A TRUE BARN FIND!!! Up for bid is a 1963 Mercury Comet Custom Convertible All original Factory V8 260 CU. 4 Speed, AC !!! The original owner got this car when she was in High School as a gift from her Dad and kept it until I purchased it from her about 2 months ago. Well I have decided to sell it; as much as I would like to keep it and just drive it like it is. The only rust on the car is on the drive side rocker panel. Which is a quick fix and I have another rocker for it, But really doesn't need it. Because I do body work and could fix it in a few hours, but I don't have the time. I pulled all the spark plugs out and shot some WD40 and Tranny fluid in each cylinder put the plugs back in and let it sit for about two weeks, I then took the plugs out again and turned the motor over by hand and it was free!!! I put the plugs back in it and put a battery in it and it turned right over. The Original owner parked the car because she bought a new one and would only drive the car about once a month and it ran when it was last parked for good in the early 90's. I have the original PINK slip and original owners manual, original keys along with the original registration slips that she gave me and she was going to give me all the service records for the car as soon as she could find them because it was always serviced by the dealership. It does need to have the brakes rebuilt because they no longer work. But has all of the original hub caps rims and some extra parts because her Dad had also bought a 63 Mercury Comet hardtop at the same time he bought this convertible and the hardtop was wrecked and he stripped some parts off of it and saved them, so there are extra moldings and extra radiator. that will go with the car. This was the first year that Mecury Comet came with a V8 and 4 speed with AC and convertible!!! Very low number of these cars were produced with these options....   Thank you for looking and God bless!!!

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.

More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags

Thu, Jan 12 2017

The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
