Description:

Thanks for visiting our listing for a very cool 1970 Mercury Cougar, Helliminator edition.  - This fresh build was acquired, visualized and created in 13 months.  Documented each step of the way, the restoration touched every inch of a very solid California car.  Early Cougars are solid values with easy to source Mustang parts.  This American Hotrod is Fast, Loud and get’s a TON of attention and best of all, there aren’t 10, 000 lookalike cousins in every parking lot.  Built to drive in a 2016 environment, this 1970 Cougar Helliminator is ready to Show, Go and Raise some … She’s not just a pretty face.  Packed under the hood is a potent and fresh 351 pushing 400 HP through a four speed and spitting out burnouts on demand through a posi rear end. - Rarity Cougars initially were upscale Mustangs with nicer interiors and quieter cabins.  You could opt for a bit of fun with a big block or a 4 speed but few people actually did.  Those few performance optioned cars are now quite collectible.  This original 3 pedal car is one of the rare but attainable hotrod big cats. - Exterior.
