1968 Mercury Montego MX convertible in awesome restorable condition. Restoration already started, original engine fully rebuilt to factory specs with a hipo cam, brand new full dual exhaust installed accept for tail pipes ( they come with it new as well ), new carb, freshened c4 original trans, new power steering pump, water pump and more. Runs and drives with new brakes all around, rebuilt front end. Glass is all good, floors, rockers, frame rails and torque boxes are perfect. The guy who owned this car bought it from a family that lost there father of old age, the car was left in a dry garage when my friend bought it from him. He is an engineer and a machinist. He actually made many reproduction parts out of raw stainless, and made them better than Ford! He powder coated the hood hinges, hood lock and bracket, air cleaner and valve covers and more. Fabricated the center floor brace, factory style exhaust hangers, a piece that covers the parking brake cable on the floor, the engine pull brackets on each side of engine, the brackets that hold in the directional lamps, all out of stainless steel to perfection as the factory parts. Power top works like new, rag is shot, still has glass back window, parts of the convertible frame are powder coated. Doors and trunk en and shut perfect, windows go up and down perfect. No rust in trunk, a tiny spot starting where the trunk rubber rim inside the trunk ( easily repaired ). Left lower rear quarter was cut off perfect and welds drilled out, the guy made his own patch panel that is perfect, and made out of real steel, not Chinese tin. The passenger side and front fenders have already been welded in place, body work not finished. Have a gorgeous dash cluster that looks restored, paid big bucks for it, still have the original as well. Door panels clean and useable, dash pad just sticky, needs a good cleaning ( no cracks ). Bucket seats are pretty clean but need the frames blasted and recovered, back seat as well. The bad, I don't have a title, and it's missing the console, shifter is still intact. I have every piece of molding and trim for this car, some in double! This is an easy winter restoration project. Come and check it out, just e mail me, and we can get together.

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!
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.
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.
