Please note that experience shows us that the photobucket of over 100 large pixel pictures posted here are in most cases best viewed and downloaded using the very latest and most updated version of the 'Firefox' browser as some other browsers and especially older browser versions are not capable of accommodating the size of the download. Over the years our clients have overwhelmingly been appreciative of our many unaltered large pixel photos posted in our ads and our feedback has been that it is very rare that a dealer will post all but the most flattering of professionally finished photographs. We prefer to post the many photos taken of the car. in sometimes unflattering but natural sunlight. in order for our prospective buyers to be able to see true and reliable images of the car advertised and that is the reason for some seemingly duplicated shots. We trust you will agree.

West Coast Classics are proud to present an original southern California owner example of this obviously always garaged and rust free 1967 Mercury Cougar XR 7 coupe which was originally sold on 7/31/67 at 'Beverly Lincoln Mercury' of Beverly Hills. California to its original southern California owner in its original 'Dark Moss Green Metallic' color with a 'Saddle Haircell' luxury vinyl interior and a 4 Barrel 289 V 8 engine!
