Up for sale is a 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis LS with only 64,180 original miles.  This is a garage kept, 1 owner vehicle that is in excellent condition.  I say excellent because the vehicle does not need any mechanical reconditioning and the body and interior are immaculate.  The body is straight with no previous repairs or even dents.  There are two paint chips I found on the front passenger wheel well (see pic), but other than that this car is very clean.  The interior has no rips or burn holes.  The air conditioning works well and so does everything else in the vehicle with a few minor exceptions.  One item I noticed that doesn't work is the push button off on the radio.  The radio stays on but the volume can be turned all the way down if no sound is desired.  Also, the hood struts do not keep the hood closed but these can be replaced inexpensively. Finally, the front passenger window doesn't go down.  I'm not sure if it's a switch, motor, or something else.  


The tires are all matching Michelin tires with plenty of tread wear left.  I have pictures but didn't include them here because I can only put 24 pics. 

All in all this is an elegant automobile with it's classy lines and cloth top roof (which is in tip top condition).  And it's basically like buying a new car for a whole lot less since this car is ready to be driven for a whole lot of miles.  Most of you know that these are the same as the Ford Crown Victorias and were the first choice by police and taxis when they were being produced.  This is because they are full frame vehicles which means they are very sturdy and will last for hundreds of thousands of miles with proper maintenance (trust me..I ask every NYC cab driver how many miles they have on their cars and I'm shocked to constantly hear numbers above 300,000 miles). Also, they have plenty of room, power, and are cheap to maintain due to parts being widely available and from domestic producers (cheaper).  

Not sure what else to say about this car...the pictures should speak for themselves.  

Feel free to call me with questions -  516-468-3258

I reserve the right to end this auction early since the vehicle is being sold locally as well.

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.

Junkyard Gem: 1972 Mercury Cougar XR-7

Sun, Feb 12 2023

Starting with the 1939 model year and continuing through 2011, the rule in Dearborn was that most Ford models would get a dressed-up sibling wearing Mercury badges (and Canadians even got Mercury F-100s and Econolines). When the Mustang first hit showrooms in 1964, the countdown for a Mercurized version began. That car, the Cougar, debuted as a 1967 model marketed as "the man's car." Today's Junkyard Gem is a much-abused example of the early-1970s Cougar, found in a San Francisco Bay Area car graveyard a while back. Just as the Mustang packed on weight and price as the 1960s became the 1970s, the even more heavily gingerbreaded Cougar did the same. For 1971 through 1973, the Cougar was still based on the Mustang chassis but weighed several hundred additional pounds and was more than seven inches longer. The curb weight for this car was 3,298 pounds, versus 2,941 pounds for the lightest '72 Mustang coupe. Yes, there's a Mustang underneath all that chrome! When the Mustang went to a modified Pinto chassis starting in the 1974 model year, the Cougar moved over to the midsize Torino platform and stayed there until it rejoined the Mustang on the Fox platform for 1980 (though the honor of being the Mustang's near-twin went to the Mercury Capri at that point). For 1989, the Cougar became an MN12 Thunderbird sibling, where it remained through its 30th anniversary … and then the Cougar got the axe. The Cougar story wasn't done at that point, however, because the name got revived in 1999 with a Mondeo-based version that lasted through 2002 and bears the distinction of being one of the few Mercury models with no corresponding Ford-badged counterpart. Along the way, there were Cougar sedans and even station wagons, with the curb weight of the heaviest-ever Cougar bloating to well over two tons (the winner of that honor is the 1977 Cougar Villager wagon, scaling in at an astounding 4,482 pounds). In 1972, though, all new Cougars were coupes or convertibles, and all of them came with factory V8 power. The build tag on this one tells us that it was assembled at the River Rouge compound in Dearborn and sold via the Kansas City sales office. That tells us that someone drove this car to California after buying it in the Midwest; Ford also built 1972 Cougars in San Jose, so California Mercury shoppers would have bought locally-produced ones. It's a top-end XR-7 in Medium Bright Yellow paint, with the interior in Medium Ginger.
