Significant 1969 Muscle Cars

[Sportyworty]

Bashton thanks for the invite by my old war horse is far from display material. If you would like 1 of the 50 Lightweight 68.5 cars at the show I can help out possibly. Sounds like a great event.

I would love to have one of these in the show. If you can help us out, we would certainly appreciate it and I am sure there are a lot of folks that would love to see one up close and personal.

For Mercury, you need a 428CJ Cougar Eliminator (1st year Eliminator pkg) or Cyclone Spoiler. A Spoiler II (ala Talladega) would complement your Daytona in the aero wars display, but I think they were all 351/FMX auto cars, which is kind of a letdown given the swoopy body. As for Boss 429 Cougars, I believe only one is found (in pieces) and its been "awaiting restoration" for over a decade.
Good luck

On the contrary. The Shartman car is found and the other car is believed in pieces. And these 2 cars not only would qualify for most significant in 69 from Mercury, but easily could qualify for most significant for 69.

I just read the posts on the Cougar site; what an awesome story and there is even some LaHarpe history in there!

Sooo...anyone out there have a CJ Cougar?

my choice

Looks like we have another winner lined up...think Hurst/Olds!

We still need some AMC, Buick and Mercury representation.

Although we are set with a Pontiac for this part of the show, (the 69 T/A Convertible), we would LOVE to have you join us with your Grand Prix. It certainly is a rare piece and I am sure there are lots of people that would love to see it. I know I would!

I was thinking of my buddy's car in Michigan, he's got a gorgeous '69 GP SJ 428HO 4-speed. It would certainly fit in.
