1970 Mercury Cougar HT Coupe, 79K ORIGINAL MILES, ALMOST ALL ORIGINAL TIME WARP!

The Old Oregon Motor Company presents: 1970 Mercury Cougar Hardtop. Bright Gold/Tobacco/Houndstooth vinyl top. 79K miles from new...highly original. Power steering and power brakes. Very rare original Houndstooth vinyl top in fairly good condition...it is thought that only about 1500 Cougars originally were ordered with this top. The second lady owner bought this car almost new and drove it until the early 1990's. She then parked it under cover in her basement until it was purchased by the current owner in 2011. He then went about addressing any and all mechanical needs. These include new brakes all around, new steering system, all new hoses and belts, shock absorbers, weatherstripping, fan shroud, battery cables, front end bushings, and alignment. Add-ons include an Edelbrock Performer intake and Edelbrock Thunder-series 4bbl carburetor, American Racing Torque-Thrust type wheels with BF Goodrich Radial T/A rubber, electronic ignition, stereo system, new bumpers, and Magnaflow mufflers. The matching numbers motor has never been out of the car, however, it has been detailed in-place by the current owner. A few years ago someone hit the car in a parking lot and took off. This necessitated painting of the right door, front fender, and hood (the rest of the paint is original with several chips). The hood scoop was added at that time. The rare Houndstooth vinyl top is in good condition with slight shrinkage at the corners. Fender damage to the left rear. The lady owner kept some damp towels in the right rear trunk and that created the rust in the corner of the fender. No other significant rust in the car. Rare windshield wiper delay and Rim-Blow steering wheel. Clock face is clouded over and does not work. The current owner has made sure that this car runs and drives perfectly and it sure does. Great conversation piece and cool ride...don't miss it! Please call Bill Penny at (503) 209-5510 to answer all your questions! 1970 Mercury Cougar HT Coupe, 79K ORIGINAL MILES, ALMOST ALL ORIGINAL TIME WARP!

About Us The Old Oregon Motor Co. takes its name from the original Oregon Motor Company, a Ford dealership established in Portland in 1904. In 1916, the company moved into their permanent showroom located downtown at NW 8th Ave. and Davis Street. Today, the building is an art gallery and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Unlike its namesake, The Old Oregon Motor Co. does not have a retail location but rather is virtual in nature. Our cars can often be found on eBay under our user ID oregonmotorcompany. If you wish to view our inventory in person, showings are by appointment only. Our proprietor, Bill Penny, has been selling classic cars for over 30 years. He has worked as a salesman for some of the most prestigious dealerships on the West Coast. They include The Chequered Flag of Beverly Hills, Silicon Valley Auto Group, the Imperial Palace Auto Collection, Northwest Investment Cars, and Monte Shelton Motor Company. He also has been employed by Keith Martin's Sports Car Market magazine. The Old Oregon Motor Co. was established on January 1st, 2011 and is licensed, bonded, and insured in the State of Oregon under dealer's license number DA 3528. Below is a photo of the original Oregon Motor Company showroom of 1916 as it appears today with the Overland building behind it. Note the faded Overland signage on the defunct auto elevator shaft.
