1968 Mercury Cougar 2171 Miles Grecian Gold Hardtop 302 V8 3 Speed Automatic

1968 Mercury Cougar -- Description

Looking for some unique muscle to bolster your collection? Here's your documented ticket to a glorious, octane-fueled past! Over the last 50 years, this Cougar's solid and stately body has been carefully protected from Mother Nature's worst temper tantrums. That body's paint is far better than you'd expect from five decades-exposed pigment, reflecting a silky Grecian Gold sheen that's spiced with a lot of character. And black pinstriping and a tight vinyl roof highlight original brightwork. Solid power comes courtesy... of a reliable, 302 cubic inch Windsor V8. That proven mill leads an original C4 3-speed, which spins a requisite 8-inch axle that's finished with 3.00 gears. That rear end rolls on a factory-spec suspension that's fitted with factory power steering. And factory drum brakes counter capped steel wheels and mostly-original tires. Grab a seat in this awesome classic and you'll find a correct Nugget interior. The first thing you'll notice is the car's plush bucket seats, which feature comfortable pleats on top of straight frames and firm foam. The second thing you'll notice is a correct console that's centered on a polished T-handle shifter. The third thing you'll notice is a stylish, 2-tone dash that highlights fantastic roulette wheel instrumentation. And in front of the driver, a wood-trimmed steering wheel mixes good form with great function. This has to be one of the lowest-mileage first-generation Cougars in existence.
