1968 Mercury Cougar S - Code
VIN: 8F91S571752
Check out this gorgeous 1968 Mercury Cougar! This Cougar is a Factory S-Code Car that's undergone an extensive 3-year long Rotisserie Restoration! The previous owner of this '68 enjoyed taking to car shows on beautiful days, turning heads every time! Take a look at the beautifully straight body, glossy Grey Metallic Exterior Paint with a Black Stripe and Hood Scoop, 14'' Wheels with Goodyear Eagle GT II Tires, Hideaway Headlights, Chrome Bumpers and Grille, and the Polished Window Trim. Inside, this Mercury is sporting a Beige Leather Interior with a Custom Woodgrain Dashboard, Black Carpeting with Embroidered Floor Mats, Front Bucket Seating, Rear Bench Seating, Front and Rear Seat Belts, AM/FM Radio, Center Console with the Stock Shifter, and a Spare Tire that's mounted in the trunk.
Under the hood sits a 390ci FE V8 Engine with a 780 CFM 4-Barrel Carburetor sitting on top! Power is put to the pavement through a Toploader 4-Speed Manual Transmission and a Ford 9'' Rear End with 3.50:1 Gears and Posi! Driving this Cougar is a blast and it's also equipped with Power Steering and Power Front Disc Brakes. The underside of this '68 looks incredible like its topside and it's overall condition is a testament to the high attention to detail that this Mercury received during the restoration! Take a look underneath to see the beautiful condition of the Floorboards, Frame Members, New Fuel Tank, New Fuel and Brake Lines, Independent Front Suspension, Leaf Spring Rear Suspension, and the Dual Exhaust System with a Crossover Pipe and a Transverse Muffler.
This 1968 Mercury Cougar is a stunning classic that's ready to bring home awards from your local car show! Traveling along with S-Code is its Marti Report, Dealer Invoice, Owner's Manual, and a Photo Album. Any collector or enthusiast would love to own this Cougar and it won't last long!
