I'm offering at auction my 1967 Comet Voyager 4 door wagon. The Comet wagon has been stored outside at a storage facility for the past 2 years. I purchased a new battery and Solenoid for it and started the car on the first try. It idles perfectly.  The Comet wagon is a factory C code 289 auto 8" rear end.I purchased the car off of eBay in 2007. It has been upgraded with a Offenhauser manifold and Holley 600cfm carb. This is a column shift C4 automatic. Getting this car ready for an extended trip is the responsibility of the new owner. The front end components are worn and should be looked at before taking it on any long trips.


 The car has a complete interior. The upholstery is torn on the front bench and back seat. The cargo area needs a replacement interior side cover.

The car's body is overall pretty straight but the paint is poor and not an original Ford color. The front fenders  have been replaced.  The wagon has some rust on the lower section of the tailgate and the front floors. The fiberglass Cyclone hood looks good on this car. I do not have the original steel hood and the hood springs have been removed. All of the glass is perfect in the car as is the dash top. The radio is missing having been replaced with a aftermarket stereo. 

 I purchased a set of tires in 2010 and they have fewer than 500 miles on them. The drum brakes front and rear, radiator, rear axle bearings, hood prop rod, side view mirrors were all replaced with new parts in 2010. The rear window and rear dual action door which folds down like a tailgate and opens out like a regular door were rewired and repaired and now work properly. The wheels and wheel covers are from a Lincoln and go with the car.

If you are a California bidder be advised that there is a total of $464 owed to the DMV before the Comet can be registered in CA. There is no smog necessary.


The Hagerty valuation tool has the Comet Voyager wagon in #4 condition which is Fair at $16,900. A picture of the valuation chart is included. 

I reserve the right to end the auction early because the car is for sale locally.  Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I can help with loading.

A deposit to my PayPal account in the amount of $500 is required within 2 days of the close of the auction. Full payment in cash or certified funds is required within 7 days of the close of the auction. The car will not move until funds have cleared my bank. Please contact me in order to arrange to see the wagon. The car is currently located at my storage facility so I need some advance warning to arrange to see it. 


Another ebayer selling his Fairlane said this " This car is being sold as is where is with no warranty implied.  It is also for sale/trade locally, I reserve the right to end auction early.  CASH only please!  I do not need any help selling this car.  If you feel the car is an easy sell, feel free to buy it from me and sell it for what you think it is worth.  And finally, I know this car has flaws, dents, dings, rips, scratches, leaks peeling paint, rust and rot, that is why the car is being sold for under $2000..."


Thanks for viewing this auction and good luck bidding.

Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7

Sun, 31 Jul 2011

You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?

Fri, May 27 2016

When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill 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!
