1969 Cougar Xr7 Cobra Jet " Barn Find" Project Car!!! on 2040-cars
Santa Clara, Utah, United States
Was a loaded Cougar Xr7 Cobra Jet 428 Ram Air. HAD air, power steering, tilt wheel, power windows,
Console, AM/8-track, vinyl top.1 of 365 with these engine, transmission codes. Was a neat car! What you see is what is there. It is missing disc brakes, power booster, no motor or trans. It does have the original vin numbers on front aprons and vin tag. The body is in very good shape, floor pans and trunk. It has been a desert car since new. See Marti report. Has been in St. George Utah since very early 70's. The dash has sun damage. The interior was black leather. Car needs everything. They usually do. A parts car would be a plus. The positive is that it is a real Cobra Jet ram air car loaded to the gills. Invest the time and $$$ and have a nifty example of 1 of the legendary muscle cars. Build it your own way. It is a "R" code so the value will be protected. The reserve is correct for what it is, what it was and what it could be. Restore and build it right and you will have a nicer better driving car that the typical Camaro. Don't hesitate to ask questions!!! It will have to be picked up. If you can, come see it in person. It needs lots of love. |

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill 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!
