Mercury Other Boxtop (1980)
for sale

Price: US $899.00

Description:

I bought this car and a 1980 Tbird 302 car for a donor .This mercury is a odd little car its bare bones .Has power steering power brakes and rear window defrost .Has a factory 4 speed I believe its the SROD so a common transmission in a mustang or change it to a auto or a 5 speed .Factory tach and bucket seats . I bought new master cylinder new brake cylinders rebuilt the carburetor new fuel pump and water pump seems to run ok still has some old fuel to burn out .Last owner passed away but I'm sure I know why he quit driving it I found the rear brake line inside the car was leaking at a kink (fixed) and steering was sloppy . The steering rag joint was shot I will fix if time I have the part .The trans and clutch where done about a year before he parked it.I have all parts for a v8 conversion minus the proper v8 bellhousing .You are bidding on the car only I will sell rest of parts cheap to buyer before listing on ebay .Its a fairly solid project car that runs drives stops has some small dents surface rust .The only real rust I found is under battery tray and core support where it meets I could fix it but cut front section off Tbird so theres options but no time . Floors seem solid but surface rust ( update I cut carpet on pass side floor I found a hole can be fixed or pan from tbird ). My thought was a tube crossmember a common 8.8 rear from a mustang and have a cheap little v8 hotrod as Fox body parts are cheap and a huge selection to choose from .Car weighs 2851 on title and can be much lighter .Bear in mind see pics thing car needs plenty of work to be sweet some pics did not load so please call for a detailed list of what I feel it needs .Door panels headliner carpet are shot but makes for a starter base that could be driven as its fixed up .Email or call with serious questions and more pics 360 496 1300 .Please note this car is listed locally and I reserve the right to end sale anytime
