I Have a getting hard to find 1967 cougar that I bought to restore but now have other project to do and no time to put on this one. I bought this from a person that had put a lot of money in the motor it has a 302 bored 40 over with a big cam and it also has aluminum JEGS heads on it witch are around a $1000 by them self. It however has been in a Garage for 7 years I took it home on a trailer and got it running and it does have some power but it seems the it has a main bearing Knocking or wrist pins ??? don't no much about motors or the car other then the little bit they knew the motor I was told has less then 3500 miles on it. I had two mechanics tell me it was the risk pins and one tell me it was the main we did drop the oil pan and all rods seem to be fine. Other then the noise when it warms up this car has a lot of power and runs pretty fair but could use some carb work but runs good after warmed up so not bad for sitting that long. But it is a restore project for sure. All lights work but has a lot of wire splices in it. the head light lids don't open by them self but i see the air lines going to them are not even hooked up and looked to be a little rotten. Not much rust from what i can see it does look like it has had some body work done last time it was fixed up but not sure what. The body looks pretty straight there is some spots in the trunk that have rusted threw but they are small. it has air shocks on back and traction bars i think under the back with a posi rear-end. I was told it was built to race however the car looks to be all there other then the center column is gone and replaced with race shifter also is missing some dash parts like glove box and radio and dash cover is in bad shape all glass is good the back driver side widow seems to be off the track. Their are no locks in this car also you have to flip a toggle switch on then turn the key to make it start.. so unless you no that it will turn over but not start until you flip that on. should be a easy fix i put the new ignition switch in it but i think their is a wire that need to be hooked back up for the key to do all the work again ???.
I am not going to say this car is perfect but they are worth the money and time if you have it to fix them up this one is in pretty good shape yet and can be driven. blinkers also work
well that is all i no about it.
Happy bidding

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage
Mon, 03 Jan 2011The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers
Mon, 04 Aug 2014These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A 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.
