Up for sale we have a 1968 Mercury Cougar. This Cougar is nicely done and will make you a great driver with Power Steering and Brakes. In the paragraphs to follow we will give a brief description of the exterior, interior, and driveline of the Mercury, but first we would like to tell you a little about us.
Smoky Mountain Traders is a classic car dealer in east Tennessee. We are family owned, operated, and own our entire inventory, no consignments, and only deal in muscle cars and vintage auto. You can count on us to have 70 to 80 cars at all times. We don't have a big show room that our customers would otherwise pay for. So, that's how we can sell for less than other dealers. To contact us for more information, pictures, or any questions call our office at (865)988-8088 or visit our SmokyMountainTraders website.
We will start off with the exterior of the Cougar. The body is straight with good lines and gaps. This is an older restoration but the Saxony Yellow Paint still looks very nice and is accented by the Black Vinyl top that appears to have been replaced when the car was painted. All the weather stripping and seals are in good condition. The bumpers are also nice along with the stainless. As for the headlight doors, they are working along with the tail lights and turn signals. To finish off the exterior it's sitting on a set of Magnum Wheels with the Cougar center caps and BFGoodrich Red Line Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of the '68. It's all done in black with the correct bucket seats and console with the T Handle Shifter. The seats, door panels, and carpet are all in great condition along with the headliner. Looking at the it all looks correct with a good dash pad. It has the working AM FM Radio and the Wood Wheel. Also, it comes with seat belts front and rear.
Finally, we will look at the driveline of the Mercury. Under the hood, it's powered by a 302 V8 that's mated to a C4 Auto Trans and an 8" Rear End with a 2.78 gear. The engine bay all looks stock down to the York compressor for the AC. All the AC components appear to be there but the compressor is bad. This Cougar has dual exhaust and factory manifolds. For options, it has Power Steering and Power Brakes. When you look under it the floors are under coated but all appear solid along with the frame rails.
