1969 Mercury Cougar Eliminator

Here is a genuine muscle-era treasure that serious collectors dream about: this stunning 1969 Mercury Cougar Eliminator, one of just 2,250 built for the model year. Presented in its factory-specified Code 9 Bright Yellow paint over Code 5A Black vinyl bucket seats, this handsomely restored example carries the ultimate credential a Cougar Eliminator can wear — the mighty 428 CI Cobra Jet V-8. Built on April 22, 1969, and originally delivered to North Florida Motor Co. in Jacksonville, Florida, it comes fully documented with a Deluxe Marti Report confirming its original production data, features, and options. Restored to highly correct appearance and specifications throughout — body, paint, interior, engine bay, and undercarriage all present beautifully. With bold Eliminator graphics, front and rear spoilers, and that unmistakable Cobra Jet rumble, this is a blue-chip collectible ready to command attention at any show or auction.
