Lake Worth, Florida, United States

Up for sale is a truly one of a kind automotive creation that will impress even the die-hard enthusiast. The core of the project was a fully loaded and PERFECT all original 1996 Glacier White Mercury Grand Marquis (Same body Style as Marauder) with only 35,000 miles 6 months ago! Then totally rebuilt it from the ground up! The car is of Barret-Jackson Quality, similar Resto-Rods of less desirable models regularly bring 45-50K. Loaded with every option, it became the perfect car to complete our Resto-Rod transformation. Our goal was to create a BETTER then new 2003 2004 Mercury Marauder. What we ended up with is a faster, more luxurious and better handling version that is unique. Many thanks go to the talented folks at AFE (Advanced Flow Engineering) in California for creating the custom intake, fuel delivery systems and tuning and our own home town heroes in Lake Worth, Custom Exhausts who helped to make this car as fabulous as it is. No other Marauder cloned or original is faster, better built or as stylish. Here is just a small list of the components that also comprise the build:
• Enkei 20"x9" 5 Spoke Limited Edition LM Marauder style wheels. • Nitto NT 555 Extreme 245/35/ZR20 Tires for the ultimate in traction and stability. • Brembo Non-Fade Rotors and Ceramic Brake Pads to provide exceptional stopping power! • Stainless Steel Complete Dual Exhaust with 2 1/2'" pipes, Catback Mufflers & Marauder Tips for a sport profile & performance sound • Jet Technology Power Chip and Programmer that provided a 20% increase in HP and MPG over the stock computer. • Custom Made Fully Ported Complete K&N Cold air intake system • Self-Leveling Suspension (PrecisionTrak) that constantly adjusts for driving conditions on the fly. • State of the Electronics (Passport Max Radar, Garmin GPS, Alpine Head unit for Ipods, CD, Tuner, MP3, Chips and Active Sirius) all built in with no external wiring! • Fully Digtal Dash and Gauges with Factory Trip Computer including Auto Meter Marauder Pod Gauges. • Hella HID headlights, 15000K Xenon Intensity. Safest way to drive at night and looks awesome. • HID Foglights (Driving) with 12K bulbs. • High Lift Duration Crane Cam, then engine balanced and blueprinted!. • Finest Ceramic LLumar Window tinting all around with a lifetime guarantee • Custom Made Embroidered Marauder Floor Mats. The latest Dyno test resulted at 348 HP at the REAR WHEELS, faster then any Original Marauder but never put on any track or raced (Even stoplight! lol) but as comfortable as any highway cruiser in existence. So much more was put into it, would take pages to list. If you want a one of a kind car that could not be duplicated for a fraction of the build cost, here it is. We have over 35K invested in this creation but will sell it to begin our newest endeavor! You must see and drive it to fully appreciate it! Thank you for your interest |

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey
Wed, 09 Jan 2013The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
Ford Announces Free Brake-Pad Offer If Customers Stop By Dealers
Mon, Aug 4 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers. "We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts. Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1. "This program reflects our commitment to providing customers with an excellent ownership experience regardless of the age of their vehicle," said Frederiek Toney, President of Ford Customer Service, in the company's announcement of the offer.
