1970 Mercury Cougar Convertible Additional Info:
PRIVATE PARTY SALE -Car is mostly original with necessary maintenance. Runs and drives great. As noted, new brakes, shocks, fuel pump and tires.
Car painted only to make it look new. No accidents. Car garaged and very well maintained.
Under-carriage shows typical surface rust that becomes visible on most new cars in month, but no apparent deep rust. Photos taken in its original form so as not to mask anything. Seller will have car detailed prior to delivery if buyer so chooses.
Only existing issue is a transmission leak. Transmission works excellent.
Original owner's son planned to keep it for ever, but housing change reduced his garage size and no longer has room to keep the car. Currently at nephew's house in garage. Very difficult decision to sell this car, which is a piece of the family's history.
This is the only reason the transmission oil leak has not yet been repaired, hasn't been driven lately, just started and moved a few feet every few weeks. Seller can have oil leak repaired or buyer can choose to take it to his/her own mechanic. Other than this, no other issues that need attention. Car runs and drives great.
These cars are so hard to determine value, therefore we're trying the auction format to sell it at whatever true market value is (what someone is willing to pay). If interested, please make your bids so we can get a true idea of market value for the car. If it doesn't reach the reserve price, assuming there's enough activity to provide a clear reflection of market value, will certainly consider selling to the highest bidder. Thank you.
Great piece of history with very low original mileage.
NOTE: CAR IS LISTED THROUGH OTHER SOURCES. SELLER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY SHOULD THE VEHICLE SELL THROUGH THESE OTHER SOURCES. IN THIS EVENT, ANY EXISTING BIDS WOULD HAVE TO BE CANCELLED.

IT DOES HAVE POWER WINDOWS. AS THERE HAVE BEEN BIDS, E-BAY WILL ONLY ALLOW ME TO ADD NOTES TO THE LISTING, WHICH ARE BEING ADDED 13 HOURS AFTER THE ORIGINAL LISTING WAS PLACED. AGAIN, I APOLOGIZE FOR ANY CONFUSION.************************************
