1984 Mercury Capri 5.0l Fox Body on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
1984 Mercury Capri 5.0 (302) V8 5 speed manual transmission. I'm selling the car as I just cannot justify registering and insuring it another year when I rarely use it. The car runs and drives very well.
Body - Paint is faded. The front valance is cracked in a few places. Some plastic trim around the car is also cracked. Body is strait though. Engine - Runs and drives great. There is a newer aftermarket carb with a manual choke. Recent camshaft replacement /w stock style cam. Interior - Sun faded seats and carpet. Dash is cracked. Missing all but 1 speaker from the sound system. Heater works great Powertrain/oily bits - Newer clutch and transmission re-seal. Front suspension is in decent shape, rear suspension could use some new bushings. Tires have lots of life left on them. Tried to run it though emission before selling but it failed for co emissions, Might need a tune-up I purchased this car a while back to have something fun to drive on the weekends. My job has since changed and I am now traveling a lot. The Oregon registration is due at the end of the month and I can no longer justify owning it. My loss, your gain. If you have any questions or need additional pictures please let me know. This car is sold as-is |

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.

eBay Find of the Day: Craterface's '49 Mercury convertible from Grease
Wed, 29 Jan 2014Here is your chance to own your very own piece of greased lightning. Well, not the Greased Lighting, it's actually the black, flamed 1949 Mercury convertible that races against John Travolta in the classic 1978 movie Grease, and it's for auction on eBay Motors.
While it appeared in the film's exciting drag race in a Los Angeles storm drain, the hot rod was reportedly lost until last year, when the seller found it as a shell. He verified that it was the actual car with original builder, Eddie Paul, and sent the car for a complete restoration.
The auction includes original parts like the exhaust tips used in the movie and bent bumper from when it hit Travolta's car in the scene. The restorer recreated the scorpion stickers on the doors, razor hubcaps and license plate. He also installed a 1949 Mercury 255-cubic-inch (4.2-liter), flathead V8 and three-speed manual transmission with overdrive.
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!
