1969 Mercury Cougar Xr-7 5.0l on 2040-cars

1969 Mercury Cougar (Eliminator Model Tribute)

Somehow Steppenwolf singing “Get your motor runnin' Head out on the highway…” sounds better on a radio from 1969. You’re going to have a blast in this beautifully restored Mercury Cougar, because now is the right time for you to get the car you’ve wanted for a long time.

This Cougar is not an actual Eliminator, but it’s just as badass. It has the original equipment as the Eliminator; from the working ram air cowl and dashboard with tach and clock on the glove compartment, to the overhauled 302 engine. Lots of original equipment; like the spoilers, front and back, the wheels and suspension are original too. Even the pristine leather interior was restored to original specs. Remember those hidden headlights with flip up lids and the sequential tail lights? She’s got ‘em.

It also has high performance parts like the water pump, aluminum radiator and suspension bars.

This is a trophy winner with the rumble of the custom exhaust and ceramic headers to the Mercury Orange urethane paint that was restored down to bare metal.

I’ve only had this clean Texas car for 2 years and can’t bare to part with it, but I don’t have the time to get her on the road as much as she deserves.

Note: The carb runs but could use a rebuild or replacement, the RPM tach is not currently working. Newly installed rebuilt piston power steering system has minor hydraulic leak.
