Cranston, Rhode Island, United States

2000 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS LS HPP 3.55 This is likely one of the nicest police handling package sedans you will find. Make no mistake, no bad guys have ever ridden in this one, but it would hold its own in a high speed ‘interceptor chase!
Up for sale is my 2000 GRAND MARQUIS LS HPP. It has 30,000 original pampered miles. That’s a little more than 2,000 miles a year!
This baby’s been babied, baby!
It has NEVER been rained on, in the rain or snow. A $29,000 car new. Undercarriage is in like new condition. This car has been a lifelong “garage queen” which was originally ordered by an older gentleman (retired law enforcement guy) who checked off virtually every option. Car is the extremely desirable color of Silver Frost, a spectacular color for this body style. Paint is in phenomenal shape except for a couple of small “grandpa rash” scratches on the front bumper cover. Featuring the bulletproof 4.6L V-8 used in everything from Lincoln Town Cars to Mustang GT’s, this beauty is LOADED with Options: · LS luxury model · Digital Dash Option · Trip Computer Feature (miles to empty, e.g.) · Leather Seats · Leather Steering Wheel · Stereo Cassette · Power Trunk · Upgraded Automatic Climate Control · Power Windows · Rear Defrost · Vanity Mirrors · Dual Power Mirrors · Dual Reclining Power Comfort Seats (It’s like driving your living room!) · Traction Control · Handling Package · Performance Package · 3.55 Rear End · Dual Exhaust (factory!) · Convenience Light Package · Electronic Cruise Control · Electronic Compass Rear View Mirror · Heavy Duty suspension · Heavy Duty Sway Bars · Heavy Duty Rear Air Suspension · Front and Rear ceiling mounted spot lights · Front Dual Arm Rests · Rear Arm Rest · Power Trunk Release · Traction Control Bypass Switch
Its engine compartment is immaculate as you can see. All service records since new, original window sticker, bill of sale, ALL PAPERWORK including the receipt for the FOUR GRAND NEW GOODYEAR EAGLE SPORT 225 60 16 ALL SEASON RADIALS mounted on the flawless 16 x 8 “lacy” wheels. Leather, carpets, headliner, trunk in fantastic condition - Always garaged in climate controlled garage. No sun fading, no rust. NEVER IN RAIN, SNOW, SALT. 18 MPG city, 24 MPG highway. This vehicle needs absolutely nothing but a new owner. It comes with all of the manuals, keys, e.g. This vehicle is garaged in Rhode Island and is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty, expressed or implied. I am a private owner, not a dealer. Florida registration and I have clear title in my name.
This is one of the best cars ever made and they routinely go 300,000 miles with their bulletproof reliability. You would be hard pressed to find one as nice as this one and in my opinion, this series is nicer looking than the goofy 2003 and after models.
I require a nonrefundable deposit of $1000 immediately via PayPal at the conclusion of the auction, with the balance due in the form of a bank check in five business days. For HALF the price of a tired Accord or Camry, this car is a bargain which will only provide enjoyment and reliable, safe, rugged dependability in the years to come. These Ford and Mercury “panther” sedans are no longer made and few were built with these options. Needs nothing, just serviced – all fluids changed, four new tires, alignment, even a full tank of gas! It’s been waxed and detailed and looks new.
No joyrides. I will consider test drives scheduled at mutually convenient times only for bidders who've met reserve. I am not a dealer and my time is tight.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
Junkyard Gem: 1979 Mercury Marquis 2-Door Sedan
Sun, Jul 25 2021As the creator of the now-much-overused term "Malaise Era" (which I say started in 1973 and ended in 1983, full stop), I have a certain affection for the big two-door Detroit cars of the late 1970s. When such a car is built on the very first model year of Ford's long-lived Panther platform and I find one in a junkyard, I must document it. The 1979 Mercury Marquis is such a car, and this one was found in a San Francisco Bay Area self-service yard last month. Since Ford built the Grand Marquis all the way through the demise of the Panther platform— and Mercury itself— in 2011, it's easy for us to forget that the model name started out as just the plain old Marquis, back in the 1967 model year, with the Grand appellation used for the car's top trim level. While today's Junkyard Gem has some of the features of the Grand Marquis and Marquis Brougham trim levels for 1979 (notably the padded vinyl landau roof and power windows), it lacks the huge chrome lower-body moldings of those cars. Instead, it's a regular Marquis 2-door sedan with a big load of expensive options. That landau roof has suffered greatly from its decades beneath the vinyl-disintegrating California sun. The Panther platform was a big technological upgrade from the late-1950s-vintage chassis technology of full-sized Fords of the 1960s and 1970s, and it stayed in front-line service in much the same form through 2011. Though its ride and handling were much improved, the 1979 Marquis was quite a bit smaller than its predecessors, and that caused some grumbling among Mercury shoppers. Some ham-handed junkyard shoppers really tore up the interior of this car while extracting a few bits and pieces, but we can still admire the Pine Green pleather of the glorious Twin Comfort Lounge front seats. You had two engine choices when buying a new '79 Marquis: the base 302-cubic-inch (5.0-liter) Windsor V8 making 129 horsepower or the optional 351-cubic-inch (5.8-liter) Windsor V8 rated at 138 horsepower. This one appears to be the 351, the same engine as had been swapped into the pizza-delivery Mercury I drove in the middle 1980s. New cars sold in California around this time had these giant emissions-numbers stickers on the side glass. Later, they went on the underside of the hood.
Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You 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.
