Budget Big-Block: 1969 Mercury Marauder X-100

Here’s one I was seriously considering for myself! It’s a 1969 Mercury Marauder and although the seller doesn’t provide many details, it appears to be a X-100. The X-100 was the sporty version of Mercury’s full-sized Marauder. Well, sporty might not be… more»

1970 Mercury Cougar Eliminator

Mach 1 Mustangs are great, but if you want to be a little different, may I suggest a Mercury Cougar Eliminator? The same engine options were available, but fewer were sold so you are less likely to pass one… more»

1976 Mercury Capri: Hotted Up

We’ve featured a few Capris in the past, and the general consensus is they were decent driving cars in their day. Today, these European-market Fords are tough to find in good shape, with many having rusted away years ago…. more»

What. A. Shame. Those are the three words that come to mind when looking at this forlorn 1985 ASC/McLaren Mercury Capri here on craigslist, spotted by Barn Finds reader Robert R. I’ve always been a fan of these since they were… more»

Mercury Cyclone Spoiler Spotted!

The Cyclone was Mercury’s dedicated performance model. While they offered a number of high performance muscle cars, the Cyclone was built from day one to be a mean machine. In 1970 they introduced an even more performance minded version… more»

Cherry Blossom: 1957 Mercury Monterey

This is an opportunity to stand out from the crowd! As the seller notes, there are a lot of more mainstream ’57 cars out there, such as Fords and Chevrolets, but very few of these spectacular Mercurys. This Monterey is listed… more»

Out Of The Wild: 1956 Mercury Monterey Wagon

European Triplets: Mercury Capris

I’ve had a soft spot for Capri’s ever since they first appeared. Even the ads were cool! I’ve test driven several and almost bought two, but have never actually pulled the trigger. These three, found by Jim S, are… more»

1966 Mercury Marauder S-55: Super Project

Anytime I see the word Super in a name, I expect great things. Super literally means being excellent or superior, which sets the bar pretty high. The mid ’60s Mercury Marauder was a good car, but I don’t know if it was… more»

Sunburned: 1971 Mercury Capri GT
