1968 Mercury Cougar Numbers Matching LIME FROST GREEN DAN GURNEY SPECIAL Hello and thanks for looking at my auction. You are bidding on a completely original numbers matching survivor. This car was purchased from my wifes aunt a few years ago and i have not had the time to invest in a restoration that this car deserves, therefore it must go to someone who can appreciate it. This car is original from top to bottom. It was driven and last registered in 1986 and has been garage kept since then. I am the second owner of this car. Please look at the pictures and the video's and ask any questions before bidding. This is a perfect candidate for restoration and will be listed as a no reserve auction. I have the Marti Report and while this car is not a XR-7 it is still a desirable base model with a strong tight 302 motor. 16,920 Miles on this car!!! Mechanicals: I received the car in great condition and only needed to replace the carb to get it running. All the glass is original and perfect. The interior seats are in need of a recover, but the carpets are perfect. This car was driven by a nice old couple who took very good care and maintained this classic. Unfortunately the elements (North East Car) took their toll on the body and there is rust on the bottom rear quarters and on the right side. This car will need some body work to make perfect. I disconnected the heater hoses as they were dry rot, prior to that I did run with the heater on full blast and it worked and was hot. I disconnected to prevent a potential leak. I have new heater hose that will go with the car. ***PLEASE NOTE*** During the last post I received some questions with regard to the integrity of the motor as it was back firing during one of my videos. Like i told the bidder, I recently tuned and timed this motor, I used all new parts including cap, rotor, wires, spark plugs and timed it to factory spec's. She runs great, (see new video) but is missing the choke stove pipe, which i have purchased and will go with the car and the new owner. The car is a little loud due to a hole in the muffler. This car is priced more than fair based on whats out there, plus who else has video and can prove the history of their car. I have the original title and can prove this car has 16,920 miles on it. Lastly, this car is available to view in person anytime. It is stored at my friends shop and with prior notification can be looked at in person. Please email me to work out a time to come see the car. It is located in Rockland county NY 10901.
