THE 1970 COUGAR ELIMINATOR, MAY NOT HAVE HAD AS MANY PRODUCED AS ITS MACH ONE MUSTANG COUSIN, BUT IT WAS JUST AS MUCH FUN TO DRIVE. Fun Car, ready to hit the road in wonderful Central California, Home of Famous Highway One Big Sur Coast, Cambria, Hearst Castle and the world famous Paso Robles Wine Country, all in beautiful Northern San Luis Obispo County CA. This Mercury was built as a driver, with a combination of original and redone, not perfect but looks great, very few extras, just raw fun. This car is an Eliminator Clone, built with all the body reinforcements that could be added to help with handling, body and tower flex, along with rear axle torque. Its 428 Big block supplies more power than most people can handle. Steering is quick and progressive, The Ideal sightseeing road car. 2 Door , but has some a rear seat for those tag along folks, large 1970's trunk so you can take your goodies home after you buy a few cases of wine, fantastic handling, sporty looking, always attracts looks and questions, less than 1500 of these made and very few left. Everyone knows a ford Mustang, but few remember its first cousin. This car handles and drive like a true pony car, but one with some refinements in looks and horsepower..

Dave, besides having a fun car to drive, is a first class person. He has so many life experiences and he cares about you as a human being. That shows through and through. He also keeps himself current with what is happening in the world. I envy where he lives on the coast and having that drive up PCH to Monterey. I would recommend him, his fabulous convertible and the scenery nearby. Hope to rent it again someday! Well worth the drive to his home town. Learned a lot more about the modifications that can be done to a Cougar, too. Thanks again, Dave!

Awesome car and a great owner to deal with!! If I’m ever in the area again, I’ll definitely use again!!

David was the BEST! I rented his car as a surprise for my parents, and he is so wonderful to work with as we made arrangements. We will absolutely rent from him and I recommend everyone else do the same!
