1968 Custom Cougar on 2040-cars
Chesterland, Ohio, United States
|
The story behind this car. I bought this car off Ebay in 2008 from Santa Maria California. The gentleman I purchased it fom had put in a brand new 302 engine with transmission. I had it shipped back to Ohio and had a friend restore it for me. 6 years later and it is now 95 to 98 percent complete. I wanted a custom cougar like I seen as a child. So complete color change inside and out, There is nothing original about this car. I just wanted a bad looking car to drive down the road and that is what I have. I have gone to one car show with this car and won first prize. There is some things new owner will have to do if he or she wants to. It needs a drip rail on passenger side the one on there has dings, The chrome under doors has some scratches. I had new carpet put in for some reason it was short under dash. There is no stereo buy all new wires are run. The engine and trainy has 450 miles. There is a small bubble on passenger door. its real hard to see. I have over 37,000 dollars invested so far in this car. Any questions please ask.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line
Wed, 05 Jan 2011The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

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.
