Mercury : Other Base

This is a 1965 Mercury Park Lane Marauder with a hipo 390 and a 3-speed Merc-o-Matic transmission $8000 obo.  Apparently I do not have any pictures of the inside but I can take some upon request.  Here's a video of it which is way better than pictures! PLEASE NOTE: The strange squiggly marks in the body is due to a different kind of primer that the body shop used that he had left over. The body is straight. http://youtu. be/RSOWFqKt08I This car has been in the family since 2001 and I have owned it since 2006. I have had all the bodywork done (c. $2500) and it is ready for your paint of choice! A professional did the bodywork and a separate professional auto paint shop told me that he did a very good job on the body. It has been in heated storage since the bodywork was completed. The engine has been rebuilt by somebody who knew what they were doing and it runs VERY strong! My dad and I rebuilt the transmission but unfortunately it suffers from a very common problem among that particular tranny (you can do some research) and it started slipping only in reverse (not 1st) not 200 miles after the rebuild. Best to replace with C4/C6 or just drive it like I did since drive works perfectly and reverse still works as long as you are not on a hill lol. Interior is good: good floor panels. needs carpet. some chrome needs to be works on. bucket seats. rear bench. and door panels are in good repair (drivers seat seams are coming apart) although previous owner spray painted over the cream vinyl (idiots)! Custom tuned Edelbrock carb and 2 1/2 inch exhaust (sounds great. no leaks). Power windows. manual choke. no A/C. factory tack (sticks at 3500 rpm). and has a slight turn signal wiring issue but they work along with all other external lights (only some of the interior work but I've never put bulbs in so I'm not sure what it will take to get them working). Also the instrument panel lights work fine. I have EVERY trim piece except: passenger rear post interior light cover. one chrome lock knob cover. and original rear speaker. This is incredible since body parts can prove to be near impossible to find. This is a very special car and I regret having to get rid of it but baby #1 on his way! You're looking a very reasonable restore project that's already well on it's way! I've listed everything I can think of; please feel free to ask any questions.  DELIVERY NOT AVAILABLE Buyer must pick up! Camano Island WA. 98282 I can't remember the exact odometer reading although 95. 00 is really close. Doesn't really matter since it's only a five digit odometer.
