1963 Mercury Comet S-22 on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
|
Beautiful 1963 Mercury Comet convertible. This is a great driver, not a
museum piece, lots of fun to have out on weekends. I have put over
$16,000 into it in 4 years and it has been upgraded with a rebuilt
Windsor 302 V8, 3 speed C4 automatic transmission (fewer than 2K miles on engine and transmission), front disc brakes,
rear wheel drums, 15 inch, 5 lug wheels and power steering.
Transmission lever has been moved to the floor between the seats but I
have the original parts for the column shifter if you want to convert
back. It's not perfect, will benefit from some fixes in rubber seams,
chrome polishing, etc, but it looks great, is in very good condition and
turns a lot of heads. Selling because I just don't get enough use out
of it. 1963 black plates with yellow lettering are available to be
registered to the vehicle. Needs new hubcaps for the 15 inch wheels but
I have the original 13 inch hubcaps. This will be a fun and rewarding
vehicle for any buyer.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder
Fri, 11 Jul 2014There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.
Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
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.
