Details

The beautiful Competition Gold (U-code) with black example comes with an Elite Marti Report. Factory writings of the period declared: 'Cougar Eliminator…spoilers hold it down…nothing holds it back.' The Cougar Eliminator was presented to the public as a hardcore performer that had the hardware to match. This Cougar is truly set apart by being reported by Kevin Marti as one of the rare Super Drag Pak cars. The interior features full instrumentation that contains a 8,000-rpm tachometer, oil pressure gauge, rally clock with sweep second hand and E.T. indicator, two-spoke steering wheel and a 'visual check panel' that houses a door-ajar and low-fuel signals. Built in Dearborn, this Eliminator is further shown as a retail order that was constructed in early 1970 and lists Johnson Motors - Iowa Falls Inc. in Iowa Falls, IA, as the receiving dealer. The restored car is presented in its correct colors and the Marti Report also confirms the Eliminator Package, 4-speed close ratio manual transmission with Hurst T-handle (per factory specs), tinted glass throughout, Traction-Lok differential with 4.30:1 gearing, raised white-letter tires, AM/8-track stereo radio and heavy-duty battery. This exceptional and most uncommon muscle machine has also been fitted with the factory-optional styled steel wheels of original design and seen in the period factory literature. The spare matches and the trunk floor is covered with the proper plaid vinyl liner.
