I have a 1975 Mercury comet two door factory a/c car with power brakes and power steering. Its a factory yellow car with black interior kinda a cool not common color option. The car was a 6cyl but has been swapped to a all orginal 302 its a c4 auto in it and has been converterd to floor shift including the steering colum. the drive train on the car is extremly complete the motor is out of a 1974 so its set up for points right now but the car has all the orginal wiring to convert to electronic ignition.The motor does run the carb needs to be rebuilt on it and some hoses are dry rotted from sitting in the arizona sun its alos missing a freeze plug on the block but it looks to be a easy one to get to. it has a 8inch rear end in it with lug the car is sitting on older crager ss rims 15x7 in front and 15x10 in rear the tires all hold air and have great tread they are just dry from sitting. The car has some rust but not what i would consider bad they only bad spot on the floor boards is the passenger side and its not horribel very fixable the rear quater have a small amount but still nothing bad ive seen way worse over all i consider it a pretty soilded car. The interior is pretty guted it does how ever have a nice black head liner in it other than that its pretty empty. the rear has been converted to small bumper i started the front but was never able to find the front comet parts. The area around the trunk lock needs work the previous owner lost the key and it looks like all he could find to remove the lock was a hammer and punch. the car had factory a/c the blower still works and included with the car are all the componets you will need to hook the factory a/c back up, also with the car comes a extra set of tail lights in great shape a extra hood with great trim on it, a perfect comet gas cap, a v8 cross bar, and some other misc parts. This is a awsome project car. any questions feel free to ask and please only bid if you will actually pay local pick up

Report: Last Mercury for retail business built on Sunday
Mon, 04 Oct 2010Ford is already well into winding down its Mercury line, and the autoamker has announced that the very last of the soon-to-be dead brand's products built for retail sales was manufactured on Sunday, October 3. The final Mercury Mariner rolled off of the assembly line at the company's Kansas City facility, putting an end to a brand with over 70 years of history behind it.
Even after the Mariner heads off into the automotive sunset, Ford says that it will continue to manufacture a handful of Mercury models for fleet and government service for a while longer, though mum's the word on how long we can expect that practice to continue.
Interestingly enough, according to USA Today, most incentives on Mercury vehicles have all but dried up, even as the brand's August production increased by 120 percent compared to July's figures. Instead of cash on the hood, some areas are offering no-cost maintenance or similar programs. Even so, Mercury has continued to out-sell Lincoln right to the end - besting Ford's luxury arm's sales by nine percent in August.
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.
Petrolicious shows Mercedes 280SL as architecture in motion
Wed, Jun 17 2015While still an absolute beauty today, the design of the pagoda-roof W113 Mercedes-Benz SL was revolutionary when it debuted. Moving away from the soft curves of the previous SL models, the all-new generation brought an upright, angular shape that was as much architectural as automotive. In the latest video from Petrolicious, owner and architect Daniel Monti expounds on the inspiration that he gets from his 1969 280SL's fantastic styling. The roof is the most famous design feature of this generation of SL. Look at the top from the front or back, and you can see a gentle, downward arc that evokes the look of a pagoda. That one styling element is also a fabulous counterpoint to a vehicle that is largely more angular than curvaceous. Petrolicious wonderfully illustrates how some of the SL's form-follows-function design aesthetic can be found in the architect's work in this video's heaping helping of mid-century modern goodness.
