The Mercury Cougar has worn many hats. Initially debuting as a more upscale pony car, it has also been a personal luxury car later in its life. Sadly, the name bowed out in 2002 and hasn't been seen since then. That's why vehicles such as this first-generation 1969 Mercury Cougar are important pieces of American history. They also make fine classics for those dipping their toes into the world of Sixties and Seventies cars. What's even more appealing is that this car packs just 41,102 miles and still bears its original engine.
The first-generation Cougar only came as a hardtop, in contrast to the Mustang's fastback, hardtop, and convertible trio. However, it sported elements like trick hidden headlamps, a sporty rear spoiler, and what designers called, at the time, European styling. You'll get that all with this 1969 Mercury Cougar in a lustrous teal paint scheme. The interior comes to you in shades of green, black and sports wood trim on the dashboard too. You'll note that it's quite spacious, highlighting the Cougar's luxury mien. The car includes a comprehensive gauge pack, a heating and ventilation system, and a push-button radio as amenities. You'll also find a spacious cargo space behind the passenger cabin, and it appears in decent condition given the car's age.
This 1969 Mercury Cougar packs the original 351ci V8 engine with a 4-barrel carburetor that it left the factory with all those years ago. Drive goes rearwards via a 3-speed automatic gearbox. The car comes with front independent suspension with coil springs, while the rear suspension uses a leaf spring configuration. Braking is via front discs and rear drums. The current owner also tells us that the car has received a recent oil change and rides on new tires.

Mercury is another great American automotive name that has fallen by the wayside. Founded by Edsel Ford in 1938, it was intended to sit between the Ford and Lincoln brands. By 2011, the brand was defunct, but there's no need to shed tears because along the way, Mercury gave us some greats. One of those was the Cougar. It straddled the lines of a pony car and a personal luxury car. And that's why, if you're a Cougar or Mercury fan, this first-generation 1968 Mercury Cougar will be of particular interest. The car has done a tad over 100,000 miles, highlighting the fact that it's meant to be driven. However, these cars are sturdy and reliable, so you need not be apprehensive at its six-figure mileage. The current owner reports that it's received new tires and an oil change, too, further easing any concerns you may have. Let us tell you more about this piece of Sixties history.
Mercury is an American automaker that has long since been mothballed. But the storied brand has been pivotal in the development of America's automotive landscape. The brand was sat between Ford's mainstream lineup and the more luxurious offerings of Lincoln, while the Town Sedan was a medium-priced entrant to the lineup. It was the mid-market family car of its day, and offered a four door sedan in a conventional yet timeless design. Our featured car has reportedly been meticulously restored and features a host of new components that should ensure trouble-free running for many more years to come. This 1939 Mercury Town Sedan features a 350 cubic inch V8 engine, an automatic transmission, and a reported 55,000 miles on the odometer.
The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
The fourth-generation Ford Fairlane of the ‘60s offered a happy middle ground for those who wanted a large sedan or coupe but didn’t want to stretch to the levels that the Galaxie offered. Our featured Ford Fairlane has been on the receiving end of some loving restoration work and reports an all-new interior along with other key components. With a 260ci V8 engine, the owner reports a mileage of 47,200 on the odometer.
Say hello to the 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS. You may be familiar with the name; after all, it’s one of the most iconic cars out there. It was a proper performance car that took the Camaro name to new heights. One of the downsides of this kind of fame is that imitators are aplenty — not all Camaros bore the SS moniker when they left the showroom. However, our featured car is reported to be a true SS. Moreover, it’s undergone a complete restoration to bring it to its current condition.
