Thanks for stopping by to take a look at one very cool 1970 Mercury Cougar XR7.  This Cougar has returned to us after 10 years in the southeast.  Created as a showcase for the types of vehicles Driven.co would build, Helliminator had the look and feel of a California hotrod for 2015.

Rarity

Muscle cars are drying up fast!  Tens of thousands have been exported. Many have become jewels in vast collections that are never driven and 30 years ago, many went to the crusher.   Five decades down the road, finding a nice canvas can be tough.

This was an optimally optioned Cougar.
