For sale here is a real deal 1970 Competition Gold Cougar Eliminator.
Numbers matching original 351 Cleveland 4V big block motor with the original 4 speed transmission with Hurst shifter. The car was repainted years ago with a good driver quality paint job, the current color is a little more orange than (the original) Competition Gold color. The interior features the original high back bucket seats that are in really nice shape. All dash and exterior lights work as they should including the sequential taillights and hideaway headlights. The car runs and drives as it should, featuring a very strong engine. There is a slight draw on the battery which will drain the car if not driven frequently that I haven't quite solved yet. I have installed a quick battery disconnect that twists on and off to alleviate this issue until it is corrected. There is no radio in the car. There is a slight exhaust leak behind the engine that gives a slight raspy sound to the exhaust - however several people have noted that they like the resulting sound better than a "perfect" exhaust note. This is a very original and truly Rare Eliminator - see the 2 attached Elite Marti report that break down the options 2 different ways showing it is a 1 of 1 car - the only one to be optioned in this manner. A wonderful car to enjoy today and restore to perfection tomorrow - a fun car and Very Fast. Feel free to call my mechanic Rick (443-375-7026) with any questions regarding the vehicle and its condition. |

Mercury rises around sexy Cougar pack
Sat, May 30 2015With a slightly larger body and a more luxurious interior, the Mercury Cougar doesn't carry quite as much cachet among pony car enthusiasts as the venerable Ford Mustang. But don't try to make that argument around Cougar super-fan Mike Brown. Since starting his Cougar collecting in 1988, Brown has become an absolute expert on the model, and he claims to have owned 400 of the Mercury pony cars in that time. Ten of them are in his collection today, not to mention a heap of spare parts in the garage. Check out some of the rarer members of Brown's fleet and allow him to tell you about them in this interesting interview from Electric Federal.
Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute
Thu, 24 Feb 2011Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
