About the 1967–1970 Mercury Cougar
from the generation archive
The first-generation Mercury Cougar (1967-1970) is a pony car built on a stretched Ford Mustang platform, with the wheelbase lengthened 3 inches to 111. Every Cougar left the factory with a V8, starting with the 289 and running up through the 302, 351, 390, and the 427 and 428 Cobra Jet big blocks. Hidden headlamps behind a full-width electric-shaver grille and sequential rear turn signals set it apart from the Mustang, and Motor Trend named it Car of the Year for 1967.
