Gateway Classic Cars welcomes this beautiful 1969 Mercury Cougar
XR-7 to its Philadelphia Showroom! Mercury entered the pony car
scene with the new Cougar in 1967 and it ranked high in looks and
performance. Bridging the gap between the sporty Mustang and
luxurious Thunderbirds, the Cougar was received well among buyers
who were seeking a happy medium. 1969 saw the Cougar now offering a
convertible top, as seen on this bright example. Simply operate the
small switch on the center panel above the Kenwood� radio and
choose to have the top up or down. The automatic black top is
complimented by the simulated black leather interior featuring
bucket seats and a gorgeous faux walnut dashboard with black faced
instruments. A fully functioning clock is neatly placed on the
passenger panel and a 6,000 RPM tachometer provides performance
information while driving this slick ride. Place your hand
comfortably on the T-shifter that smoothly operates the automatic
transmission. Powering this strong cat is a 351 CID Windsor V8
engine, new to the engine line up in 1969. Boasting a 250
horsepower, this Cougar roars down the street and has no issues
getting up to speed in a hurry. You certainly won't be missed on
the road as this Cougar is wrapped in Triple Yellow with hints of
Violet Pearl. A sporty black stripe runs down on both sides of the
vehicle and conveys the aggressive nature of this classic. Add
front and rear spoilers to the equation and you've got the makings
of one impressive car! Additional features include Power Brakes,
Power Steering, Seat Belts and Aluminum/Alloy Wheels. To view this
1969 Mercury Cougar XR-7 in greater detail, including HD pictures
