Salina, Utah, United States
|
this convert is beautiful. I have people stop me while I'am driving it down the road just to talk to me about this car! everything about this car has been rebuilt or replaced with new parts, the top is only 3 weeks old & has the rear glass factory window. have the marti report! california car.original color was white with black top. my body shop man could'nt believe that it was originally white. there's 2 little spots where the paint is starting to bubble in front of the rear wheel opening that i had him look at . he told me he would repair them & one little scratch. for 400.00 very minor & cannot see them unless you look very close.so if it don't sell I'll have him fix it next winter.this car has no rust through any where! it looks as good underneath as it does on top. this car only gets driven on weekends or in parades or to local car shows. power top works flawlessly, drives down the road like a new car. plenty of power. has true wire wheels not hub caps.this car drives sooo nice that I'am having a hard time parting with it. my reserve is a lot lower than this car is worth. so bid now before I change my mind. p/s I have the original radio that goes with the car & the car cover & owners manuel & shop manuel. I've had people ask me about buying this car so I may have to pull it from this listing if it sell ,but not after the reserve has been met.if you have any questions feel free to call me anytime @ 435-260-8191 mike.

Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It'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.
Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.
