i guess it was made my Ford.... but it was a Mercury if you REALLY want to get tecnical..... i love the 70 Eliminator with a 428 CJ though....



I knew you had it RJ when you posted a friend having a 390/4 speed one... great cars if you ask me.... so I posted to make sure everyone knew the difference

Sheesh, I can remember when I corrected others and now here I am calling it wrong.

Thanks Duane, now I'll stealthily go back and fix all that...

Did I miss something? I didn't know Furd continued to make the Cyclone utilizing the Cougar and Turino bodies.

The Cyclone a long ago friend owned was more of the square-ish Comet body style.

I know it was rumored to be one movin ride.

The orange car is a 70 Cougar Eliminator.. the red one is a 69 Cyclone.

I never heard anyone comment on performance of the turbo Montes from the 1980s? Were they dogs or dawgz?
