Ford Fairmont & Mercury Zephyr Owners and Enthusiast -

Hi Gang,

I'm back in the Fairmont saddle again. I bought back a 1980 Fairmont coupe I built in 2005 with my son. Sold it to his friend, Brian in 2006. Then 3 weeks ago he sold it back. It was one of those "shouldn't have sold it" cars. BUT...In the end I think I made a mistake. I remember the car as it was when I sold it to him. I let my emotions rule over my head.

Greetings!
Just picked up my 1980 4cyl 4spd sedan on Saturday. Was a hairy drive home due to a tire separation, but otherwise an enjoyable drive. Got it from a kid who bought it from the original owner to practice bodywork and paint. He did a decent job of straightening the body and painting for his first time. The old 4cyl runs as well as I could have hoped and will be fine to drive for the …

Hello all. Ive been a member for a few months but this is my first post. I am restoring a 79 boxtop Zephyr for a daily driver. I have built many mustangs and figured its time for something different. My car is an original 302/C4 car. It has factory bucket seats and a floor shifter which I hadnt seen before on an auto. I bought it with 76,000 miles. I thought it was nice but after removing …

Chris from Phoenix AZ. Just wanted to say hello. Just purchased a beautiful 1979 Mercury Zephyr Z7 with 76k original miles. White with red interior, 302 auto. All original and in great condition. Plans include swapping to 5 lug with disc brakes all around, possibly 4 barrel intake as well. I am sure I will have a few questions.

i live In East TN and i have a 79 Mercury Zephyr that was a 6 cyl but now is a 302 and i love it
