For Sale: 1970 Mercury Cougar in Fredericksburg, Texas

Since September 1999, Street Dreams Texas has been providing classic cars and trucks to a worldwide audience. This 1970 Mercury Cougar Convertible is a striking drop-top finished in eye-catching Competition Orange and backed by a Deluxe Marti Report. Combining classic Cougar styling with desirable options, this is the kind of cruiser that turns heads wherever it goes. Power comes from the H-code 351 Windsor V8, now breathing through an upgraded 4-barrel carburetor. The engine bay is nicely dressed with a chrome air cleaner and Edelbrock chrome valve covers, while the dual H-pipe exhaust gives this Cougar the proper muscle car soundtrack. The engine was rebuilt in 2016 according to receipts from the current longtime owner, adding peace of mind to the driving experience. Power is routed through the smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission and a durable Ford 9-inch rear end with 3.00 gearing. This Cougar's exterior is loaded with desirable visual upgrades including the factory-style hood scoop, chin spoiler, rear deck spoiler, and iconic hide-away headlights. The Competition Orange paint pairs beautifully with the white power convertible top, creating a bold and classic color combination. Riding on 15-inch chrome Magnum 500 wheels, the car has the perfect period-correct stance. Inside, you'll find White Clarion Knit Décor bucket seats and a center console with floor shifter, giving the cockpit a sporty yet upscale feel. Additional comfort and convenience features include SelectAire air conditioning, power windows, power steering, power front disc brakes, dash clock, wood-rim steering wheel, and front sway bar. The white interior still presents nicely and shows well after careful conditioning, though there are a few honest signs of age in lower, less visible areas. The bottom edge of one door panel has a split, and the lower driver-side under-dash panel is brittle with a small missing piece near the door. We previously sold this Cougar to the current owner many years ago, and it has clearly been cared for and maintained during his stewardship, with multiple service receipts included. Street Dreams Texas offers worldwide delivery, insurance, and financing options. Contact us today at 830-997-1950 to make this beautiful Cougar yours.
