Air Induction, Power Steering, Hood Pins, Am Radio, D�cor Group,

an Am RadioOne of just 5 428 Cougar Eliminators ever produced with
Air- let's call it Hens Teeth.This Cougar has seen next to no use
since total restoration and is simply stunning. The pictures do a
fine job telling the story of this car. If you want to find fault,
and I can always find something the gauges are a bit foggy- just
not perfect and fresh- that's about it and I'm picky.For the sake
of the fact that we are never going to pretend to be Ford experts I
am going to reference the 2007 appraisal we have in our hands that
was written by an MCA Gold Card Judge. Some direct quotes-
"Concours quality repaint", "highest standards", options listed,
"Trunk completely restored", "best, correct pieces", engine
compartment concours restored", "no corners cut, no expense
spared", "No one has ever seen a Ram Air/ Airconditioned 428 Cobra
Jet", "For years it was believed you couldn't order a factory air
with the R-code/Ram Air package because NO ONE HAD SEEN ONE".This
is that car!!!!!! Appraised in 2007 for $125,000.00 according to
many price guides the value of these cars EXPLODED in 2014.If you
have to own the best and the RAREST this would be a great car to
fill that order.All inquiries on this car will be held in the
strictest confidence.
