Finest Built 1996 Mercury Grand Marquis Marauder Resto-mod W/37k Org. Miles on 2040-cars
Lake Worth, Florida, United States
Up for sale is a truly one of a kind automotive creation that will impress even the die-hard enthusiast. The core of the project was a fully loaded and PERFECT all original 1996 Glacier White Mercury Grand Marquis (Same body Style as Marauder) with only 35,000 miles 6 months ago! Then totally rebuilt it from the ground up! The car is of Barret-Jackson Quality, similar Resto-Rods of less desirable models regularly bring 45-50K. Loaded with every option, it became the perfect car to complete our Resto-Rod transformation. Our goal was to create a BETTER then new 2003 2004 Mercury Marauder. What we ended up with is a faster, more luxurious and better handling version that is unique. Many thanks go to the talented folks at AFE (Advanced Flow Engineering) in California for creating the custom intake, fuel delivery systems and tuning and our own home town heroes in Lake Worth, Custom Exhausts who helped to make this car as fabulous as it is. No other Marauder cloned or original is faster, better built or as stylish. Here is just a small list of the components that also comprise the build:
• Enkei 20"x9" 5 Spoke Limited Edition LM Marauder style wheels. • Nitto NT 555 Extreme 245/35/ZR20 Tires for the ultimate in traction and stability. • Brembo Non-Fade Rotors and Ceramic Brake Pads to provide exceptional stopping power! • Stainless Steel Complete Dual Exhaust with 2 1/2'" pipes, Catback Mufflers & Marauder Tips for a sport profile & performance sound • Jet Technology Power Chip and Programmer that provided a 20% increase in HP and MPG over the stock computer. • Custom Made Fully Ported Complete K&N Cold air intake system • Self-Leveling Suspension (PrecisionTrak) that constantly adjusts for driving conditions on the fly. • State of the Electronics (Passport Max Radar, Garmin GPS, Alpine Head unit for Ipods, CD, Tuner, MP3, Chips and Active Sirius) all built in with no external wiring! • Fully Digtal Dash and Gauges with Factory Trip Computer including Auto Meter Marauder Pod Gauges. • Hella HID headlights, 15000K Xenon Intensity. Safest way to drive at night and looks awesome. • HID Foglights (Driving) with 12K bulbs. • High Lift Duration Crane Cam, then engine balanced and blueprinted!. • Finest Ceramic LLumar Window tinting all around with a lifetime guarantee • Custom Made Embroidered Marauder Floor Mats. The latest Dyno test resulted at 348 HP at the REAR WHEELS, faster then any Original Marauder but never put on any track or raced (Even stoplight! lol) but as comfortable as any highway cruiser in existence. So much more was put into it, would take pages to list. If you want a one of a kind car that could not be duplicated for a fraction of the build cost, here it is. We have over 35K invested in this creation but will sell it to begin our newest endeavor! You must see and drive it to fully appreciate it! Thank you for your interest |

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.
Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
