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.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.

Junkyard Gem: 1970 Mercury Cougar

Tue, Oct 10 2017

The plot of the Mercury Cougar story took a lot of strange twists and turns during its 35 or so years, from ponycar to immense luxobarge to family sedan to station wagon to Integra competitor. Examples of the first Cougar generation are nearly extinct in American wrecking yards, so I was excited to spot this one in Denver. Lest you shed any tears over this car going to the crusher, know that it was suffering from the ravenous teeth of the Rust Monster long before it got here. The 1967-1970 Cougar was based on the Mustang platform of the same era, and so it was a sleeker and quicker cat than its successors. Still, the longer wheelbase, extra equipment and all the cool-looking bodywork added some heft; the 1970 Mustang hardtop with V8 scaled in at 2,923 pounds, while the 1970 Cougar weighed 3,307 pounds. The current Ford Focus would fit just between those two weights. There was also a mid-cycle refresh in that era, with the '67-'68 and '69-'70 having different exterior styling and interiors. The '69 and '70 had different front end styling as well, with the latter re-adopting the vertical grille slats featured on the earlier model years. The '69 has horizontal slats. The drivetrain and just about everything else of value has been shorn from this car, perhaps before it arrived in this yard. In 1970, a bewildering assortment of V8 engines was available in the Cougar, including a Boss 302, two completely different 351s, and a 335-horse Cobra Jet 428. The base engine was a 351 Windsor making 250 gross horsepower. Since car rooftops mostly don't rust, why would someone cut out this one? Sheet metal needed for patching a leaky shed roof, perhaps? This 2005-2006 Denver Nuggets window sticker indicates that the car was on the street (probably) as recently as 11 years ago. This content is hosted by a third party.

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.
