This listing is for a set of original 1957 or 1958 Mercury front fenders. These fenders have been in storage in an old shed in Brooksville Florida for half a century. The fenders were bought new according to the deceased owner's son and were bare metal with no primer protective coating of any kind. They were never used and over the years they developed surface rust from sitting in Florida's humidity. I bought them about fifteen years ago with the intention of dipping them in acid to remove the surface rust but the plant that did this process closed in Tampa and I haven't found another dipping facility. The Ford metal was thin in those years and I would not risk sand blasting these. There is one small hole on the left lower dog leg that came about from sitting on the shed's rotten floor. I haven't seen one of these fenders since the 60's that wasn't rusted in the lower doglegs and around and above the headlight. I don't have to tell anyone how rare these parts are and I don't expect they will ever be reproduced aftermarket. I would prefer to sell these with local pickup. Shipping can be arranged but it will be pricey to securely package them for transport. To hell with shippers insurance because these parts can't be replaced. They can be picked up at my home in Wesley Chapel Florida which is twenty miles North of Tampa just off I-75 Exit 179 at SR-54. I do travel North to Michigan and Pennsylvania to visit family occasionally and arrangements could be made for me to take them North for a fee. Please ask any questions you may have before bidding or buying these parts.     

2011 Mitsubishi Outlander: Prices, models & 2WD revealed

Fri, 22 Oct 2010

The 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander Prices & Models Mitsubishi has a proper SUV history with the Shogun. And even the softer SUV that is the Mitsubishi Outlander has proper off-road abilities – it’s not just capable of getting out of muddy car parks at boot sale and nothing more, it really can do a decent off-road job. And it’s that proper SUV background that makes car buyers take Mitsubishi’s SUVs seriously; far more seriously as proper off-roaders than something like a Tiguan or a Kuga.

12 Jaguar XKSS together at Pebble Beach (click for bigger image) Jaguar what, I hear you ask? The Jaguar XKSS is the roadgoing version of the legendary D-Type Jaguar and the precursor to the Jaguar even my mum knows –  the Jaguar E Type (or Jaguar XK-E if you’re on the other side of the Pond). So what’s so special about the Jaguar XKSS, then?
