1975 Mercury Comet Four Doors on 2040-cars
Lehigh Acres, Florida, United States
|
This a one of a kind 1975 mercury comet. It was part of previous owner family for a long time. It is a beauty ready to be restored by new owner. The car has mostly its original parts, and it was running and registered in 2008. This Mercury Comet is a restoration project with the right price. The car has some small rust in the body due to age, but easy to be repair. The car does not run due to whole in gas tank, and need of carburetor, but engine runs, and transmission is good. The engine type is 250 inline 6 cyl and has a good sound. I am not a mechanic, but when gas is added to carburetor, the engine sounds good. The car's ceiling needs some stitching. The passenger's door does not open. The floor panel has some rust, and driver's side has a small hole. The seats are original, but front seat has wore out.
The description of the car is up to my abilities, but as I stated before I am not a mechanic. Sold as it is, and sorry no refund. Please see pictures and request for additional information or questions before bidding. Once you have place a bid, and you are the higher bidder, you are the new owner, and payment is due. New owner is responsible for picking up the car locally or arrange to transport it. |

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
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!
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.
