It's a Mercury Cougar. I'm afraid this car has problem after problem and needs to be not driven. That aside, 1. starter is bad 2. battery is bad 3. wire problems (very possible with this genius wiring system in these cars) 4. engine seized 5. fly wheel seized. Could also be a short in the ignition column. Wiring problems are wicked bad with these cars for sure.
