Family-owned since 1970, this 1969 Mercury Cougar in Light Ivy Yellow combines classic style with modern performance upgrades. The body lines flow with Mercury elegance, accentuated by a black vinyl top in excellent condition. American Racing 17-inch wheels add a performance look, fitted with Continental tires - 225/50R17 up front and 255/45ZR17 in the rear. The distinctive sequential taillights and trademark hideaway headlights complete the iconic Cougar appearance that muscle car fans appreciate.
The black vinyl interior welcomes with newly reupholstered bucket seats showing minimal wear. The factory console houses the shifter while the dashboard remains true to Mercury design with added oil pressure and amp gauges for better monitoring. An AM/FM radio with Bluetooth connectivity sends sounds through 6x9 speakers in the rear and 5-inch kickers up front. New carpet lies underfoot, working well with the well-kept door panels and headliner that maintain their classic appeal.
A 351 Windsor V8 sits with Edelbrock upgrades including aluminum heads and a 600CFM carburetor. The AOD 4-speed automatic transmission links to a 9-inch rear end equipped with 3.50 Traction-Lok differential. JBA mid-length headers connect to the dual exhaust for a great sound. Bilstein shocks on all corners improve handling while a Borgeson steering box modification adds precision. Power disc brakes provide strong stopping ability to match acceleration.
A great blend of classic Mercury muscle with carefully selected modifications, this 1969 Cougar offers both visual appeal and solid performance. With its 351 Windsor V8, AOD transmission, and Light Ivy Yellow exterior, this family-treasured Cougar awaits its next chapter with a new owner. Call today!
