Thanks for stopping by to take a look at one very cool 1970 Mercury Cougar XR7.  This Cougar is a 1 owner Southern California beauty.  She is very original but carries some modern updates as well.  Let’s check it out!


Rarity

Muscle cars are drying up fast!  Tens of thousands have been exported. Many have become jewels in vast collections that are never driven and 30 years ago, many went to the crusher.   Five decades down the road, finding a nice canvas for your art can be tough.  We purchased this Cougar from the grandson of the original owner and commissioned a sympathetic restoration.  Yes, we did vary from the original Light Ivy Yellow color palette. 


This was a typically well optioned Cougar XR7.  


We have the Marti Report to confirm her provenance.

Inspection

Please come inspect this great car before the listing ends. We are happy to meet you and show her off. The details contained in this listing are based on our review of the vehicle and any errors or omissions are unintentional.  Please keep in mind that this is a 54 year old used car.  It will need periodic attention just as any classic does.  It is not a new car and will not be fresh and perfect like that new soul sucking Camry your Aunt Betty drives.  If that’s what you are after, this is not your era, nor your car so please move on to something boring.
