1964 Mercury Marauder Park Lane 4 door Hardtop. This car runs and drives but has not been on the road for at least 5 years. The tires are just rollers. All the glass is good. All the lights, gauges, wipers, blower motor ect all work. The horn does not. I bought this car a few years ago as a parts car for a 2 dr ht. That car has sold so I no longer need this car. The head liner has come unstitched and is hanging down.This car came with a power bench seat but I do not have it. This is a really good looking car underneath. No visible rust under the car. The lower quarters will need some work as will the dog leg. The motor has been redone recently. To what extent I do not know for sure. I know the cam has been replaced and the heads redone. The would make a nice builder or a great parts car. I do not have the trunk key. I have a good spare trunk lid. The brakes stop the car but it has been sitting along time so I would not consider it road worthy. I have driven it up and down my road a few times in the last couple of days and it drives alright except for an exhaust leak. I can help with shipping. I am 60 miles south of I10  in south west Texas. I can meet you at the interstate. Or you can pick it up here, or at a place I have by Abilene Tx. I have a trip to Ms in a few weeks and if you are on the way I can drop it off. Any questions cal 214 226 3119 or e mail. If this car does not meet reserve i will part it out.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford 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.

Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman

Wed, 17 Nov 2010

Jill 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!
