This classic Ford is a nice departure from the more popular Mustang. The Cougar was first produced by Ford in 1967 and gained popularity in 1969. This was the only generation of Cougars to be produced with covered headlights. In 1967 and 1968, they were deployed using a vacuum canister system that opened and closed the headlamp doors. For 1969 and 1970, a redesigned vacuum system kept the doors down when a vacuum condition existed in the lines, provided by the engine when it was running. If a loss of vacuum occurred, the doors would retract up so that the headlights were visible if the system should fail. This changed improved the vehicle-s safety.

Things were changing - Woodstock attracts more than 350,000 rock-n-roll fans, Chappaquiddick Affair Senator Edward Kennedy, PBS Established, The first man is landed on the moon on the Apollo 11 mission by the United States and Neil Armstrong and Edwin 'Buzz' Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon, and this Cougar was being purchased.

1967 was the very first year that Mercury released the Cougar line which was largely based on the Mustang; however, the Cougar was not just a dolled-up Mustang. It was a bit longer than the Mustang and had subtle changes throughout. The 302 CID V8 packs a punch and, paired with the automatic C4 transmission, this Cougar is ready to drive anywhere!

Over the past decade, there has been lots of time and energy invested into this car to make it a car that can be relied upon to take out on the weekends and to car shows.
