I purchased this 1976 Mercury Comet from the 2nd owner in June of 2006. The previous owner stated the miles were original and it was stored inside a barn. The motor was just rebuilt when I bought it at around 71,000 miles. It was bored .030 over. A Edelbrock Cam and Lifter Kit was used along with intake manifold, 4-barrel carburetor and valve covers, all Edelbrock as well. Side pipe exhaust, Cragar S/S wheels and Rear Air Shocks were done by previous owner as well. There was an aftermarket stereo and speakers installed by previous owner but I decided to go with the working, original stereo. There is a lot of new parts I have installed along the way since owning it. Spark Plugs, Ford Racing 9mm Plug Wires, All Belts and Hoses, Thermostat,  MSD Blaster Coil, Duralast Starter, Battery Cables, K&N Air Filter, Duraspark Distributor Cap & Rotor and Fuel filter. Just changed the oil and filter. There is a few New-Old-Stock parts as well. Instrument Panel Circuit Board, Comet Locking Gas Cap, Dome Light Cover, Gear Shift Knob and Hood Prop Grommets. There was a Grant Aftermarket Steering Wheel in it when I bought it but I replaced it with a 1970's Ford Sport Steering wheel. The car runs and drives great. No leaks. All glass is in great shape. Headliner has a burnt spot as you can see in the picture. Other than that, great shape. The seats do need re-upholstered but just the fabric, springs are good. I have and will include a new color matched seat cover. Carpet has a spot missing on passenger side and driver's side foot pad is coming apart along the seam. All lights inside and out work. The check engine light came on after replacing the instrument panel circuit board with a NOS one, have not figured out why yet. Brakes are good. Tires do have some dry rot from sitting but lots of tread left. Paint is oxidized but shines up well. There is a spot on hood due to an egg. Did not get it cleaned off in time. Driver's side quarter panel and door has some tree sap damage to paint. There is a dent on hood in same spot as well. Dent on driver's side door by front fender. Looks like a crease. Few dents in trunk lid. There is very little rust. Quarter sized on both rear quarter panels on bottom by wheels. Rear bumper bracket has some rot on passenger side. All molding is there and I have the piece for the driver's side door, fell off. Dash pad has some cracks. Front grill has a crack by mounting tab. I have the original key for trunk and locking glove box. Clean title, in hand. Any questions, please feel free to ask. Buyer is responsible for shipping and car is sold as is. Thank you for your time.

Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
