Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this very original
1968 Mercury Cougar. With the enormous success of the Mustang, the
Mercury Division needed a sporty car of their own to attract the
younger crowd. The result was a slightly longer, luxury ponycar,
and potential buyers of the new Mercury Cougar were directed to
the, "Sign of the cat." Whereas the Mustang had a sporty new look,
the Mercury was mean and muscular. This '68 is an eye catching
Diamond Blue beauty that falls into the survivor category and has
been well cared for. The legendary 302ci fires right up, runs
strong, and takes you right down memory lane. This cruiser is one
highly optioned Mercury with power steering, power brakes and
factory air-conditioning. Unfortunately, the A/C doesn't currently
work, but everything is there and in its proper place. The interior
is in remarkable condition for its age and very comfortable. You
don't see many Cougars around anymore, and finding a survivor in
this condition isn't easy. This ones going to generate a lot of
attention so you better pounce while you have a chance! This 1968
Mercury Cougar is listed by our Tampa Showroom and can be viewed in
greater detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD video at
