Palatine, Illinois, United States
|
I bought this vehicle used 3 years ago, and it was my daily driver. Since then I have moved to within walking distance of work. I don't drive this vehicle much any more so it's not worth the cost of repairing the transmission. Here is a list of the things I have done to the car to keep it up:
- New brake pads on all 4 wheels - New discs on all 4 wheels - Rebuilt brake caliper on driver side, new brake caliper on passenger side - 2 new front axles - Rebuilt rear differential - Rebuilt transfer case - 4 new wheel bearings - 4 new tires - Aftermarket in-dash navigation system with backup camera (includes ipod cable) The broken: - ABS light on dash - Parking brake shoes (there aren't any) - Hood struts don't hold up the hood - Rear defrost only has one line working - Transmission only goes in reverse The body is in good condition for its age. The interior is in OK condition. There is a broken trim panel on the driver's side door. The mileage is low for a 12-year old vehicle. Winning bidder is to pay $500 non-refundable deposit by paypal. The balance is due is due within 72 hours of acceptance of the offer. Please do not submit an offer if your funds are not in place. |

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible
Wed, 31 Aug 2011Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.
Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7
Sun, 31 Jul 2011You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.
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!
