1992 Mercury Grand Marquis "one Owner, Like New 22k Miles". on 2040-cars
Woodstock, Georgia, United States
|
You are
looking at one of the cleanest and nicest cars you will see from the 1990’s
decade. My grandmother purchased this car new in 1992 and was hers until her
recent death. During the time she was here she almost never drove this car, and
it spent most of its time in a garage and under cover. Near the end of her life
she never drove the car, in fact it stayed in the garage untouched for many
years until she passed away and left it to me. I had to transfer the title from
her name to mine during the execution of her will, but since I have put less
than around 50 miles on the car, I still consider it to be a one owner car. This car has
never been wrecked or damaged in any way, never been smoked in, and never been
repainted. The interior is like a new car, with no stains or markings of any
sort. There is no signs of wear anywhere on the seats or carpeting, and as I
said, if it were sent to a detail shop for a professional buffing a detail, you
would think this is a new car. This car is so nice, I had originally wanted to
keep the car for myself and drive it, but due to my lifestyle I have found that
it is just sitting here wasting away in my garage, just like it did at my
grandmother’s house. This is the only reason I am looking at selling this car. Once I took
possession of the car I found there were several issues I needed to address which
are normal for cars which have been sitting for a long period of time. I have
replaced the brakes and rebuilt the calipers on all 4 wheels, replaced the
muffler and master cylinder. I have also changed the oil and the transmission
fluid. I also found the original tires from 1992 were still on the car and
needed to be replaced just due to age. At that point I decide I wanted to have
larger and wider tires on the car, so I ordered a set of later model 16”
aluminum wheels and purchased new tires for those wheels. I have kept the
original 15” steel wheels and covers just in case someone wanted them which are
in the trunk. When I got the 16” wheels 2 of the center caps were missing and I
have not replaced them yet. They are easy to find and can be had new online for
about $20.00 each. This car
runs great and I would feel safe driving it anywhere. The air conditioning
blows cold air and is working very well. That being said, I feel I need to
discuss the transmission and its condition. Though I have not driven the car
very much, I have felt the transmission slip a little on the highway while in
overdrive. I have not noticed any slipping while in drive just driving around
town and not on the highway at high speeds. I have taken the car to a reputable
mechanic who made a complete inspection. Because he removed the pan he again
replaced the transmission fluid with new and test drove the car. Once he was
done he said that he didn’t believe anything could really be wrong with the
transmission other than it just needed to be driven. He said once the car had someone driving it
every day it would more than likely stop slipping at all, and with just 22,000
miles on it there should be nothing internal causing it other than something
sticking due to not being driven. By bidding
on this car you agree to pick it up and pay in full with cash money within 2
weeks of the end of the sale. If you have any questions please feel free to ask
and I will answer as quickly as possible. |

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?
Sun, May 22 2016These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The 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.
