MPi-KM Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Does any company make a resin 1/25th '70 Mercury Cougar?
george 53 Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Noel, I can vouch for Kevin's stuff. His Cougar kit is SOOOOO nice, when you see it, you'll think it was an ORIGINAL kit! It's so well cast , you'll think it's plastic! Both Kevin's AND Jeff's Motor City Resins kits are exact in their detail, and casting! If you do go with them you WON'T be dissapointed!
kevin Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Does any company make a resin 1/25th '70 Mercury Cougar? we only have 1 or 2 left here is a picture of the kit & 1 that i built as an elimantor
Ron Hamilton Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 I have one of the convertibles, and I can say it matches up very well to my oriiginal unbuilt hardtop kit. All you need is an AMT '73 Cougar for the rest of the parts, and you're good to go.
Edsel-Dan Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 That should work as I think the 70 is the last of the Original Design. I Think Missing Link offers the 70 Convertible kit, so likely offers the grill/bumpers & tail lights
gtx6970 Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 Missing Link was ( probably still is ) doing a body and hood conversion to build a 1970 Cougar
kevin Posted April 8, 2013 Posted April 8, 2013 Thanks guys...i don't know if the 70 cougar body mold or seats will give up another kit
freakshow12 Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Do they make a 70? I have an original but she is a little tough. May just need parts
dimaxion Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Kevin @ Missing Link offered a '70 Cougar . Contact him for information . Modelhaus offers a ''67 . It is curbside . If these fail , check <rocketfin.com> . Scroll to the bottom , click Model Car , and do a resin search . Thanx ..

gtx6970 Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) original builtups pop on 'that auction site' from time to time . I just got one maybe a year or so ago,,,,,,, best I can remember it was less than $40 I bought it for the sole purpose to do this car Edited February 26, 2014 by gtx6970
kevin Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 Would you want my 70 to work with? are you asking me?
freakshow12 Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Yes. I thought if you had none maybe you wanted a nice body to make more?
DaveM Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 I love '70 Cougars. I have owned them in real life for over a quarter century now. I still have one in the garage that needs a loving restoration if my health and finances hold out. I haven't bought a lot of resin kits lately, because I have a backlog of kits to build, but a '70 Cougar coming back would push me over the edge. I would need at least two of them to build my long lost "babies". One for street and one for strip! It wouldn't be complete, though until I lit it up with the sequential turn signals. Last time I drove my red '70 before selling it, I got pulled over by a young cop who thought I had some illegal aftermarket flasher system in the car. Luckily, an older officer stopped by to look at the car while it was pulled over and explained that his Dad had one of those when he was a little kid, and the lights were supposed to do that!
jeffb Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 kevin is THE cougar freeek.. hes even got ink to prove it!

I have an old built-up cleaned up and ready to go, but I am having problems getting good info on it, so I am going to do a stock Eliminator.
kevin Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Yes. I thought if you had none maybe you wanted a nice body to make more? i have a few of the complete kits some mint condition, that is not the problem...the molds i made have worn out
freakshow12 Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Ok I got ya now! Lol. I would like to get a new hood/ grille and rear setup at some point
