This 1977 Mercury Cougar XR7 is a matching numbers all original blast from the past that is a real treat to cruise down the road. It is in excellent condition and runs and drives perfectly! Powered by its original numbers matching 351 (Cleveland) this beauty floats down the road with a smooth ride rivaled only by the Lincoln's and Cadillac's of the time period. With only 36,400 actual miles it is just broken in and ready to drive anywhere! The original white and dark blue lower panels paint is in very good condition and retains almost all of its deep shine and luster. The original blue leather interior is in almost showroom condition with no tears or scuffs to the seats or seat backs. The back seat appears as if it was never used! The headliner and dash are in flawless condition and looks like they were installed yesterday! The XR7 was the luxury version of the Cougar with many of the options being standard equipment. This highly option XR7 features leather eats, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, power seats, cruise control, dual remote outside sport mirrors, and AM/FM radio. As an XR7 it also has the full gauge package with factory tach, etc. An aftermarket CB radio, CB antenna, (wire for antenna can be seen in photo of passenger floorboard) mounting bracket, and owners manual are in the trunk and are inlcluded in the sale.

This car had the factory rust proofing option of the day called "Ziebart" and it must have worked because the car is completely rust free. Less than 200 miles on brand new BF Goodrich Radial TA's. This car runs and drives like its showroom new! If you want to have something totally different that turns hears at the cruise ins and everywhere else you go then this car is for you.

If you have any questions call me at 615-351-0096. My name is Bo.

NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue

Mon, 29 Oct 2012

A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Junkyard Gem: 1973 Mercury Montego MX Brougham Sawzall Convertible Edition

Fri, Apr 21 2017

You know how it goes— the weather is warm, you want to do some top-down driving, and you lack a proper convertible... but you do have a hooptie Detroit car on one side of the garage and a big ol' Sawzall on the other. Put the two together and you have a Sawzall Convertible, which generally lasts for about one summer before it gets scrapped. Here's a fine example of such a car, photographed in a San Francisco Bay Area self-service junkyard. Most Sawzall Convertibles (yes, it should be called a roadster, but nobody does that) have raw, ragged metal edges, or maybe duct tape over the stumps of the amputated pillars, but someone went to the trouble to weld nice smooth metal covers over the hackage on this one. The windshield is gone. Instead, the windshield frame is ringed by tongue depressors held in place by gooey roofing tar. No, we don't know why. The Montego MX Brougham was a hot-selling personal luxury coupe in its day, selling for $3,041 in 1973. That's just under $17,000 in 2017 dollars. It must have been fun, cruising this thing on Bay Area streets with no roof and a rattle-can spray-bomb job. This one has the optional 400-cubic-inch V8 engine, rated at 171 horsepower. What would this car's original buyer have thought of its fate? This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
