For Sale: 1986 Mercury Grand Marquis in Cadillac, Michigan
1986 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park 3seat 8-passenger station
wagon -This is my late father's car; it has been stored in the
garage of his summer home near Bethel, PA since 2006. I recently
had it trailered to our farm in Kempton, PA. The car starts, runs
and drives well on the farm but the brakes are soft. It has not
been driven on the road for the past 15 years. In order to get the
car running again, the fluids have been changed; fresh gas, oil and
filter changed, ATF refilled, new coolant. I also replaced the
radiator (and thermostat) due to a coolant leak. I did not address
the brakes; please don't expect to drive this car home. A new
battery is also installed. The exterior of this Mercury is in very
good condition: the original paint shines nicely; the simulated
woodgrain trim is not sun-faded; all the numerous stainless steel
trim pieces are present and lustrous; the glass is good except for
a scratch in the windshield; all the light and lenses function
properly; the accessory turbine wheels are not curbed; the roof
rack is complete. There is no evidence of any rust-out on the body,
although there are a few dings and scratches. Overall, the car's
exterior looks very nice. The optional velour interior is also in
good condition: no tears or worn surfaces on the seats; some cracks
in dash pad but not sunbaked; headliner in good condition; carpet
not torn but no floor mats; all knobs, switches, handles intact;
folding seat works; third seating area is clean and complete but
paint is peeling from aluminum lift panels. A nice interior that
could use some detailing. I have not driven this car off of the
farm but have taken note of the following; brakes are soft and
barely stop car; right rear power window is inoperative; horn does
not work; fan belt idler squeaks; tires are old, right rear loses
air; auto trans drips fluid when sitting; I did not try the A/C but
the heater works. Specifications: 5.0L EFI 302 CID Windsor (vin
code F) V8 engine; 4-speed auto
