Cougars in the parking lot
No mountain lion pics here. Or for those with simpler minds no older women either...
But you have to ask yourself whose bright idea was it to hold a car show and park the cars in the ramp parking lot???? 428 Eliminator was nice. There also was a '67 GT with 428 badges on it but hood wasn't open. Could have used a nicer paint job and some restoration. |

Those old Cougars were bad-***. Though I am rather fond of the FE big blocks, I must admit the Boss 302 Cougars were super fine as well. Did you see any of those?
Of course, I'd probably sell my hypothetical grandmother even to look upon a Boss 429 Cougar (I think only a couple were ever even made...).

i love these old cougers. but i WANT a '67-'68 FIREBIRD. there is a couger nearby that is in need of a frame-off resto job. ford products are expensive to restore though. so i will hope and pray i find me a firebird or maybe another vette ('68-'72 only).

In high school I had a 55 chev and a friend of mine had a 67 cougar. We were going to race one night. Off the line he blew the rear u-joint on his driveshaft and the driveshaft came up through the rear floor and it wrapped the seat bottom around the shaft before it came off completely. Fun times, he never raced again. I did.

I've always been a fan of the Cougar.....A buddy had one, and it was the only Cougar i'd ever seen with a badge that said "Dan Gurney Special".....I've never seen another one.....I like the Burgundy color with the white top.....Had a Stang almost the same color.

No Boss 302's that I saw. One of them had a 351 W under the hood. The light blue convertible was in nice condition. Some of the others were in original condition and needed some attention.

Closest car to the trailer was the Black 67 GT 428 that was in rough shape. But I have seen a couple enclosed trailers for boats over the years.
Also strange was the Pontiac Solstice parked next to the Eliminator. |

Yeah....I realized I was not a young man anymore when I started looking at 45 year old women and thinking......hmmmmmmm. Back when I was 19, one of my friends' mom hit on me and I thought I was going to puke. What a change a few years brings.
