Documented Magazine Featured Eliminator 428 Cobra Jet A/C PS PB
From evil '60s Trans Am racers to Le Mans-winning GTs, the Ford camp has always offered a full portfolio of unique cars and fabled powertrains. And in the world of specialty pony cars, it doesn't get much more powerful or exclusive than a 428 Eliminator. If you can find a documented Cougar Eliminator that's been correctly restored and has all the right hardware, you can get a righteous, investment grade classic with a positive value curve that never seems to end. And if you've ever dreamed of owning a rare pony car that mixes a storied drivetrain with choice options and a solid restoration, you've clicked the right link!
NO COMPETITION
The beneficiary of a professional, ground-up restoration that was completed by the pros at Oxford, Michigan's Turn Key Automotive, this slick cat features a correct layer of vivid Competition Green two-stage that's highlighted by traditional Eliminator war paint. Take one look down the sides of the car's stylish body and it becomes obvious that great care was taken during its two year transition from solid survivor to factory-fresh head turner. Step closer to that body's glossy surfaces and check out sedate pigment which, according to Marti Auto Works, was sprayed on just 18 1970 428/Auto Eliminators. Grab the pivotal pieces of that well-adjusted sheetmetal and experience great fit that's right at home reflecting a summertime car show. Then step back to admire one well-done classic that celebrates over 50 years of all-American cool!
The top option for Mercury's already upscale Cougar, the Eliminator backed proven Ford power with some of Dearborn's best styling. At the leading edge of this slick coupe, a squared spoiler frames ornate parking lamps, a bright bumper and a streamlined blackout grille. At the top of that grille, classy Cougar emblems leads a Satin Black scoop, which rams air toward fresh glass that's framed in straight stainless, cleared with matte wipers and traced by polished rails. At the sides of that glass, bold “ELIMINATOR” callouts join traditional door handles and a body-matched sport mirror to provide an aggressive yet finished appearance. And at the back of the car, a tall wing shades sequential taillights, more cool Cougar regalia and a second bright bumper.
COBRA JET POWER
Hoist the hood and you'll find 428 cubic inches of legendary Cobra Jet V8 that twists an easy 409 horsepower into a quick 483 lb./ft. of torque. The beneficiary of a professional rebuild that was conducted by Dan Jensen of Pure Stock Drags, and fully documented by Muscle Car Enthusiast Magazine, this storied Ford mill literally maximizes every spec set forth by the Pure Stock Drags event. At the top of the blue beast, an unassuming air cleaner shoots wind through a big Holley carburetor. That carb rides a cast iron intake, which feeds cast iron heads that hide healthy 11.28 to 1 compression under aluminum valve covers and an Autolite breather. That compression is created by a factory crank, which spins steel rods and forged pistons under a mild custom-grind cam. Spark is supplied by a hot Pertronix distributor and predictable Autolite Radio Resistance plug wires. Oiling is enhanced by enlarged passages and a high volume pump. Exhaust exits through factory Ford manifolds. And cooling is, likewise, a full factory affair.
COUGAR-LIKE REFLEXES
Take a look under this awesome Merc and you'll find clean, Satin Black floors that are solid, sorted and ready to roll! Just aft of the legendary V8, a correct Merc-O-Matic automatic transmission spins a tough 9-inch axle. A factory-spec suspension centers correct, optional power steering between correct, optional power front disc and rear drum brakes. In the middle of the car, aluminized, true-dual exhaust funnels spent gases through an X-shaped crossover and throaty Pypes mufflers. And at the edges of the car, power meets pavement through correct Argent wheels and F70-14 Goodyear Polyglas Custom Wide Treads.
COMPETITION GREEN AND BLACK HOUNDSTOOTH!
Between the doors, a correct Décor Group interior features correct Hi-Back vinyl seats that, in honor of their timeless assembly line appearance, have been fitted with stylish Black Houndstooth upholstery. In front of those buckets, a symmetrical dash founds rebuilt factory telemetry next correct Selectaire climate control and modern, direct-fit audio. An optional console floats a traditional, cat-branded shifter opposite pick-free side panels and correct deluxe seatbelts. And the driver spins an ornate, wood-trimmed steering wheel.
As one of Dearborn's coolest combinations of performance and style, well-restored Eliminators present excellent opportunity for savvy investors. That opportunity is substantially increased when the car's history and authenticity are so thoroughly documented. Mixing a correct restoration with a strip scorching drivetrain, this incredible coupe is an ideal candidate for rounding out any serious collection.
