1970 Mercury Cougar

This 1970 Mercury Cougar has undergone a comprehensive restoration, featuring a blend of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) components and contemporary parts. The exterior showcases a striking red finish complemented with black vinyl top and side stripes along with black interior. This Cougar is powered by a 347 Stroker engine, mated to the Tremec five-speed manual transmission and this car is ready for the road.

Among its noteworthy upgrades are a Holley 600 carburetor, power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes equipped with drilled and slotted rotors, a new wiring harness, and a new clutch. The car also benefits from a rebuilt 9-inch rear end, an enhanced suspension with traction bars, and a interior overhaul. The tilt column has been rebuilt, and notable exterior features include electric hideaway headlights. The rebuild included adding an Eliminator hood scoop, stripes, mirrors, and a spoiler.

Equipped with 17-inch American Racing Torque Thrust wheels wrapped in 245/45 Bridgestone run-flat tires, the Cougar boasts a 3.70 rear end ratio, a Classic Air A/C system for climate control, and an aftermarket stereo featuring Bluetooth connectivity. With a mileage of 4,800 miles since its completion, this tastefully modified Cougar comes with a clean Texas title and is currently available for purchase in Austin, Texas.
