Untamed Elegance! That was the Mercury marketing slogan at the time, and it still rings true today over 55 years on!

The Mercury Cougar in this its first year of production was the expression of the ultimate luxury Mustang, but in reality it was a whole lot more than that, the longer wheelbase gave a lovely smooth luxury ride and the standard appointments were plentiful, but coming out of the Mercury Lincoln stable the Cougar was designed from the start as a luxury personal car.

This gorgeous example was optioned with the highly desirable top of the range XR7 package comprising of the luxury deep leather appointed interior, wood grain accents, wall to wall carpeting full sports instrument package full floor and roof consoles, and plenty of novelties and courtesy lamps!

This clean example has certainly lived a cherished existence and it shows throughout the entire vehicle, the body is very straight and tight and the paintwork has been sympathetically refinished at some point to a very nice standard that has also stood the test of time, and apart from a few wee chips and marks still looks fantastic in the original frost green metallic hue.

The iconic 289 V8 small block Windsor tucked in the engine bay seems very happy in its work and runs into a nice smooth shifting automatic transmission making this a nicely balanced cruiser.

The chrome and trim all appears to be original fitment and the super cool sequential tail lamps and fold away headlamps are trademark iconic Cougar.

Options ticked in 67 also extended to Air Condition Power Steering and power brakes, which all make the driving experience just that little bit nicer, and make this big cat very user friendly and very easy to live with.

A decent receipts file original hand books original keys and sales literature accompany this magnificent Cougar and help tell her story of her survival, clearly the very few owners she's had cared enough about the car to retain these items with the car for all these decades, which is a nice tribute to a neat old car.

A lovely example that absolutely drives as it looks, they don't get much more honest and unmolested than this example, and good honest old cars are always just that...

A great old highly optioned car with arguably more charm than a comparable Mustang and for less money...

Inspection will impress a genuine buyer.

Note- Original period California Black Licence plates are personalised to the car, this example is registered and on the road in NZ, and comes with its original wheels and hub caps as part of the sale.
