I.
V8 breathing through a polished Holley 4-barrel carburetor, this '68 Cougar is seriously fast.
Behind the car's reliable powerplant, a 3-speed automatic transmission puts torque to the pavement which shifts nice and smooth.
Adding to this Cougar's appeal is the eye-catching two-tone white over green paint scheme, which looks absolutely fantastic after being buffed to a brilliant shine.
The contrasting white decal pinstripes over that light-green hue add some extra flair to the exterior as well! The floors, frame, trunk and jambs on this '68 Cougar are all rock-solid, and all are presented nicely.
Opening the doors reveals a deluxe two-tone dark and light green vinyl interior, complete with split-bench seats that are perfect for cruising.
This '68 Cougar also comes fitted with a variety of options, including power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, a heater
defroster, an aftermarket Grant GT steering wheel, aftermarket AutoGauge accessory gauges, an updated Sony AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth stereo system, a remote chrome driver's mirror, hideaway headlights, vent windows, a rear spoiler, and an aggressive-sounding dual exhaust system.
The car has a sweet staggered stance with 14 AMR wheels up front and 15 AMR wheels out back, and Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 RWL tires cover each wheel for a truly muscular look.
This '68 Merc runs and drives even better than it looks, and those dual exhausts make it sound absolutely wonderful.
If you're looking for a slick classic that is sure to command respect both on the street and your next car show, then this vintage '68 Cougar may be just your style! VIN and Door Tag decode as follows:
