DOUBLE THE MUSCLE!
I am uping the ante, and now selling BOTH of my 1968 Mercury Cougar Coupes BOTH numbers matching V8 302 engines. BOTH have the C4 Automatic Transmission, and Factory Disk Brakes, Factory Power Steering, Factory A/C. I am liquidating ALL of my Cougar parts as well! This includes extra front and rear windows, side windows, extra fenders, extra set of bumpers, extra set of hideaway light housings,extra set of Magnum rims, extra set of hubcaps.There is soooo much more that I cannot list it all. Both have factory Power Steering, Power brakes, and the factory A/C components are there ( though not hooked up). The Black Cougar Odometer says 21219, but probably has turned over. The Green Cougar has only 53K original miles. The engine is safely stored away outside of the car I have both original purchase booklets for the cars when they left their lots. Several manuals and magazines including the original CAR and DRIVER that featured the review of the 1st Cougars! The Black Cougar has the internal body has been sprayed with a form of Rhino Lining, and the outside bodywork had the standard marker lights shaved off to give it a meaner, sleeker look. The fenders look clean and The engine has been cleaned up, painted, and new plugs/wires/distributor. Cleaned and reinstalled the Holley carburetor. New Alternator Belt Vacuum lines rerun New Battery New Headlight Switch New Brake Switch New Accelerator Pump New Brake Booster New Master Cylinder New Fuel Tank New Fuel Sending unit The Green Cougar has a very straight body and near ZERO rust. Front hood and rear trunk are in great shape. The floorboards are awesome! Since it was disassembled for painting, several pieces were bought NEW and just waiting to be put in. Pieces include NEW Windshields, NEW carpet kit, NEW front and rear seats, New Power steering hoses, New rubbers, New Vinyl for the Landau Top, and MORE! The engine was removed in order to repaint and recondition, and I have extra set of cylinder heads with extra push-rods, and rockers. Engine is being stored safe and sound in my shed to keep the elements away from it. Lots of extra badges as well. I hate to part with them, but I have to condense my project inventory. You can see the first Cougar restoration process at the Classic Cougar Community site in the Project Forum under the "Twins in Cougartown" heading. I have several extra pieces that will further complete the car to full restoration, and give options to alter the look of the car, or you can resell for more cash. The body is black matte primer, so you can simply drive into the paint shop and pick your color. The remaining components needing troubleshooting are Turn Signals (original sequential lights aren't responding.. I am not an electrician..but there are 3 sets of Sequential Signal components.) Front Seats are worn (they are over 50 years old!) A/C needs to be hooked up, flushed, and charged... There are LOTS of pictures so I just included as many as Ebay will allow. But I will send any pictures you wish to see of any parts, pieces, or car sections. The NADA had listed these cars Style/Year/Engine/Options at Poor Condition -$12k Good Condition - $20K Excellent Condition - $33K ..and you will have 2.. |

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.
Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
Junkyard Gem: 1973 Mercury Montego MX Brougham Sawzall Convertible Edition
Fri, Apr 21 2017You know how it goes— the weather is warm, you want to do some top-down driving, and you lack a proper convertible... but you do have a hooptie Detroit car on one side of the garage and a big ol' Sawzall on the other. Put the two together and you have a Sawzall Convertible, which generally lasts for about one summer before it gets scrapped. Here's a fine example of such a car, photographed in a San Francisco Bay Area self-service junkyard. Most Sawzall Convertibles (yes, it should be called a roadster, but nobody does that) have raw, ragged metal edges, or maybe duct tape over the stumps of the amputated pillars, but someone went to the trouble to weld nice smooth metal covers over the hackage on this one. The windshield is gone. Instead, the windshield frame is ringed by tongue depressors held in place by gooey roofing tar. No, we don't know why. The Montego MX Brougham was a hot-selling personal luxury coupe in its day, selling for $3,041 in 1973. That's just under $17,000 in 2017 dollars. It must have been fun, cruising this thing on Bay Area streets with no roof and a rattle-can spray-bomb job. This one has the optional 400-cubic-inch V8 engine, rated at 171 horsepower. What would this car's original buyer have thought of its fate? This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
