Vehicle Description
This 1967 Mercury Cyclone is a hardtop classic that has been given
the right investments to be equal parts power and poise. So check
out everything from the sleek black style to the dual-quad 390 V8,
and soon you'll realize this is the full package classic that loves
to be distinctly irresistible.
The Cyclone was made to be premium and powerful, and so we like the
first impression the paint makes. The black has a solid glossy
style that is both upper-class and intimidating. It only gets
better with a red pinstripe that loves to show off the attractive
kick-up in the profile that starts behind the doors. They even
accessorized the paint nicely with details like the dark tinted
windows to go with the black and the front brake calipers that go
with the pinstripe. It makes for a driver-level classic that shows
off an added feeling of thoughtfulness. The full duality of style
and muscle is seen throughout the full car. They took the Ford
Fairlane's stacked headlight style and gave it a more refined
Mercury look with light housings that rose above the fenders and
grille lines that warped around the bezels. And we love the way the
bright chrome bumpers really hug the form. But the Cyclone loves to
be a power car, and this shows it off with large polished exhaust
tips, hood pins, and upgraded American Racing competition-style
Torq Thrust wheels. Plus, the correct dual scoop hood is pure
muscle car cool.
When a classic hardtop has a dark interior to go with the dark
exterior, we'd usually describe it in something like
mean-as-midnight. But this Mercury also likes to have the nice feel
of a premium classic. Fundamentals like the carpeting, dash, and
door panels have a clean and detailed appearance. You'll especially
like the sporty perforated inserts in the clean upholstery. There
are even nice vintage details like the working dome light, Mercury
AM radio (display only), and air conditioning. This Cyclone loves
to remain a proper driver, and that feeling begins the moment you
slip behind the checkered flag Cyclone steering wheel. There are
nice factory features like front bucket seats and round gauges
dominating the dash. These are joined by upgrades like auxiliary
readouts and a large column-mounted Moon tach.
There are two air scoops on the hood and twin carbs under the hood.
The dual Edelbrock four-barrel carburetors are part of a
performance package that includes an Offenhauser intake, classic
Edelbrock finned valve covers, and Hooker headers feeding the dual
exhaust. And at the center is the mighty Ford/Mercury 390
cubic-inch V8. It's a well-built power package that also includes
supporting components like a newer Cold Case aluminum radiator,
electric fans, and a billet distributor. There's a set of exhaust
cutouts for when you feel like really letting this mighty V8 roar.
But there's also a more cruiser-like nature you can enjoy. The rear
end was recently upgraded to a more all-around friendly 3.00 ratio.
You also have a C6 three-speed automatic transmission, wide BF
Goodrich T/As, and Wilwood front disc brakes.
This is the dual-quad hardtop classic that has a street machine
style without losing the proper Mercury cruiser attitude. Call
