The Story Of Cougar 1: The First Mercury Cougar

West Coast Classic Cougar

October 31, 2013
A while back, we sat down with Jim Pinkerton, the owner of the very first production Mercury Cougar (1967 model year), a.k.a. Cougar 1. We hit the “record” button on our cameras and he let loose with an epic tale of how the car was first sold in Canada, its subsequent life there, and how it eventually got into his hands – an intriguing story! He also goes over some of the unique features of the car, and some of the restoration techniques used. It’s a truly beautiful factory show car with more attention to detail than the “average” Cougar. Special thanks to Jim Pinkerton for his time, and for providing most of the images you see in this video from his own collection of Cougar memorabilia.

Cougar Buying Guide Ep.1 – 1970 XR-7 Convertible 428 CJ

West Coast Classic Cougar

April 11, 2013

Having recently bought a 1970 Mercury Cougar XR7 Convertible with a 428 Cobra Jet, Don started going over the car with a fine-toothed comb and discovered a few things he didn’t notice when he first inspected the car with the seller. This was the inspiration for this video, in which we spend some time looking at some of the details, like a forensics team, to find out some important details about this car (both good and bad).
