 1967 Cougar GT, this is a high option car that is very original and is a black plate California car with the old California title. The factory options include 390 320HP S code engine, automatic transmission, p/s, pdb, air conditioning, tilt steering, bench seat and more(see marti report attached). This is a running project car that I have driven a short distance down the street but in no way should be considered a driver unless some more work is done. The car has been sitting since around 1986. It will need brake work, fuel sender and/or a tank to be safe(may have scale in it after sitting so long) along with other items like tires. The transmission goes right into gear and shifts well, the power steering worked well and seemed really tight for a car of this age. The odometer shows 94K miles and although I have no documentation based on my experience with these cars seems about right. The tilt steering column is nice and tight moving up and down, the tilt away function is not working right now. The air conditioning is complete but we removed the belt as it also runs the smog pump which has seized from sitting. The turn signals do not work as the sequencer box has been removed, all plug ends are present so it should be plug and play. The dash lights for the turn signals come on so the power should be there for it. The original exhaust system with the transverse muffler(stamped FOMOCO with the C7Z part #) is still on the car and in very good condition , there are some small holes in the resonators and one in one tailpipe, the exhaust is very quiet. The engine has a lifter tick that may clear up with more run time but may need some cleaner run through it, who knows, it has sat for a long period. The shocks appear to be the originals, they are stamped AUTOLITE and are black.  The top has some rust from the original vinyl top. The rust seems to be along the where the seams were in the vinyl just to each side of center. The edges and around the windows look to be nice still so I believe it to be a fairly easy fix, especially if you are putting another vinyl top on it.The qtrs are really nice except for a dent on each side at the lower valance, no bubbles that I have found on either of them.The leak from the top has rusted the passenger floor, mostly in the front but also some in the rear. I would put a full length unit on that side. On the lift the rest of the underside looks very solid and original. The front door corners are bubbled like usual and there is some rust around each the plug on each side of the trunk floor, very easy fix. When I got it the original trunk mat and sound pad were in there and trapped some moisture. The rest of the trunk floor looks good.  If you are looking for a Cougar project this is a good one to do, high options and very solid. Feel free to ask any questions before bidding. If you need additional pics I have them, ebay only allows 24 so feel free to ask, I have some pics of the muffler with the part # clearly visible, this should be the same as a 1967 GT500 if I am not mistaken. My phone # is 425-308-0802 if you have any questions and are serious about the car.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output

Mon, Jan 6 2014

How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
