Versatility: -Cleans up nice- a respectable looking vehicle with good bones and great lines, feels current- As far as the upgrade possibilities- the customizations I've seen online are sharp and slick! This car can accept a Duratec DOHC V6 or V8 SHO Engine- now seen on ebay for Cheap! Some guy fitted his Sable with a 32 Valve V8 SHO Taurus Engine It can be a good project sled to upgrade and customize- I've sourced and priced parts for this car from various parts vendors, and, for example, a used or rebuilt V4, V6 or V8 engine can be had for not as much as you'd think (if that's ever needed) But it's also a good Family car that Seats Five, is Safe, and has Practical Features- It has Austere Good Looks, Subtly Sophisticated in Black and has Room for your Life
History: -This Beautiful Sable has been garaged at night it's entire life, save for vacations and whatnot The Interior of the car is Excellent. This was my Mom's car and she babied it I've only had it since 2010, and the owner before her only put 16,000 on it Regular maintenance has always been done, and we've kept all of the service records I keep oiling and washing it and giving it love, but it's really not in use It's only been sitting in my garage for several months. My Mechanic has told me the seals need to be replaced to get compression back. Repairs as follows can be made at intervals, to get the car up and running immediately. The main issue is to replace the seals and keep the Engine from sputtering.
The Bad (your bargaining chips): Known Issues: 1. -Two bits of Rust (One at the Trunk, near the chrome trim, and one at the crest of the wheel well on the driver's side rear wheel) 2. -Needs a General Electronic Module (GEM - part around $100-250, Labor ? -and, according to the instructions, pretty easy) The GEM controls the Stereo AM/FM Radio/CD Player, Clock, Speedometer and Odometer, which are currently not working because of it- I have stopped driving it for this reason (regarding odometer reading- the GEM will reveal true Mileage) - but the instruments technically work- it's simply the GEM that needs to be replaced* 3. -Cruise Control not engaging* 4. -One Rear Window not opening* Rear Window Motor or some other issue may exist (unknown) The rest of the windows work fine *(*asterik indicates these may be GEM issues, and might be restored after GEM is functioning –{unknown}) 5. -Down the road, the front Brakes may need updating, and the drums are ugly, but functioning 6. -The compression is bad, needs Seals replaced, but it seems the engine is otherwise o.k., low miles
7. -Keep in mind this car isn't running right now, I've detached the battery! -------> Arrange for Towing to your home or garage, OR maybe I can give you a free one way tow with my Auto Club to within 50 miles of the 91205 Zip Code. - The insurance is still current and will be until the completion of sale. This is NOT a DMV Non-Operational, and has not been registered as such, as of
yet. The tags are good until April 2014. This is a functional vehicle that needs someone to invest a little green for a lot of car in return.
Let's Deal!
This has been an exceptional car We love the Sable, and All Ford Family Cars (we have another Ford), It’s just that we can get by without a second car It's a luxurious vehicle with a smooth, quiet ride and decent gas mileage, especially on the highway It's a solid piece of American Steel and is safe and practical It cleans up nice and has a nice get up and go on the freeway It's in the garage and will remain there until the right buyer comes along We're not desperate to sell, but we are open to offers, but no low-ballers, please Make a reasonable offer and we'll let it go for the right buyer

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!
Junkyard Gem: 1955 Mercury Montclair Coupe
Wed, Jul 20 2022I find plenty of 1950s Detroit vehicles in the big self-service car graveyards I frequent, but most of them are fairly ordinary sedans that never stood much chance of getting fixed up and put back on the road. Such is not the case with today's Junkyard Gem, which is a top-trim-level, heavily optioned hardtop coupe from one of the most desirable model years of the tailfins-and-chrome postwar era. Nearly every Mercury model ever made was a Ford model with some cosmetic changes applied, and the '55s looked very similar to their mechanically identical Ford brethren. In 1955, the new Mercury came in three trim levels: the entry-level Custom, the medium-zoot Monterey, and the glitzy Montclair. Each was available as a hardtop coupe and four-door sedan, with wagon versions of the Custom and Monterey. The Montclair could be purchased as a convertible or with the wild "Sun Valley" glass roof. The Montclair got its own line of hallucinogenic two-tone interiors, in order to make the daily lives of Europeans feel even more gray and penurious (the UK only dropped food rationing in 1954, and the two Germanies were still clearing the rubble of their blown-up cities). This car's upholstery has been bleached by decades of sitting outside in the harsh High Plains climate, but it started out as vivid red and white "Chromatex" fabric. The list price on this car was $2,631, or about $29,200 in 2022 dollars. The Sun Valley and convertible Montclair each cost $2,712 ($30,100 today). Ford didn't offer a corresponding hardtop coupe in 1955, though the Fairlane Crown Victoria two-door did look extremely snazzy (and cost a mere $2,302— $25,545 now— with the same V8 engine as the Monterey). Meanwhile, Oldsmobile offered the handsome 88 Super Holiday Coupe for $2,714, though the Montclair had the more powerful engine. Oldsmobile had been selling new cars with overhead-valve V8s since the 1949 model year, while Ford didn't ditch the Model A-era flathead V8 for new U.S.-market cars until the 1954 model year (you could buy a new Simca Esplanada in Brazil with an Ardun-headed Ford V8-60 all the way until 1969). GM's Chevrolet Division got all the press in 1955 with the introduction of the brand-new small-block V8 engine, but Ford's 292-cubic-inch (4.8-liter) Y-Block V8 made more power than the 265-cube (4.3-liter) Chevy and the 324ci Olds Rocket 88.
What do you do with a fake Bugatti Veyron for $60k?
Tue, Mar 29 2016Replica cars are a challenging labor of love because builders spend countless hours recreating a vehicle that people immediately compare to the real thing. Perhaps, the person behind this Mercury Cougar-based Bugatti Veyron should look for another way to pass that time. The coupe is currently for sale on eBay Motors for $59,900. The builder deserves some credit because the fiberglass body looks acceptable in the photos from farther away. The car might even fool a few people from a distance. However, the devil is in the details, and the closer you look, the worse this gets. The side intakes are especially rough. The red interior is atrocious. It's essentially the Cougar's cabin but in an eye-searing shade accented with lots of fake carbon fiber. The seller's eBay Motors ad really tries to market the look, though. "You slide in to [sic] this extremely comfortable leather interior and you feel like your bank account just quadrupled in size," the listing says. Don't expect to win any top speed titles in this Veyron replica, either. Rather than a mid-mounted quad-turbo W16, a 3.0-liter V6 from a Mercury Sable sits at the front. Thanks to an upgraded intake and exhaust, the seller claims, "It doesn't sound like your grandmas [sic] Sable." We wish the seller the best of luck, but the asking price of nearly $60,000 is probably too optimistic. We would still think twice about buying it even after taking a zero off that figure, but at least this thing is fun to look at. Related Video:
