Below here, in a turquoise, is the car with white top and interior:







Bonus car for those who may not prefer white top:







And in another blue, this one with no vinyl or 2-tone painted top:

Man, those are sweet. It's a shame we didn't get any Cougars in 1/24.

The first generation of the Cougar remains the best one. All these are great examples.

Very sharp.
Personally, I could live without the vinyl-tops.
But... 'yes'... I'd have done it in 1:24.

I think the one with white top is painted white, not vinyl.

Give me the second one, in 1/1 and 1/24. In 1968 not too long before I went into the army our neighbor across the street bought a new Cougar. After showing it to my father and me he asked if I wanted to drive it but told me I had to stay in the neighborhood. I drove to the top of the street and parked in my friend's driveway. After talking to him and his mother for a few minutes I asked them to come outside. I showed them the new Cougar my father bought for me since I was going into the army. After a few minutes I told them the truth.
