1963 Mercury Cougar II prototype...270hp V-8, 4 speed manual. Was moving closer to production when Ford launched the original Mustang, which exceeded all sales expectations, so most efforts on launching other cars were cancelled. Too bad; might have given the Corvette a run for its money.











I like how the coupe's door swoops up to the roof. This design would show up a few years later on the Lamborghini Miura:

Lately I've seen a lot of duplicates here. I guess many are not following and yet seem to want to participate. Makes you look stupid.

I'm sure I've done it. Perused a bunch of different sites and see something interesting in the New Folder. Posted it here. Didn't realize it was from a page or two back.

Always thought I’d like to have a 1930s vintage business coupe like the one under the “Cafe” signs or the ‘37 Ford in the foreground just because I like their looks.
