an Ice Racer #42, The Spanish Red Racer" with AMEC but the RWD was not the best for racing on ice with all other carshaving  front wheel drive. Retired in 2007. Great interior seats  and has the fold down rear seats like a fastback Mustang. Custom Steering wheel. Needs a  good paint job. V-6  2.8 has a mild cam, Offenhauser intake and a Holley carb. Headers and dual exhaust. Also has a five core custom  radiator so would  not overheat when racing. Standard shift with four speed Ford transmission.  Extremely quick and can top 100 miles per hour. Comes with a choice of wheels. Either the 13 " American racing wheels with radial tires or the 13 " MOMOs with Bridgestone/Firestone snow sponge tires. Your choice. Starts and drives very nice. Power steering rebuilt in Florida and new reverse gear in transmission.   Some rust but nothing major as it is a sound car.  Original spare wheel and tire. Had a vinyl top at one time but that has been removed. Also factory sun roof in working order. Registered and inspected in New York. Good luck bidding, Seller  Adding two photos from 2007 at Algonquin Lake in Wells, NY with #42 Steet Legal Unstudded( SLU) with Bridgestone/Firestone Tires.

Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls

Tue, 04 Nov 2014



Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.

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.

This Mercury Cyclone is an American Muscle Car in Norway

Tue, Oct 27 2015

The picturesque Norwegian countryside certainly doesn't seem like the natural stomping grounds for a 1969 Mercury Cyclone, but owner Alexander Brevik makes the odd combo look like an ideal match. Even with the beautiful surroundings, Brevik sees no need to enjoy the scenery; he'd much rather just be driving this vintage muscle car. Take a ride with him in the latest clip from Petrolicious. Like many of us, Brevik's automotive obsession started at childhood, and today he has amassed a multitude of projects to wrench on. While he loves working on all of these cars, we all need a break sometimes, and that's what the Cyclone is for. Even when the rest of his collection isn't running, this orange beauty is always ready to go. Brevik may not pay much attention to the landscape, but Petrolicious makes the muscle car look fantastic in the Norwegian woods nonetheless. With its rumbling V8 engine and three-speed manual, this Cyclone turns out to be a perfect cruising companion in the Land of the Midnight Sun. And if you just can't get enough of classic muscle cars and the people who love them, check out our video coverage of the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise in Detroit down below. Related Video:
