A Bargain at Twice the Price: 1986 Mercury Cougar



Like the rest of their Mercury stablemates, '80s Cougars were styled in a manner that can really only be described as confusing, but with the passing of time their weirdness has grown oddly appealing to me. With three days remaining the four bidders here have managed to boost the going price on this example to a formidable seventy-three cents. "Reserve not met."

This was fucking cool.
