1954 Mercury Monterey Coupe "Rat Rod"

For sale:

Probably the coolest 54 Merc “restomod” you’ve ever put your grubby little hands on. Definitely not for those who prefer to be unnoticed. Black on black, and a very rare find.

If you’ve ever attempted to restore or modify a classic or antique car into a daily driver with many of the amenities of today’s vehicles, you can probably appreciate the labor and dedication that has been invested in this vehicle. The modern touches are:

*Air Conditioning – yep, it’s real and it really works.

*Late 80’s 5.0 liter 302 with 4 barrel carb – Just enough oomph to get your attention, coupled with an AOD transmission, all from the “bulletproof” 5.0 mustang you know and love. AKA – one of Ford’s most reliable powertrains.

*Mustang II front end with power disk brakes and power steering…stops as well as it goes!

*Custom “more than you can ever use” sound system. Tastefully done, including sub, amps, and speakers galore, all installed with style and substance. Bluetooth capable.

*Additional “bad ass optima” in the trunk on top of the “bad ass optima” battery under the hood. If you run out of power while listening to your ridiculous sound system, you’ve been sitting still entirely too long.

*Remote actuated doors via either wireless remote or hidden switches, door handles have been shaved.

*Flat Black “Bad to the bone” paint, and tinted windows all around. The coolest rims and tires that could possibly go on a 54 mercury are on this one, huge thick whitewalls and smooth moon hubcaps!

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There 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.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These 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.
