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

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
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.
Junkyard Gem: 1973 Mercury Montego MX Brougham Sawzall Convertible Edition
Fri, Apr 21 2017You 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.
