Vehicle Description
The Mercury Cougar initially hit the market in 1967 and was based
on the Ford Mustang. Mercury finally gained its own Pony car and
was an instant hit. The second generation hit the market in 1971
and was a bit larger and was closer in size to its main GM
competitors such as the Olds Cutlass. They were available with a
range of V8 engines and were quite popular, with 180k sold from
1971 till 1973.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this nice and simple Cougar
convertible for your consideration. Finished in a classic shade of
Bright Red, this Cougar definitely catches the eye. The exterior is
in great shape, with great overall paint accented by white
pinstriping, alloy wheels, great chrome, nice convertible top,
tonneau boot cover and chrome side exhaust pipes.
The interior is decent and features white vinyl seats that
unfortunately have some large cracking. Dash is cracked and there
is some paint loss on the door cards. The car features wood look
facia trim, air conditioning, and a JVC stereo. The rear seats are
in great shape.
This car features the solid 351 Cleveland V8 engine mated to the
usually automatic transmission and is a solid runner. The current
owner claims that the vehicle has all new brakes, transmission pan
gasket, and new tie rod ends. The car is a solid runner that needs
just a bit of TLC to make her into a beauty queen. An easy and
affordable way to get into classic car territory!
