Very solid and original 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente convertible with the highly-desirable K-code 289 4v high performance engine.  The car runs and drives very well, and features power steering and a power top.  The 3-speed Merc-O-Matic automatic transmission is in proper working order, and the original heavy-duty 9" rear end is in place.


Original Carnival Red on two-tone red & black bucket seat/console K-code convertible... doesn't get much better.  The car comes with lots of new parts including a white convertible top, red carpet kit, red arm rests, red seat belts, door sill plates, window felts and rubbers, dash woodgrain kit, weatherstripping kit, convertible top bolt/fastener kit, heater kit, top well liner, and more.  It also comes with a split-back bench seat and new red upholstery kit if you want more seating up front.  The car includes original front bucket seats, console, and rear seat as well.  The door panels and rear interior trim panels are all present.  

The body is reasonably straight with no evidence of accidents.  No major rust issues, just some minor bubbling in a few areas down low.  Grill and stainless trim is nice all around.  Bumpers are straight and shiny.  Glass is good, all windows work.

Power top operates perfectly.  All the convertible-specific trim and parts are present.

This is a car you can get in and drive as-is, the mechanicals are strong.  Paint is old, but still has some shine to it.  Priced to sell at $6,500.00.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

Has the Mercury Marauder gotten better with age?

Fri, Oct 23 2015

In the early 2000s Mercury desperately wanted to develop some edge for its brand – seemingly stuck between a quasi-premium, quasi-performance space in the Ford Universe. The Marauder is perhaps the most famous of the vehicles that resulted from those efforts, and is rapidly approaching Modern Classic status, today. Effectively a murdered out Grand Marquis with some updated trim pieces – what are company parts bins for, if not raiding? – the Marauder looked convincingly like a bad guy car. The 4.6-liter V8 under its hood that had been breathed on by engineers for a little more power, kicking out 302 horsepower and 318 pound-feet of torque from the factory. Not exactly Ferrari-baiting numbers, but it'd give your local cop's car a run for its money. Being a wild child of the last decade, of course our friends at MotorWeek had it on the program. What better way to test your mean-mugging muscle sedan than with John Davis' tanned and steady hands?

What do you do with a fake Bugatti Veyron for $60k?

Tue, Mar 29 2016

Replica 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:
